Like I said, I have found a couple of pictures of his baseball cards from his MLB years and the glove he is wearing on them is black leather. I also found where a black leather glove with his name stitched in the side sold at auction a couple of years ago. That glove was a Louisville Slugger TPX G125 P4G like mine.
So, my question was, if this was game used in the Majors how could I tell since he only appeared in six games? Or, could this have been a glove he used in the Minors......
Anyway, thanks again for your help.

David,
A possible route is to use Smalling's Address Book and write him a letter with a picture of the glove and ask him about it. There may also be someone on the forum who has Smalling and will send you the address.
