Prior to the late 1940s, fielders' gloves did not tie the fingers together, leading to the \"split-finger\" nickname. Gloves from this time were much smaller than modern ones, functioning more like padded extensions of the hand to knock down the ball rather than deep pockets designed to trap it automatically. Old gloves are popular choices for historical films, period dramas, or sports biopics trying to accurately recreate twentieth-century baseball Americana.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pine Lake Auctions LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53050052837685,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/3450\/1173\/files\/KIMG3600.jpg?v=1782838175","url":"https:\/\/pinelakeauctionsllc.com\/products\/vintage-spit-ginger-leather-baseball-glove","provider":"Pine Lake Auctions and Retail LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
