I just came across this article on the web. Wish someone from the Hall would flip that glove over and take a picture of the back. I'd love to see what it looks like, especially if there is a tag on it.

Great stuff Greg. Thanks for posting. I took this shot at one of the traveling exhibits at FanFest at some All-Star game. Yeah, wish I could see the back.

Neat photo, Jim. I've always wondered if Connie Mack wound up with Rube's glove because he just left all his stuff in the clubhouse when he parted ways with the Athletics. From what I've read about him it wouldn't surprise me. Wish there was a better view of his glove in this picture, too.
