Has anyone ever seen a game used Brooklyn Dodgers cap (the one I came across is allegedly from between 1947 and 1957) which has the "B" logo first attached to a wool backing strip which then is sewn onto the cap, rather than the "B" being directly embroidered onto the cap itself?

Check MEARS Online for the recent article by Dave Grob, "Hats Off to Cap Collectors" for some information regarding this.

Dave: Thanks so much for referring me to the Mears article. It is exactly what I was looking for, and makes me feel a lot more confidant that the Dodgers cap which I have is legitimate.
