25142                1926-1927 Beistle Bat Domino Band Hat Mask
Beistle issued four designs of these Domino Band Hat Masks during the 1926 and 1927 seasons. They then eliminated the band hat and reissued the same four designs as simply Domino Masks for the 1928 through 1931 seasons. (Please refer to a blog post for more information.) The Domino Band Hat Masks are exceedingly rare. I suspect they were not strong sellers as few have made their way onto the secondary market. This is the bat design. Note that the design is printed directly onto the band hat. It isn’t stapled or glued – but all part of a unified design. The mask’s nose has been cleanly detached and is still extant. The colors are bright and the honeycomb interior of the band hat is near mint or better. The band hat is tight, indicating this was seldom and gently used. It measures ~7.25” high by ~11.5” across.

RSIN: 1/Condition: 9 aside from the detached nose

Price: $350
