Many hatters during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries suffered from mercury poisoning, as a result of mercury being used in the manufacture of felt hats. As many of the effects of this toxin could appear to be symptoms of 'madness' this is almost certainly the source of the phrase "as mad as a hatter".The Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland probably does nothave mercury poisoning, but is based on an eccentric furniture dealer called Theophilus Carter, whose nick-came was the Mad Hatter.
The Mad Hatters was created in 1935.
Mad Hatters - 1920 was released on: USA: 24 October 1920
In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries hat makers were known as 'hatters'. At that time it mercury was used in the hat making process, but mercury is very toxic and can cause illness which makes the sufferer appear crazy or 'mad'. So many hatters had mercury poisoning that the terms 'as mad as a hatter' and 'mad hatters' entered into common parlance.
