Our expert's notes

The Penguin’s (Danny DeVito) top hat from Tim Burton’s superhero sequel Batman Returns. The Penguin wore his top hat in numerous scenes as part of his ‘respectable’ guise as Oswald Cobblepot, mayoral candidate for Gotham.

Made from black felt and finished with a black silk hatband and bow, the hat features a cream-coloured silk lining with a chamois leather protective strip around the lower portion. “Danny DeVito” is written in black marker on a name tag at the back, beneath which is printed “Anne Gainsford at the Richmond Studio”. Around the forehead area, the chamois is stained with white facial make-up, used to transform DeVito into the enigmatic villain.

The Penguin’s top hat is presented on a black custom display stand. It shows light wear on the exterior, in addition to the make-up residue on the inner lining from production use. Dimensions (displayed): 31cm x 31cm x 43cm (17” x 12 ¼” x 12 ¼”)
