Baseball Players in Hats....Not Ballcaps

[Joshbru3]

I have ALWAYS loved these old baseball pictures. Since I was a child, I have been a huge pre-WW2 baseball fan and most likely got my love of hats from watching movies such as, "The Babe," "Eight Men Out," The Lou Gehrig Story," etc.

If you have photos of baseball players in hats OTHER THAN ballcaps, post them here!

That's really neat!! I love seeing pictures of vintage SOX players. The flange on that hat looks very similar to your "new" Fray.
