Denny made this statement to me clearly and in person shortly after the auction at the Robert Morris show in Pittsburgh - "it wasn't even a game used glove, it was store model!" That was a number of years ago and I leave room for the possibilty he may have gotten new information or changed his mind - but he said what he said.
