news-michaeljacksonOf all the unusual photographs of Michael Jackson seen over the years (hair on fire, hyperbaric chamber, kissing Elvis’s daughter), surely one of the more curious is the circa 1980 shot of him sporting a Confederate Union hat on downtown Richmond’s Franklin Street. Style Weekly has the story. (And I had the hat misidentified on first pass. Sorry.–editor)

    Rembrances? Are you saying that this is a Rembrandt of a photo or are you just typing drunk?

    Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but shouldn’t a Confederate cap be gray?
