Great info, thanks.Someone just posted a Rawlings mid-50s MM model fielders glove in the memorabilia pickups section, which still has a lot of "fat" to it, which is how I remember gloves from my youth. Granted this is a first baseman's glove with a very different design, but to my eyes it still looks quite advanced to be a contemporary of the Rawlings's fielder's gloves of that time. The first "modern" glove I remember was the Wilson A2000, and for a number of years that was the glove everybody wanted.
