The question I'm asked most-frequently is where to buy a Pilots cap. It used to be that the only accurate reproductions were made by Roman Pro, a company in Massachusetts that is no longer in business. I was at the Mariners team store recently and saw that they had a stock of Pilots caps made by New Era. Unlike New Era's first try, in which all elements were too small, these caps look accurate.
This is a shot of my Roman Pro cap. I had a hard time matching the color, but it will give you a reference as you look for your own cap. The design on the bill is the part that almost everyone has gotten wrong. It looks more like a stalk of wheat than the "scrambled eggs" you'd see on naval-style caps. |

The Pilots live on in a fantastic video game by Stormfront Studios,
called Old Time Baseball.
The game includes every major league team from 1871 to 1981 and there are
also 3-D models of 16 classic stadiums, including old Comiskey Park (the
only one in the game where the Pilots actually
played). Sadly, it's out of print, but you can still find a copy on the Web once in a while. |
