sarajeanne Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I'm interested in humorous hat-tipping scenes from the days when gentlemen wore hats and tipped them excessively while rising and sitting down again in deference to the commotion of ladies and other persons of "position" entering and/or exiting the social gathering, to demonstrate some of the old timey etiquette. I'm sure I've seen this in old movies, but cannot find any under "funny hat-tipping scenes." Got any ideas? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Faiola Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Well, certainly the funniest is the Pete Smith Specialty where Dave O'Brien tips his hat in an elevator. Then, still with his hat off, tips his TOUPEE to the next lady who enters. I think the title is "Have You Ever Wondered?" Then there are the bits where Laurel and Hardy tip or remove their bowlers and then get them mixed up when they go to put them back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
