THE AUTHENTIC ON-FIELD BALLCAP OF THE 1958 LOS ANGELES DODGERS

History: Between 1953 and 1963, during what came to be known as the “Decade of Change” in baseball, six teams moved to new cities and four brand new ballclubs joined the majors.

The Dodgers played their first season in Los Angeles in 1958 after leaving their original home in Brooklyn. Although their debut season was a rocky one, they more than recovered, as the following year they took home the World Series.

Ebbets teamed up with Mitchell & Ness to create the Decade of Change Collection, honoring the era with period-accurate ballcaps like this one — handmade in the U.S.A. from genuine wool broadcloth and featuring the flat embroidery style typical of the time. The original LA logo in ‘58 was a bit skinnier than it is now, but the design hasn’t changed at all since the first day the Dodgers took the field in California.
