Twins Enterprises and The Souvenir Store
If you have more than a couple of baseball hats, the odds are pretty good that at least one of them comes from Twins Enterprises. The Boston Globe has a great feature on Arthur D'Angelo, one of the two surviving Twins who founded not only that company, but of even more cultural significance, The Souvenir Store outside of Fenway Park, almost certainly the greatest of its ilk. D'Angelo is a millionaire many times over, yet each morning he still goes out and pressure washes the sidewalk in front of the store to remove the previous night's detritus from his storefront.

If memory serves me correctly, I do believe Dcat has his own share of baseball caps.
Yup -- it's a collection that is not diminishing. I probably have more Red Sox caps than 90% of all guys have caps!
