Vintage Ball Caps

[hatflick1]

I am trying to remember this great website offering a wide array of ball caps...old MLB styles, all the vintage minor leagues, prison leagues, women's leagues, WWII teams etc. It's not Cooperstown Collection. I tried that one.
This website has floated in and out of conversations around the Lounge.
Can anyone help me out? I want to pick up a fitted Oklahoma City 89'ers cap.
Thanks!

I posted an deleted the same thing. He says he's not looking for Cooperstown Ballcaps.

Oop. Didn't see C-town on the page. :eusa_doh:

Anyway, it wasn't http://www.bluemarlincorp.com was it? They've done a wide array all right, but only about a dozen teams per season. They've also stopped selling on the website or showing more than a few sample styles.

Oklahoma city 89ers

Thanks Scotrace, there are multiple 89ers caps on that site and as I am a local Oklahoma City guy I have a lot of fond memories of going to 89ers games as a kid. I think I may have to pick out a ball cap.

fftopic: I actually drive by the site of the old 89ers stadium on my way to work every morning...sadly it is now a parking lot on the northwest corner of the Oklahoma state fair.

I've worn out a Cooperstown cap. I had a 1905 Tigers hat like Cobb wore. Had it done in short cut with that short brim. A lot of older guys approach me saying they saw my hat. Before I knew it they would be telling me stories about baseball back in their days. Good quality too, wool and leather took my abuse well. I may have to pick up another one.

Ball caps...

...have been with us a long time. If you look at old pictures, you can see workers going to factories during WWII bare headed, in caps, in fedoras, and in baseball caps.

That said, baseball hats don't seem to need much help. While fedoras are rare as hen's teeth, you can't go out without seeing becoup ball hats.

Cooperstown ballcap Co., or ballcap.com,which is one in the same, is not the same as Cooperstown collection.The offer all the old stuff in a quality hat.You have to be aware that these caps are hand made and not every one is perfect. They need a little breaking in too.They are better at making the older styles.Ebbets make a fine cap too.
