How to make a Jurassic Park Baseball Hat Again, because it's pretty hard to find a baseball cap of the same colors (burnt orange on khaki) without submitting a special order, you might have to make one yourself. What I did is bought a regular khaki baseball hat from K-Mart ($2.99) and hand dyed the bill to the correct color (as seen in the movie). The best method I found is a fabric brush marker from a company in Japan called "Marvy-Uchida" www.uchida.com , about $3 from your local arts & crafts store. About 2 coats should do it. I then got a licensed Jurassic Park Movie Logo patch off the internet ($6.95 + $4 S&H) and had it machine sewn onto the hat. This patch is available (among other sellers) from MTC Toys http://myworld.ebay.com/mtctoys out of Niagra Falls New York. Danny is a great guy, and offered a couple of recommendations of his own. The result is pretty close!  Baseball hat seen worn by Jurassic Park employees.  Another Baseball hat pictured in the film is the one worn by the Park Veterinarian Dr. Harding, which is dark green with a charcoal bill, also sporting the traditional JP Black on Yellow logo.  Nice! There is one other baseball hat seen in the movie, barely visible through the helicopter windshield, but it appears to be a black on yellow logo on a navy blue or light blue hat. (INGEN - Aviation division).  There is another "official" Jurassic Park baseball hat seldom seen by the public. It's a black or navy blue cap with the Red logo which is seen in the bonus features or "The Making of" DVD. There's a shot of "the man himself" Steven Spielberg wearing one, which is almost certainly a promotional or corporate swag issue.  A real one of these is probably "very" collectable. These are some extra hats we had made-up. 
This is a mock up of the same hat Stephen Spielberg is seen wearing behind the camera in the documentary "The Making of Jurassic Park". Patches are genuine 1993 UCS-Amblin I got off of eBay (about 5 dollars each) from two different sellers. Then had them machine sewn on to two K-Mart ($2.99) black baseball hats. I like these patches better than the currently available "Yellow" JP patch cause its about 1/2 inch smaller and just "fits" better on the hat. |
