THE AUTHENTIC ON-FIELD BALLCAP OF THE 1961 NEW YORK YANKEES

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 Yankees logged an epic season in 1961, winning the AL championship and defeating Cincinnati in a 5-game World Series. That year is also famous for Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle’s home run chase, with Maris hitting 61 home runs in the season to beat Babe Ruth’s record. 

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. This Yankees ballcap may look modern, New York’s logo hasn’t changed all that much since 1909, but the construction of it harkens back to the ‘60s with every stitch.
