Pops rolled into Pittsburgh in 1962 and made it his home for the next 21 seasons. These two caps date to the middle part of his career. The early '70s example is a mustard-colored home style. It was manufactured by "KM Pro" and has their appropriate tagging in the sweatband with the size "7 3/8." His number "8" is under the brim in black marker. The second, dating from later in the '70s, is a black pill-box style that the Pirates made famous. It was manufactured by "New Era" and is properly tagged with the size being "7 3/8." This one is signed on the brim in gold paint pen. Both show fine use and the autographed one comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
