John Lee Hooker Stage Worn Hat with Live Signature. 1988. This is one of his trademark Fedoras, stage-worn by John Lee during the Arkansas River Blues Festival, and signed by him on brim; there are even ?Afro-Sheen? stains on inside; consigned by the man who was head of security for the Arkansas River Blues Festival from about 1985-92, he had ultimate access to all performers, and wasn?t shy about asking for signatures. A scarce signature on a rare, personally used hat.
