I owned a glove with the Forrest products patch. Love the pine trees! Ah, mother nature. Reminds me of a glove I had, possibly a Hurricane, with palm trees on the cloth patch. Wish I could find it again.

This 1930's mitt I have had for years features the "Cream City Brand" with "Benjamin Young Sporting Goods, Milwaukee" around the edge of the oval. Only one I've ever seen. Milwaukee is famous for their cream colored brick buildings.

I found this photo from the HOF. It is a purported Joe DIMaggio gamer glove. Looks to be a Rawlings model. I have never seen that style Rawlings patch before. No diagonal lines and red lettering on black. It looks like a faint St. Louis along the bottom.

A cloth patch based on a merger of King Sporting Goods and O'Shea Knitting Mills. The company was based in Chicago. The 1950's USA glove pictured was made by Wilson for King-O'Shea.
