Love the collar

Mr. Tabber may be wearing a detachable collar, held in place by a button in the back of the shirt. Whatever it is, it looks stiff enough to use as a shovel.

Habudashu

You just can't find a decent habudashu around town anymore.

Perhaps -

This fellow might be named Tabber, and have been employed at the Raleigh Haberdashery in D.C.
