Billy Cox with a 1950's model. From what I've read it sounds like he could have fielded his position wearing a catcher's mitt. Casey Stengel said of him; "That ain't a third baseman. That's an acrobat."

Lefty Gomez with a 3 finger model. Made me think of the recent topic about Pitcher's Model gloves and their value in covering up the ball. I'll bet this one covered it pretty well.
