Yes the codes are correct. The BKBC was used by David Wells on 5/19/03.
BCBC = 1414
BKBC = 1514
That doesnt make sense to me. Especially if the BKBC was used on 5-19-03. It would be EKEA = 0503 = May 2003. I know I have mistaken the E for a B and vice versa.
The gloves with the BCBC codes were obtained from two different sources. One source was a player on the Yankees who was only there in 2003. The second was a prominent dealer with excellent contacts and reputation. Both gloves are correct for the player and year. The David Wells glove with the BKBC code was used on a specific date in 2003. Wells numbered his gloves and auctioned them off for charity after the games. This is glove #6 and was used in Fenway Park on May 19 2003. Maybe someone else has a Wells glove from that year and can check their code. These codes just don't seem to match up with the BLACKHORSE key.
One of the gloves is an Andy Pettite. A quick look at Getty Images shows he used a Wilson Glove from 1996-1999, then a Rawlings (which is a style match to mine) from 2000-2003 with the Yankees. There are not too many pictures but I believe he switched to a TPX when he went to Houston and is still using one. So this style was only used by Pettite from 2000 -2003.
All high end Rawlings gloves are stamped with a code...not just the Pro Issue stuff. I believe the dot code started in the early 70's until the 80's with the Blackhorse code
