Rawlings Patch

Postby opticsp » November 2nd, 2008, 1:48 pm

I was wondering if any of you have every seen a mid-80s HOH that does not have a Made in the USA patch. It would be stamped Made in the USA, but does not show the patch. I have one such animal!

Here is the auction of the glove:

What gets me is that the wrist section of the glove almost feels like a different leather that the rest of the glove. There are no marks along the wrist that would indicate a replacement patch, and the stitching connecting it to the glove looks original.??

I have several USA 's without the Made in the USA on the patch, but stamped in the palm. Not unusual

If Kenny Jenkins replaced the patch it will not have made in USA on it. I also have several that does not have made in USA on the label.
