The Cat's (Mike Myers) special effects cable-controlled tilting hat from Bo Welch's Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat. Dressed solely in his tilted hat and oversized bowtie, The Cat visited Sally (Dakota Fanning) and Conrad (Spencer Breslin) to teach them how to have fun which quickly turned into a chaotic string of events.

This hat is made from felt-covered fiberglass with cable controls protruding from under the brim marked "Tilt #2 CF" with an arrow and labeled "You're Wearing a Rita Ryack, C.D.G. Original Design for The Cat in the Hat." When the cable is pulled, the hat bends over. Because of the mechanical components within this hat, it may not be easily worn. This lot exhibits minor stains and discoloration.

Contains mechanical components; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.
