How many real or imagined animals are associated with gloves via brand, cloth patches, logo or other stampings? The Stall & Dean mythological winged Griffin Brett brought up would be a good starting point. I could locate a picture if you just want to list something. If you have a picture then even better. I have an obscure one later that may stump some of you.

There are some tough ones there I've never heard of. I'll see what I can do. Here are some easy ones. This Nokona just sold on ebay for $200. Nice mitt with an outstanding logo.
The Dubow "Pelican" model
The Horace Partridge logo is one of my favorites
This one is a little more obscure. A stylish "Al Van Camp" model Wolverine Arms base mitt from ebay a while back.
I never would have thought of the Noah's Ark brand. That is a good one. A "Vince DiMaggio" model below
A Red Goose Shoes display with a stellar white leather glove

A D&M "Red Ruffing" model with "Nick" the bird dog featured on the cloth patch.
A fairly rare Des Moines brand glove with the logo of a horse rearing up.
A very nice Buffalo Leather "Scooper" model.
I found this mitt based on Joe's Catalog Source Book. It is a Swallow model. Maybe this is the mitt Carmi mentioned. Tsumabe means swallow in Japanese.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but found a Red Fox (label) Japan glove yesterday, but didn't buy it. It's a brand distributed by Red Fox uniform company, Desoto, Texas, which once made the uniforms for the Dallas Cowboys. Anyone interested I can buy the glove for about $20 at local antique mall. Glove is in ex. condition.
