Spalding 1B mitt-major ink

Postby rmiller » August 26th, 2008, 9:09 pm

Thrift store. Spalding 42-485 1B mitt. Ron Fairley. Major drag about the ink! :( Any ideas on how this might come off, or no chance; not even worth trying? Should I even waste new lace on it? So sad.

Give us the gate key. I have no gate key.
Fezzik, tear his arms off. Oh, you mean this gate key!

I would have said don't bother but Gary Bennett was a MLB player. Had a short stint on the PawSox and several other teams. Solid backup catcher. This may have been his childhood mitt...? I choose to be optimistic for your sake. :wink:

Gary Bennett (not the MLB player) was in my brothers class so it could be his also, or his dads (Gary also)
