The one Bob Mackie made for the Carol Burnett take-off 35 years later is apparently long gone - so many people borrowed it for parties that it was destroyed! He had to make a copy of it for his FIT show.
How wonderful that it has been restored. I recall the hat is on display at museum but I forget where. Somewhere in the North East? I could be mistaken, maybe the hat is still with the gown?
The hat came up for sale on eBay about a 10-12 years ago. I know because I bid on it - I held the high bid for about 3 days at 3,000ish dollars. I knew it would go higher, it was just fun to be a part of the bidding! I recall it sold for 39,000
