ok boys, show us your dot coders (give us the model and year if you know it) :wink:

xfcb 1979. this glove seems to be oil-tanned from the factory (glovedoc can you comment on this?)

Sweet glove! My guess is 1974.

I'm going with '79...circle R patch came after '74?

Nice PRO-H - 2 dots - 1982 Ed?

E- Did you say HOH only? How about this hideous SG96 with the 'Spin Stopper ! 4 dots :wink:

that would be my guess, the retro-R patch, Pro-H heel stamping and 2 dots. but the missing 1977 catalog would certainly confirm this theory (or glovdocs testimony) very cool older model

Not mine - for sale on Ebay right now:

I think this is 1981.

The latest Source Book (2007 edition) does have a 1977 Rawlings catalog- no Pro H listed, though. It seems to first appear with Rawlings 1978 offerings (which are also in the newer edition).

Great gloves guys! My own collection is mostly antique/vintage, but I love the high-end modern stuff and am a Rawlings fan and user.

By the way, spedrunr, allow me to pay you an unusual compliment. This is something I've noticed on your gloves from eBay for years, and is evident in the pictures posted here:

You sure do tie a beautiful square knot!
