Any reissue gloves in the works? Got a dream reissue?

Postby okdoak » April 4th, 2009, 4:44 pm

Anybody have any info on whether Akedema (or Nokona or Rawlings) will offer or add to their line of vintage replica gloves? There was a long thread on a possible Rawlings reissue of a Musial Playmaker or Haddix HH awhile back. Anyone know if that's still a possibility or has that gone the way of the Topps card reissues (still waiting for their 1955 set reissue; it's only been 15 years since they reprinted the 1954 set)?! Anyway, as long as this has turned to fantasy, I'd love to see a quality reissue of Stall&Dean's Alexander glove or a Rube Waddell glove on the order of the Joe Jackson D&M that came out years back? Does anybody else like the replicas and have a dream model in mind?

Seen the Dazzy Vance and it is well made. Don't know if I like repros from a collector's stand point. I would probably buy one to play catch with rather than one of my oldies. Have seen the D&M Multi color stitch baseballs and they look great. I could see how they could be "doctored" to pass for originals to new collectors or others :cry: .
