rawlings black dot date code

[leftygomez]

in the 60's rawlings put a series of black dots on their gloves(thumb) as part of the date code. i am looking at a glove for some serious money with 5 dots on the thumb. it is a mantle XPG6H. it has the modern signature and i think that started in 1965 so it would be after that.? any help as to year of manufacture? thanks

I've been trying really hard to find info on the date code with no luck. I know it's been talked about here on the board but I can't find anything. I too would appreciate any info that could be shared.
