Am currently reading John Steinbeck's novel "The Wayward Bus" and in it he describes an apprentice mechanic who wore on his head "the crown of a felt hat cut in saw teeth around the edge". I wonder where this practice originated- the only other example I can think of besides Goober is Jughead from the Archie comics! Also, in regard to brand name concealement, the episode comes to mind in which Otis Campbell is being served a hangover remedy from Andy that included Tobasco sauce and Worchestershire sauce with the brand names taped over. I always thought that part was funny without trying to be!
