Hi Stasman.......it can never be said that Pete Rose never wore a size 7 3/8 cap. He certainly did.......and the manufacturer of the cap was Wilson.......and the team was the Phillies. You have to consider his hair thickness through the years and when he was with the Phillies, his head of hair was thick. Wilson caps tend to run a bit snug as compared to New Era and Sports Specialties, meaning that a player wearing a size 7 1/4 New Era would need a size 7 3/8 in a Wilson. Also in some previous catalog auctions from major auction houses, Pete Rose Wilson Phillies caps in size 7 3/8 were sold and one had a COA from Rose himself.

Hope this helps.......Thanks.

Walt is very good on knowing caps, and, based on the photos, I'd be agreeing with him.

Let me re phrase Pete Rose Never wore size 7 3/8 with the phillies that I've ever seen.

His size was 7 1/4. His batting helmets were size 7 1/2.

Its possible he wore that size with the reds not the phillies.

IMO I honestly do not like the number 14 as well has almost no wear and that's not typical of a Rose Gamer.

So you went from - the hat was never worn by Rose, period - to, in my opinion the hat was never worn by Rose that I've ever seen, even though you have others explaining that there are examples of Rose wilson caps in the hobby size 7 3/8 with Rose LOA's....
