I'm looking for somebody to make me a tam hat like the one that Mary Tyler Moore (Mary Richards, The Mary Tyler Moore Show) wore, and tossed up into the air in the opening credits of The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

In the meantime, would somebody please provide me with frame captures of the hat from the opening credits of the show? This is something that I've always wanted.

Thank you

If you still want some screencaps, I have a couple of the hat toss I could give you. :)

Leigh Ann,

Yes, I still want some screen caps of the hat toss! :)

I'd buy one, but they don't sell them. Nobody that I know of makes them. They were never marketed/sold. They were never commercially released.

But, all joking/kidding aside, I'd like to come as close to the original hat as possible. If somebody could replicate/duplicate it for me, that would be perfect.

Have you tried eBay? When the statue of Mary was dedicated in Minneapolis, I believe they gave out hats that day. Maybe someone is selling theirs. Just a suggestion. :)

I thought I read somewhere, probably on a thread on this board, that Mary said she had either lost the original hat, or someone had taken it.
If it's the latter, I'm surprised we haven't seen it on ebay yet.

Good luck with your search!

I think Mary lost the hat the night of the 1991 reunion. At the beginning she pulled it out, saying I still have the hat (and threw it) and the "M". Then the hat disappeared!

OMG, that's terrible! Who would clip dear Mary's hat?!?!?!?!
And if that's true, I'm still surprised we haven't seen it on ebay.
If anybody ever sees it for sale, we as a group MUST try to regain it to get it back to MTM!!!!

I want/need a close-up shot of the hat. It's near the end of the shows opening credits. She is standing still, and the camera pans around her head, with a close-up of her hat. IT's right before the toss. The hat is seen in various shots/scenes in the shows opening credits, from different side/angles.

The Mary Tyler Moore Show is one of my favorite shows. I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thank you

Did you ever figure out if there were hats distributed at the MTM statue dedication? I wonder if those hats were copies of the original.
