hi all--

does anyone know when the registered "R" symbol first appeared on rawlings tags on major league baseball caps and jerseys??? i would imagine it was sometime in the 50's, but does anyone know the exact year???

thanks in advance for any assistance!!!

It seems the first year with the "R" was the 1963-71 tag. I could not make out the registered symbol before that. That is my initial analysis, I could be wrong. I would say 1963, until proven otherwise.

I stand corrected. I found the "R" on the late 50s-early 60s tagging.
