Sold Out Ebbets Field Flannels Detroit Stars Grounds Crew Jacket

As of the publishing of this listing, Ebbets Field Flannels’ grounds crew jacket is a twill-based piece, and a handsome one at that. This original version of the commemorative replica, however, was hand crafted in Seattle from a significantly lighter, more summer friendly poly/cotton cotton blend; EFF made and stocked these before Lids acquired them in late 2022, rendering each one a collector's item. As for the team represented here, the Detroit Stars were a Negro National League club founded in 1919 by Tenny Blount and Rube Foster, the latter of whom is known today as the “father of black baseball.” They were good, too, clinching the equivalent of a conference championship in their first season and an impressive two consecutive 100-win seasons in 1925 and '26 respectively. * We ship within 24 hours. * We proudly reuse shipping boxes.
