propeller beanie
I saw this and began thinking about my childhood.
I never had a propeller beanie.


Our interpretation of the classic Propeller Beanie features alternating patches of bright fabric topped with a silver propeller that spins as you walk (or run). Fits most adult heads and has an elastic chin strap.

I am almost 64 years old and I am by god - finally - gettin' me a propeller beanie.

I'm gonna wear it to the next Democratic committee meeting.
And the next time I have to appear before the planning commission or the city council on a zoning question.
The possibilities are limitless.

I haven't laughed so hard in years.
This is a great website.

1. I have one!
It's covered in tin foil! What can I say, I am a childlike illegal enterprise hypothesizer! :shrug:

I suggest you get one! They are fun & practical. Remember, always childlike, never childish!

5. C'mon! If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing!
Get the glasses! Wear the beanie at all functions, and save the glasses for special occasions! :D
