The Spalding numbering system was all over the map. Your 4 digit number 1251 was earlier than the 5 digit number 42-111 for example and within the 4 digit numbering the quality of the gloves would reverse itself. Here is a "Whitey Ford" top of the line glove model 1105 to compare to yours. Check out the Spalding section at http://www.baseballglovecollector.com for a model like yours.
