distributing their athletic equipment,
which included baseball gloves to drug,
hardware and discount stores throughout
the country.
Monaco Company catalogs have
not surfaced to accurately date their
equipment, but there are some hardware
store catalogs that do feature the Yale
line of baseball goods The "discount
store" toy quality baseball gloves have
vinyl piping, and the glove designs are
typically a decade behind the market
designs at the time. The model
numbers for the Fielders gloves start
with the prefix "F," Base Mitts with
the prefix "B," and catchers Mitts the
Prefix "C."
