Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Hi fellow vintage baseball glove enthusiasts and collectors:

I am new to this forum and am not a vintage baseball collector but am interested in good quality leather gloves, especially vintage ones.

Has anybody ever heard of "Dales" baseball glove made in Japan or know anything about it? I found a "Dales" professional baseball catcher's mitt on facebook marketplace and wanted to get it for my son (he plays minor league baseball) and I am curious about this history or the quality of the glove.

Any insight or information you may have regarding this "Dales" gloves would be much appreciated.
I will try to attach photos on this post and hope you can see them.

Thank you very much in advance.

I looked around a bit on newspapers dot com and couldn't find anything.

Thank you for trying to help out, Tarprc. I appreciate it.

Thank you for your thank you. You're welcome. I'm thinking that Dales might have been a chain of sporting goods stores that sold its own private label gloves.
