Caprico B-399 Jackie Robinson

Too bad all of Jackie's gloves are cheap imports, issued after he had been retired for several years.
This is a clean imported glove and has the best Caprico tag I've ever seen. For some reason, these gloves almost always have the tag disintegrated. I also see these with the endorsement signature worn out. The "Robinson" endorsement in these gloves is stamped right where the ball hits. This one looks like a ball never hit it!
The B-399 is a conventional web glove. Caprico also issued an A-399 model which was a "trap-eze" style web glove. I have one of those, but it's only in fair condition.
