Just love the hat ... simply gorgeous. As is Mr. Montgomery with it on. It appears at the beginning of The Mystery of Mr. X (1934) when Bob (as Nick) is with his lady friend Jane, as portrayed by Elizabeth Allan. My, how could one say no to that look on Bob's face!
Mystery is a surprisingly good movie. It's seldom included as one of Bob's better movies so you don't expect it to be all that good. Granted it's no great drama, but it is a pleasing mystery with a particularly good action sequence with Nick chasing Mr. X at night. And Bob's wardrobe is superb, the perfect hat for each attire. A top hat is included of course.
This chapeau is my favorite, fits nicely in scenes with Nick chasing down Mr. X. I believe this photo shows him realizing the blood on his glove means Mr. X has stuck once again. Blood on his white glove. What a shame.
The Mystery of Mr. X is streaming on TCM through October 15th. Do watch it if you have the chance.
