Frank "Home Run" Baker Glove

[perezfan]

Yes- the era/timing and professional quality certainly don't preclude it from being a Baker gamer. You'll likely need more provenance to prove it, unfortunately. I would search for hi-res photos of Baker using a white King Patent. That would help solidify the process, as it's a pretty rare model.

I wouldn't clean or restore it, either. If it's potentially a Gamer, you want to leave as-is. If its not a Gamer, then some re-lacing would help the overall appearance. But be very careful of any cleaning attempts. The white leather does not respond well to any Lexol, Oil, Vaseline, or other traditional cleaners/conditioners. It will just turn it darker, and you don't want that.

Hope this helps, and best of luck!
