History: Richmond replaced Baltimore in the IL in '54 when the old minor league Orioles had to make way for the transfer of the Browns from St. Louis (the Browns adopted the traditional "Orioles" name). The Virginians were managed by former White Sox shortstop Luke Appling, who was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1964.

Our caps faithfully replicate historic professional baseball caps from 1900 to 1970 and fit differently than modern caps. Try wrapping a piece of string around your head where a cap would naturally fit and then measure the string to find your size.

Measuring Guide
We offer three kinds of ballcap visors:
Pre-1940 ballcaps were made with soft visors so players could fold them up and put them in their back pockets. Later visors were done in standard (stiff visor) or short (also a soft visor). Check the product details to see which type of visor each cap has.
