Hi Guys & gals, I am a Rookie to this site. This is my 1st posting of hopefully many! Last night I picked up a Reach glove at an estate auction in my hometown of Decatur, Illinois. I NEED HELP! I cant figure out who the endorser is? The first name looks like Mel, and the last name looks like Kose--? Hose--? Any help would be Great. Thanks!

I did some more cleaning on it last night and I believe its Mel Harder, But I cant find a Reach glove for him listed in any of my books? Thanks for the reply!

The "Player Autograph Glove Finder" guide lists Mel Harder as having two Spalding gloves found with his name on them and his name is listed in the Spalding 36-'37 catalog gloves on a 5TV model. Spalding also owned Reach Co. at the time and often put same names on Reach gloves so this could well be a Harder glove.
