Spalding introduced the No. 10-0

The mitt featured a molded face,
patented by assignor to AG Spalding,
Charles M. King. Noted in the hobby as
the "King patent," C.M King invented a
baseball glove with a removable lining,
so the padding can be removed for adjustment, and repair. Also

the model No. 10-0P catchers mitt that
featured an additional King patent. The
perforated palm.
The object of the perforated palm, patent no. 1,056,909 was "to produce a
base ball glove or mitt in which the
palm portion is constructed to present
a more adherent surface in catching a
base ball." This feature was added to
the 10.0 "World Series" molded face catchers
mitt. The "Molded Face" patent no.

padding secured in it's extended
position to keep the shape of the outer
mitt. Both the 10-0, and the 10-0P
World Series catchers mitts featured;
Brown calfskin, leather lace, leather
strap and brass buckle fastening. Reach
