I had Ozzie. It was a hand me down glove from my parents. I used that glove through most of little league. It was so big for me, but man that thing was worn in perfectly.

My dad had a Mickey Mantle glove from when he was a kid. I can't remember what mine was. Will Clark maybe?

I'll name drop for you. My first glove had a Johnny Temple autograph. Later on, I had a Pete Runnels autograph glove.

Very first glove was Ted Williams, then had a Sandy Koufax, and in high school a Brooks Robinson model by Rawlings.

Ernie Banks
Started to rain before a game. He had my glove and was talking to another player. They went into the dugout. A few minutes later he appeared and tossed it to me. Inside the glove was a ball. He signed the glove and the ball he gave me from out of the dugout. Where he signed the glove, I had many other players' names, but his lasted the longest. I guess he knew I'd continue to play with it, since I was a kid, He signed it near the tie on the side of the glove. Didn't play with the ball. Later in life, I gave it away to a friend.

My first glove was a Rawlings I got from Redstick Sports in BR in 1987. It has Dave Winfield's signature on it. I used that glove for years until the padding was beat out of it. It's boxed away with some of my other crap somewhere.

Not 100% but think it was Reggie Jackson in the 80s for me.
