It has been decades since we have had the opportunity to auction one of these. The adjustable headband features an image of Tetsuharu Kawakami, the God of Batting, wearing a Yomiuri Giants cap that was worn only in 1951 and 1952. The Japanese text consists of Kawakami's surname, Yomiuri Giants and Kobai Caramel.

Condition: There is a stain on Kawakami's forehead, otherwise high grade.
