Cool photos Greg. I like the modified glove of Deb Garms.

Thanks Mike. Always surprised to find another photo of the Spalding Professional Model.
Here's Johnny Lindell with a huge outlaw web draped over Tommy Henrich's shoulder.

Bill Lee with Ernie Lombardie in 1939. Vim had a Bill Lee signature model. Looks like a match?

"Prince Hal" Schumacher with the 3-finger mitt. The full photo was the basis for his 1933 Goudey card.

Joe Cronin had his signature on a crazy amount of TOTL gloves. D&M, Reach/Spalding, Goldsmith...Here he is with Jimmie Foxx sporting a beauty of a Wilson or Spalding, made by Wilson, with their original H-web.

Emil Verban and Eddie Miller in 1948 with innovative Rawlings gloves for their respective times. Along with the rolled lace web, the RR featured a laced down pocket. The Playmaker had the hinged pad to make it fold over the ball easier and reinforced leather patch on the back below the web. It was the only glove in their line with those features at that time. The RR ad is from 1941, the Playmaker from 1948.
