Antique Wilson Baseball Glove Question
Posted on 12/7/25 at 6:30 pm
Posted on 12/7/25 at 6:30 pm
I found an old Wilson baseball glove. An A2200. The webbing has single stitching instead of double stitching. It’s the version of the Canada patent year 1947. Maybe it was made in the 1950s? I don’t know.
Anyway, during an internet search, I cannot find this glove with single stitching on the webbing. All I can find are double stitched webbing.
Value wise it isn’t worth much. However, this is for my baseball junkie grandson and I would love to be able to tell him something about it.
I would upload some photos but can’t figure out how.
Can any of you help me out?
TIA.

It was the glove Don Larson used in the World Series

ChatGPT returns a pretty good bit on it. Nothing earth-shattering, but some interesting stuff.

Yeah, I ran it through Grok but for someone like me who knows NOTHING about this sort of thing it mentioned thick rawhide lacing it points to mid 50s or earlier. However, I don’t know what is considered thick when referring to lacing.
It also said on, like in the late forties and into the fifties, Wilson stuck with single stitching on the A two two zero zero’s webbing—it was simpler and still plenty durable for play back then.
…Is there anything I should try to find out to share with him or just tell him what I think I know?

How are you going to explain how Santa's elves managed to build such an old glove? That it got misplaced way back when USPS used to run Santa's sled before reindeer?

Awwww…. Thank you.
He’s a special guy.
Junior in high school. 17 y/o. Pitcher throwing 94 MPH balls with extreme accuracy. Full ride ball scholarship to Auburn. Invited to many showcases with many MLB scouts there. Many agents chasing him. Due to age restrictions (I don’t understand it all) agents can’t pay him for anything, and Alabama does not permit NIL deals in high school), but he’s unofficially signed with one and his parents will be paying to fly him out for their training.
This kid is just unique.

I am not positive but believe that was an old first basemen's mitt. I had one that belonged to an older relative. It was at my parent's home when I moved out. Who knows what happened to it?

Nice collectable.

My guess from looking at the pics is that this glove pre-dates the 1950s.
It resembles pics of gloves that I've seen from the 1930s. Or perhaps the number 1947 is the correct date.
