Based on the information provided here we will pull the item for additional research.

Let me confirm a couple things here. Dan Knoll who is probably the foremost authenticator when it comes to vintage game used material indicated he was very comfortable with the cap due to the following things: #1 It is exactally the same from a style perspective as that used by the Cleveland Indians. #2 It is of "pro quality" and #3 it came from the era identified. To his knowledge when it was pointed out to him on eBay there was no mention of it being a "club" cap. I would love to see the eBay write-up if anyone can provide it. I agree if the ad clearly stated that it came with that provenance that is a huge problem.

At this point we will pull it and see what we can find out.
