Some Nifty Baseball Glove Ads

You're going to love this 1965 ad from Townley Metal and Hardware Co.
A Rawlings Big 8 glove by any other name. Love the Wilson Shooting Star logo.


A nice mash up of a MacGregor FieldMaster glove with the Rawlings HOH logo.

Townley Metal and Hardware Co. was out of Kansas City and had a huge catalog and mail order business.
The TMC brand of gloves were all import models that were altered to look similar to a USA version.
The Wilson Shooting Star logo above is changed to a circle so I guess it's the shooting Comet model.

The Rawlings HOH logo above is changed from "Hide" to "Kids".

Bob Feller in a 1957 transistor radio ad. I just found an old post that explains the CL stamping. It was pro stock made in Chicago.

Bob Feller again from 1939. The gloves at the bottom of the ad also appear in the Great Western catalogs with GW stampings.
The Higgins Expert flex form glove has a Rip Radcliff endorsement in the GW catalogs.
