The phrase had been in use since 1835 to describe an unusual medical condition affecting hat manufacturers.Mad as a hatter指一个人出现精神错乱。从1835年起，这个短语就用来形容一种帽子制作者身上患有的病症。In 18th and 19th century England mercury was used in the production of felt, which was used in the manufacturing of hats common of the time.在18世纪和19世纪时期，英国人通常会使用含有汞的毛毡布料制作帽子。一些帽子手工匠因长期接触含汞织物而发生汞中毒，口齿不清、战栗、步履蹒跚、甚至失去意识，而人们就用mad as a hatter来形容出现这类症状的人。这种说法流传至今离不开卡罗尔这个营销天才。Hatter是《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中的一个角色，擅长制帽与剪裁。由于他性格怪诞、疯癫，也被书迷称为Mad Hatter，“疯帽子”。“He was the first children’s book author to license his characters for use on other products, so the characters had individual lives,” says Vega, “The characters become familiar to a group of people wider than the readership of the book.”韦加称，“卡罗尔是第一个将自己的角色授权给其他商品使用的儿童文学作家。这些角色因此有了各自的人生。除了原著读者之外，他们能被更多人所熟知。”
