Nice Glove! Someday, I would like to find one of those.
For me--I was lucky enough today to pick up this little baseball stamped with the word Midget on it..had some damage on the backside (small rip and insides exposed) to the "canvas" like material. It's smaller than an official ball and much lighter. I am thinking the early 1930's but am no ball expert so any help dating it would be appreciated.
Was signed as photo shows--not perfect but vintage ink and the only sig on the ball..was in a hope chest of an 87 year old woman who had just passed away recently for the last 50 plus years and I believe it belonged originally to her husband who has passed away several years earlier...There were a few other New York/sports items as well but no family members left to tie anything altogether.
Oh, if only this little ball could talk!
