I would be very interested in the St. Paul Saints hat.

I can't believe I missed that auction, there are some really choice caps in there! But I have to say, a few of the caps looked a little screwy to me, namely the 1935 Boston Braves (the "B" is in felt where it should have been embroidered) and the late model Brooklyn cap, which has a thick "B" embroidered on a patch and then stitched to the cap. I am not an alphabet authenticator, but based on the large collection of photographs I've accumulated over the years those don't match anything I've seen before. That said, there are some really gorgeous caps in there - that Dizzy Dean 1937 road model is killer!
