There is a KM PRO size 7-1/4 cap on eBay that is being represented as game used by Bobby Bonds. It's far more likely that the cap was used by Rich Hand.

Reasons:

1) Cap is really small. Bonds is known for wearing size 7-1/2 - 7-5/8 caps. This is two or three sizes too small.

2) The Angels were using New Era caps from 1975 & on.

3) Rich Hand played for the Angels in 1973, when KM still made the Angels caps.

I contacted the seller but didn't get a reply.

I do believe this one belonged to Rich Hand also, although I have seen Bonds caps in size 7 1/4 (Giants) and all the way up to 7 1/2 as the years went by.

Thanks,
