ORIGINAL GUS AND CALL HATS FOR "LONESOME DOVE"
This image is of the original hats made for Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones, as Gus McCrae and Capt. Woodrow Call - for the original mini-series, "Lonesome Dove", by Manny Gammage, as ordered by Bill Whittliff and Van Broughton Ramsey. Manny took this picture with his old Polaroid Instamatic and kept it over his creasing table for about 10 years. The damage from the steam shows in the streaking and the bubbles in the top right corner. It was scanned several years ago, to prevent losing it totally. It is not clear enough to read the work tickets that are taped to the boxes, probably never was, but the address on the boxes reads, 5003 Overpass Road, Buda, Texas 78610. The background is the original Buda shop, where we made the hats. We were in this location from 1980 to late 1987.
"Lonesome Dove" first aired February 5 - 8, 1989.
