“The Big Cat” was 15 season MLB player who is best known for his time with the New York Yankees. Mize was a member of the Yankees teams that won 5 consecutive World Series championships from 1949-1953. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1981. This size 7 5/8 Yankees Tim McAullife cap has Mize’s number “36” handwritten onto the underside of the brim in black ink for player attribution. The cap has been presented to us as a game model cap and has the proper tagging.
