New Era Original Wooden Fitted Hat Sizing Blocks

Now this is something i find pretty interesting, specially since it dates back to the early days of New Era. Shown above are original New Era wooden sizing blocks. These are what New Era use to use to size up the fitted caps before the blocking machine was created. The wooden blocks themselves date back to the early 1920s. I would love to have a few of these sitting around as just something to place my cap on when i walk in the door or as pieces to display certain caps.

The New Era original wooden sizing blocks are for sale now at the New Era Flagship stores for a price of $29.99 and are available in all sizes from 7-8. Via: CtotheJL
