The Drokester pulled it off again with another original. Below is his note.

JD

Made this out of what was left of a 50's D&M G590 Robin Roberts glove, the lining went into an trashed 30's splitfinger and the shell, well it is now alive as a Drokester Handmade baseball!! - DD

Well, what do you guys think?? I am not going to destroy a sound glove to make baseballs. Can't do it. But I have ripped and trashed Glove that is begging to be better that this one. This ball is a gift to a Glover that helped me on my wife's Christmas present. A Southern thing we do down here in Dixie. He is making copies of D&M ads to paste all over the box. Anyone ever put a puzzle together and glue it up? Decopage? Yep he is decopaging the box with copies of old D&M ads, his way!!!!

may need you guys to help, keep fingers crossed, I entered my baseball making skills in a contest, they will decide and then ya get to vote on July 15-21. I picked this ball that I gave to Robbie Leonhardi, some of my best work and I have Nick going for me. Hope he is my "Lucky Dog" in this contest. I just hope there is a baseball fan on the selection committee. will keep you guys updated, and wish me luck. Don't know if you don't try!!!
