An illustration from the 1926 Rawlings catalog. I don't think the model XLX has surface yet. One would recognize it by the reinforcing stitching on the back of the thumb and fingers and the patented "Cross Lace" web. That is one cool glove! There are a few of the model XL "Hack Wilson" gloves out there that have the Latina cross lace but no reinforcing stitching. There was about a dollar difference in the pricing at the time with the XLX being the top of the line model.
Below is the Latina Cross Lace web Patent.
