Description: Very hard to find C1940s/50s Dixie Walker endorsed 2 finger glove made by Ol' Reliable Manufacturing. Overall excellent for age. Inside palm is worn. Outside palm is worn but no leather rips or tears. Ol' Reliable oval logo is worn and barely readable. Not many 2 finger gloves are around. Fred E. "Dixie" Walker (September 24, 1910 – May 17, 1982) was an American professional baseball player, coach, scout and minor league manager. He played as a right fielder in Major League Baseball from 1931 to 1949. Although Walker was a five-time All-Star selection, and won a National League batting championship (1944) as well as an RBI championship (1945) as a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers, his accomplishments as a player were overshadowed by his attempt to keep Jackie Robinson from joining the Dodgers in 1947.[1] He also played for the New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, Detroit Tigers and Pittsburgh Pirates. There is little known about the Ol' Reliable Manufacturing company. They made gloves at least from the 1920s to 1950s.
