The
Stall & Dean No.'s 6915, 6914, electric wielded
steel bar frame, Goggle eye
professional catchers masks were
manufactured from about 1920 to 1930.
The full length face pads, are attached
to the frame with laced leather pad
flaps extending from the pads. In 1931
the model No. 6910 was introduced with
an added sun shade. By 1947 the goggle
eye clear-vision design was replace with
the wide-vision
construction. Around 1957
manufactures started to use snaps to
attach the face pads to the frame. Both
the goggle-eye and wide-vision
masks came with a sun shade riveted to
the top if the frame.
The frame on these "Professional" masks remained the same throughout the
1920s, to 1955. Full wrap-around face
pads were first used iaround 1914, but
did not become common until the 1920s.
Before this time a chin support, a
simple piece of leather, was used.
Design changes throughout the 1920s are
slight and the variety of designs
increases. You will also notice more
use of lacing to secure the face pads.
The Stall & Dean Manufacturing Co. in
Brockton, Mass. was founded by W.T.
Stall and C.H. Dean in 1898. Their
product of sporting goods included;
Base Ball Suits, Gloves, Mitts, Balls
and Bats. The Stall and Dean Company is
one of the oldest sporting goods
manufacturers in America.
