Product Description
A well-made, well-fitted ball cap is like a trusted friend, and an authentic, vintage cap from Ebbets is truly special. We have studied original historic baseball caps and have combined the best features of all the old manufacturers. We use only the finest wool broadcloth (notice how in the rain the outer layer of wool absorbs moisture while the inside of the cap stays dry). Eschewing contemporary stiff-crown styles, out caps have a soft crown, fitting naturally on your head. Undervisors are made of satin and emblems are hand-sewn felt or embroidered, replicating the original hat. As the top Yankee affiliate in the 30s and 40s, the Bears fielded some of the best teams in Minor League history. A short list of Newark greats would include Yogi Berra, Joe Gordon, Charlie Keller, and Tommy Holmes. The Bears played in cozy Ruppert Stadium. In 1927, they posted an impressive record of 90 wins, but still finished 21 1/2 games behind the pennant-winning Buffalo squad. Al Manaux anchored the 1927 Bears' pitching staff, with 25 wins and an ERA of 2.61.
