If you are of the Baby Boomer generation you will remember coonskin caps. All the boys wanted a coonskin cap just like Davy Crockett. This was made popular by the Disney TV show starring Buddy Ebson and Fess Parker who later went on to also play Daniel Boone.
My husband at the age of 9 went up on stage at Egelston Square Theater in Boston and sang the Davy Crockett song ("Born on a mountain top in Tennessee...") and was thrilled to win a coonskin cap.
This is a great gift for a little boy's Easter basket!

I love this! My brother had one and he didn't have to sing for it, but he would have!
