Mr. Lehman was a large, bulky, forceful man, inclined to breathe hard in moments of professional strain. Except for a colored shirt, his clothes were not actually loud, and yet he had the knock of making them seem so. He wore a derby hat. He always wore it. It was part of him. The most imaginative could hardly picture him bareheaded.
- P.G. Wodehouse, Barmy in Wonderland, p.67
