Indiana Jones fedora brought $630,000. Film and TV memorabilia company Propstore said on Friday that the brown felt fedora that actor Harrison Ford wore in the second Indiana Jones movie sold for $630,000 at auction.

According to the item’s online description, the hat from the 1984 film “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” was predicted to sell for between $250,000 and $500,000.

The fedora is from the late stunt performer Dean Ferrandini’s personal collection; Ferrandini wore it when he played Ford’s replacement, Jones, the dashing archaeologist who despises snakes.

Keeping the fedora in place during filming was an “ongoing challenge,” Propstore’s expert said in the online description, and foam pieces were inserted to make it fit more snugly.
