I would like to know if anyone knows which teams were issued which caps?

The Cubs (and I'm sure the White Sox) were issued only in 1967 and were available in Coke, King Size Coke, Fresca, King Size Sprite, and Tab. Some teams were made in 1968 and were even available in Fanta caps.

To clarify my earlier question, I am only aware of Coke, Tab, and Fresca caps available for the Dodgers. Can anyone confirm any Dodgers Sprite caps?

I am looking for the following Fresca caps: L5, L12, L16, L17

I have an opportunity to purchase some Dodgers caps with an "F" prefix to the number. Anyone know what distinguishes the F from the L found on most Dodgers caps? Are they more scarce? Don't see anything mention the F caps in SCD.

I believe the F Dodgers were issued in the Fresno area, they are harder to find than L or D Dodgers. If you get extras, I would be interested in buying or trading for those that I need. Giants can also be found with F, that Fresno set was a combined Dodger-Giants set, no all-stars, since Fresno was between Giant and Dodger country.

I believe the D Dodgers were issued in New Mexico, maybe Arizona too, not sure about that. They are pretty hard to find in their used state. There seems to have been a find of unused Tab caps from the D Dodgers a while ago, those don't seem to be too hard to find. Coke and Fresca can also be found with D caps, not sure about Sprite or others.

L Dodgers are the common Dodgers caps, from the LA area.

Thanks for the info Troy, still haven't solidified the deal yet, unfortunately there aren't any duplicates though.

Was also told that there are caps with a "U" prefix, coming from the New York area, possibly from a University?

[Troy Kirk]

U Yankees are upstate New York area Yankee caps. That set was Yankees and American League All-Stars, the New York City caps were Yankees and Mets.

Here are the "F" caps I was able to secure. The seller has some SF Giants "F" caps that I wasn't interested in as a Dodgers collector. They are cap numbers F28,F30,F32, and F35. If anyone is interested in obtaining some of those "F" Giants caps let me know and I will pass on his contact info.
