When I was a kid, the Pittsburgh Pirates wore the "Chicago Club No. 5" style.
Rambling observations on books, history, movies, transit, obsolete technology, baseball, and anything else that crosses my mind.

In really small print over the prices, I think it says "per dozen". For outfitting a whole team, that's more plausible.
Hi Nick. Good point. Quantity discounts would help. It would be interesting to know the price for a whole team.
Nine players on a team, right? So I guess a dozen covers a team and the coach and a few spares.
That makes sense. Rosters were small back then.
