This
is a vintage 1950s/60s
Mickey Mantle Baseball Glove Made by Rawlings.
"Professional" mm5 Young adult Glove. This Glove is from the
Late 1950s / 1960s. The webbing is more in the style
dated to the 50s. The Mickey Mantle Glove
advertising shown below right is very similar, and might
be the prototype to this glove. The Glove in the ad is
from 1958. The glove reads "professional"
under the Mickey Mantle Facsimile autograph, but
this is just a marketing ploy. It is not a professional
model glove. Most common flaws with Gloves are: loose or broken
lacing/webbing, Dry or cracking leather, ripped
Manufacturer label on back, printing on glove worn out,
and the person who owned of the glove, name on it.
