Milwaukee Braves Caps History
In 1953 the Boston Braves relocated to Milwaukee where they played until moving to Atlanta after the 1965 season. The team carried over the 1952 Boston caps but put an M on the cap in place of the B.

The Braves continued to use Horace Partridge supplied eqyipment in their first year in Milwaukee.

The very first caps probably had a felt M sewn on a blank, dark blue cap. This cap was a spring training cap in 1953 then used by Hank Aaron in in rookie year in '54.
A bit later on, the cap shade becomes a bit lighter and the (thinner) logo is embroidered.
1954
Wilson becomes the supplier in 1954.

CAUTION - NOT AN ORIGINAL CAP
I've seen a few of these sell for big bucks on eBay as original caps. I hate to spoil the party, but this style Wilson tag (with the size on the bottom of the tag itself, and not stamped on the sweatband or on a separate size tag) first appeared around 1973-74. To verify this, just look at teams that changed styles in the 1970's and used Wilson caps, like the Phillies, Reds and, yes, the Atlanta Braves. Also, the logo is on a patch which the team only wore in the early 50's. And to top it off, I had one myself from the Johnny Pesky Collection. It's a replica, I believe these were made for events celebrating the team's 10th year (1975) in Atlanta.
After the 1965 season the Braves relocate to Atlanta.
