Davy Crockett's coonskin cap...............

This line seems to me to be TRP doing what too many accuse him of too much:
showing off some observational erudition.............

Reading Freud or Jung on symbols...and he applies it to those Crockett 
hats........
No thematic resonance here, right? beyond asserting that society is (partly) 
driven
by ...the unconscious?
