Circa 2002-2012, active playing career
Item Type
Columbus Blue Jackets replica baseball-style cap with embroidered logo

Fair condition; heavy fading and skipping of the ink signature due to signing on textured fabric, plus moderate yellowing and staining on the hat fabric
Overall Assessment
This appears to be a signed Rick Nash Blue Jackets cap with moderate collector appeal. The biggest strength is the recognizable player association, while the biggest concern is the poor signature contrast and fabric staining. The sensible next step is obtaining a formal third-party quick opinion before committing to full certification.
