The Ralph Kiner Official League Draper
& Maynard DB 42 Horsehide cover
baseball was offered in D&M catalogs in
1954. The Ralph Kiner League DB 42
baseball was included in two sport
sets, in 1955. Sport set DGB98 included
the ball, with a juvenile model
fielders glove with a Streamlined
thumb. Sport set DGB95 was the same,
but also came with a 30-inch Midget
League baseball bat.
The Draper and Maynard Company was established in 1840. In 1900
the company opened a new factory in
Plymouth and became a major supplier of
baseball equipment for both amateur and
professional teams. The business closed
in Plymouth in 1937 after the death of
John Maynard. That same year, P.
Goldsmith Sons Company of Cincinnati,
Ohio, purchased the rights to produce
sporting goods bearing the
Draper-Maynard name and Lucky Dog
trademark. The year before they
purchased the Crawford, MacGregor &
Canby Co.
In 1944 Goldsmith added the MacGregor name to their products and became
known as "MacGregor Goldsmith" Finally,
in 1952 the Goldsmith name was dropped
entirely and the company was simply
called MacGregor. In 1952 the Ralph
Kiner Official league baseball was
produced under the Goldsmith name, in
1953 MacGregor,
and D&M in 1954.
MacGregor stopped manufacturing Draper-Maynard products in 1962 when they
became a division of the Brunswick
Corporation
