Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Fellow collector buddy, Scott in New Hampshire, sent me this incredible D&M factory picture to help sleuth. He pointed out the calendar on the wall on the left and wanted to see if the glove community could help determine the year by enhancing the picture somehow. His best guess is February, 1920. What do you think?

It contains more gloves, mitts and boxes than any other picture I can recall.

The picture is 9.1MB so I can't post it here with any clarity but I'm happy to e-mail it to anyone so they can see it in higher resolution. It will still require a touch of enhancing I'm sure. Thanks.

Great photo Jim. My old computer is of no help unfortunately. Don't know if it was brought up on the forum before, but I just found out that a professor from NH named Louise Samaha McCormick published a history of D&M Sporting Goods in 2017. Looks to have lots of photo's from the factory. I just ordered a copy from Amazon.

Good stuff Greg. I have her rough draft. The cover changed when it went to print. She did a great job as it is extremely thorough and well-researched. The subject picture is in the book along with some other amazing factory pics.

Cool. I'm looking forward to reading it.
