- “keep it under our hat” was mentioned in 1982 in periodical "Gleanings in Bee Culture";
- President Abraham Lincoln's stove pipe hat, where he kept important papers;
- the ceremonial swordbearer of the Lord Mayor of London (can be dated to 1420), who keeps the key to the Lord Mayor’s seal of office in a special pocket in his hat.
