Sankei Atoms Cotton Cap
Founded in 1988, Ebbets Field Flannels have become renowned for their ability to manufacture exact replicas of genuine mid-Century American sportswear apparel. Inspired by lesser-known independent league teams and dedicated to using original materials and techniques, Ebbets Field Flannels are committed to staying faithful to original designs and have grown to become the finest producer of vintage American baseball attire.
Minor league veteran Dave Roberts joined the Atoms in 1967 and quickly became one of Japan's premier sluggers. Roberts was replaced by Joe Pepitone in 1973. The team was named after the popular Japanese TV show "Atom Boy", and this jersey sports the Atom Boy patch on the left sleeve. The Atoms were a part of the Japanese Central League.
