http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Seattle-Pilots-Gordy-Lund-14-Game-Used-Hat-Cap-/351509702814?
Seller StagsCCC is passing off this 1970s reproduction cap as a game used 1969 hat. Do not be fooled. This is a 1970s replica hat.
I attempted to message the seller, but they have messaging turned off.
I hope that the eventual buyer is aware that the cap is a replica and not an actual gamer.
Oh, and for reference, actual 1969 gamers look like this (thanks to BallCapBlog):

Another thing to note, the ink on the "14" doesn't look like it's been on the cap for 45+ years.

These guys have a store in Kent. They sell only coins and precious metals. I think at one time when they had a bigger store they sold sports stuff. I bought a few coins off them last week. I will mention something to them or if you want call them.

If you could let them know, that'd be great. Ironically, they have one they're calling team issued that might actually be a 1969 gamer.

Someone emailed me (ejsamm) stating that the hats are both good. This is incorrect. The hat listed as game used with "14" under the brim is not a 1969 hat. It's missing very specific elements that are found in 1969 Pilots hats.

Does it have anything to do with the stitching on the hat itself? I do see a difference there.

Yes. If there is no stitching, it's a 1970s reproduction.

1986&2004Bosox (ejsamm@yahoo.com) keeps emailing me that the hat is good. He said that the visor is stitched, and I'm just not seeing it.
Now, this is a sincere question: Am I really not seeing stitching that is supposedly here? Here's the photo from the listing:

I'm simply not seeing the 8 rows of stitching on the visor.

Looking at the underneath photo, there looks to be no stitching.
