Don't hold me to the fire on this one, but I think the RBG60 has the conventional back, whereas the RBG36 has the Fastback and Holdster index finger slot.

Take a look at the RBG60 on ebay right now ....

I would have to agree with Cowboy on the back of the glove. I've never seen an open back RBG36.

The RBG60 seems to be a little bit smaller than the RBG36 and, just from looking at them, the leather seems not quite as nice.

Looking through the catalogs, the RBG36 always had the higer retail price of the two, anywhere from $5 to $20 more depending on the year.
