Goldin has adjusted the auction description, I thus removed it from my original post.
I have sent the proper evidence to Goldin proving beyond any doubt that the hat in question is from early 1953, including proper documentation. I also provided a 1951 Hodges image, which is now used in the auction (1951 was the first year the Dodgers wore McAuliffe hats on field, featuring for the first time the logo seen on the hat in the auction).
It is beyond my understanding though, how somebody can state that by studying the Dodgers B this can only be attributed to the 1957 season... a 2 minute Ebay search proves the opposite, the same goes for the supposedly 1952 Robinson cap.
