Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Not the greatest of gloves but he hangs on my wall and his number hangs in the rafters at Cameron Indoor. There are not many players that can make that claim. [img][IMG]http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa441/Bill247PR/RawlingsPM28Front.jpg[/img][/img]

Here's what the glove looks like on my wall. The autograph reads "Dick Groat Duke Univ. 1952"

Groat was a headups player for two fine teams on the Cardinals and Pirates. Steady defensively and a smart batter. See the other post here on Bill Werber. They have something in common. I believe Groat was a lifetime user of Rawlings gloves.
