Only current fitted cap: black Mets cap with blue bill (I think hstencil got the black-bill model). Lost my vintage Brooklyn '30s and all-blue Mets.
Adjustable: battered Mets oldie, current Cubs, SABR logo tan-and-red, what I think is a Team Cuba (with flag logo, great fun at VFW halls), brown Brooklyn Dodgers football ('40s vintage).
Likely next purchases: Brooklyn Cyclones and Expos tricoleur.

In the interests of full disclosure: I have a trucker hat but it's a non-ironic one (I think), since it's an Iowa Hawkeyes 1984 Rose Bowl hat that I've had since 1984. I haven't worn it in a long time. I also own a black fitted Iowa baseball cap (baseball being about as big of a sport here as in Indiana). I am planning to pick up a Tigers hat the first chance I get later this summer, most likely this guy:

I also lost a Birmingham Black Barons adjustable that the Mets gave out one Negro Leagues Day (a prom owhich seems to have been retired). There's a Negro Leagues store on 5th Ave in Brooklyn I've never shopped at.
There's a really great Oakland Oaks shirt I saw in a SF window once but didn't buy -- were they solely an ABA franchise, or was there a minor-league baseball team with that moniker too? I've seen the ABA shirt with the same anthropomorphic acorn, but it's different from the one I bypassed.

The Oakland Oaks were part of the Pacific Coast League professional baseball league. My XGF's (hstencil's least favorite XGF of mine) grandfather was a pitcher for them and she has a picture of him getting a swinging strike 3 on Joe Dimaggio (then of the SF Seals).
Dr. Morbs, I can easily procure the t-shirt because I know exactly what store you were looking at (hippy dippy t-shirt store 2 doors northwest from the corner of Haight/Ashbury).

How about pins, does anyone have a pin(s) on their hat(s)? I've got a mini Bernie Williams jersey pin on my Yankees cap.

my mom dated a dude who held the longest errorless streak at 2b for awhile when he played amateur ball in sd. i also think a relative of my mom's played a bit for the white sox in the early 1900's.

Further, I bought a Milwaukee Braves hat w/ the big white "M" in the middle, and it is good. I still can't bring myself to get a NY Giants. Kinda want an Expos too, but I worry about the white crown getting grody in a hurry
