Saddle up and get ready to ride into LA: John Wayne memorabilia is set to be auctioned off October 6-7 by Heritage Auctions. Among the items to be auctioned? The hat shown at left. That’s right, you could own The Duke’s hat.

Let’s say you won this auction: what do you do with this hat? Do you put it in a display case, build a special climate-controlled room, and not allow visitors to get to close to it? Or do you put it on, hop on a horse, and live out all of your childhood fantasies? (Personally, if you’re ready to drop $25K on a hat, I know a guy who would be more than happy to provide you with a legendary hat of your very own.)

You can the AP story and see some more images of the items to be auctioned at NPR.org, or start placing bids online at Heritage Auctions’ site.
