League: Eastern Colored League
History: The roots of the Brooklyn Royal Giants go back to 1905, the pre-league era of Black baseball. They were a founding member of the second major league – the Eastern Colored League – in 1923. Among the greats that put on the Brooklyn uniform were Dick “Cannonball” Reading, “Smokey” Joe Williams, and John Henry “Pop” Lloyd. This short-visor cap is made from some original pinstripe baseball fabric we have had in our archives for many years.
