Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

this is my second purchase from shigeko with us-sports4world.com , an ichiro pattern y-web deep blue and silver made of european kip , i went with the med. size -firm heel similar to my mzp-82 , note the space between the index and middlefinger along with a bit smaller pattern size etc. compared to the us-version ichiro -gmp7 counterpart , i believe the gzp-52 was the last true ichiro version avail to the us, the wide deep pockett , a bit shorter and lighter makes it a fav. of mine for softball ! will get more pics up soon ! ndations ?

i was hoping it would post ! been working on this for a couple hours now ,i can send by email at this time , but it may have to wait for the wife to get home with my cave man computer skillz !

Photobucket is pretty easy. Do the "img" , paste the link from photobucket (the one from the "direct link" box), then "img" after.

www.photobucket.com[/q uote] thank you for the help rmiller , ill get them up this evening after work .

no problem. It only took me 4 months to figure it out myself. And I say it's easy

I only screwed up one post before I figured it out so I must be a genius.

In Photobucket, click on the box that says IMG Code (4th down under the photo). A little box will pop up that says "copied". Now go and post your reply on this forum and put the link in the post - you can do this by right clicking with your mouse and choosing "paste" or you can use the keys Ctrl and v at the same time on your keyboard ( shortcut for copy). Very easy once you know how!

thank you for all of your help with the pics , have 1 up so far more to come tonight or tomm .

Not to be blunt, but what did you pay for this one in the end? They look cool, but quite expensive

no worries about being blunt its on the website and open to the public ! i spent a little over 500 on this glove ,it was difficult for me to justify early on but over a couple months i put some money away under the wifes radar !i actually purchased 2 other gloves prior to saving for this custom wich in both accounts i was not happy with either and the 2-300 price tag on them -i couldnt find what i really wanted in the us offerings ,i figured i keep my gloves for years and want a glove i get excited to put on .

So, I’m curious…Did the wife’s radar go up with the glove in the house? Or is the glove itself under the radar while you formulate a plan?

Good luck, dude!

classic , i will have the glove mon or tue ,shigeko took pics prior to shipment , fact is she purchased a gmp7 for me for my birthday after hearing i was thinking about purchasing an ichiro glove while talking to my brother ,she had no idea i was speaking about this custom glove pattern , in the end she said she wouldnt take it personally if i sold it to purchase a blue one ! yes , simple terms = blue glove , not japanese made custom kip leather glove in the ichiro pattern , that would have rang some bells.

Beautiful glove. That's cool how you got it in dodger colors. I'm single now but I know if I was married the wife would flip if she saw the 10 gloves in the softball bag
