This cap was used by the Cubs star shortstop Don Kessinger during the 1968 season. It is possible that it is the very cap he is wearing in the 1968 photo of him during spring training. Enjoy, Cub fans.
Looks great! How did you obtain it? Does it have any markings underneath the bill? Thanks!
Aaron, I got the cap in the mid seventies from an older guy that lived in my neighborhood. He had some connection to the Cubs because every now and then he would have a bat, autographed baseballs etc. The cap is made by Wilson, the company that was the supplier to many teams at the time. Under the bill is Kessinger's # 11
