Perfect storm for a bunch of Angels players: the team switched identities - and caps - from "Los Angeles" to "California" at the very end of the 1965 season, then unloaded literally half the 40-man roster by midseason 1967.

There are a lot of L.A./California Angels who are not known in color in the "CA" cap other than in the Dexter 1966 team postcard set - and one of them is Lee (they also got him in spring training, 1967, before his five-game stint with the Dodgers, and that one will go to the photo place on Tuesday).
