Alex Rodriguez Fielding Glove Help
Alex Rodriguez Game Used Fielding Glove is my #1 want. Based on the Rawlings Dot System in the thread below, the glove in the below ebay auction shouldn't be a 1998 game used fielding glove (has 4 dots). Signature and inscription I know is authentic. Could easily be an error I guess. There is another glove sitting on ebay for some time now with no dots on it, which I not familiar with. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Dot System:
2 Dot- 2002
1 Dot- 2001
5 Dots- 2000
4 Dots- 1999
3 Dots- 1998

Why don't you just call Mill Creek Sportscards and ask them?
Since THEY originally sold it, per the cert listed in that auction.
They might be able to tell you if the cert matches the glove.
They were pretty much THE only ones selling game used stuff from Aroid and Griffey at that time (1998).

Re: Alex Rodriguez Fielding Glove Help
Been in contact with both Scott and Brent over the years on other early arod stuff. Most of the time, they don't recall many of the specifics relating to the items, as it was many years ago.
Based on the Dot breakdown by years, if correct, I would think the glove couldn't be from 1998.
Thanks for replying!Regards, Tony

Re: Alex Rodriguez Fielding Glove Help
Yup, pretty much the "same" people...........
Jeff was Coast to Coast. He's no longer in business.
Scott at Mill Creek should be able to tell you though.
If I recall, weren't most of those guys all in business together?
Between Brent at Kirkland SC, Jeff at Coast to Coast, and Scott at Mill Creek, they all had the GU Mariner stuff cornered. Might have even all been partners?
Just trying to help.
I think the only real way to know is to call Mill Creek since Brent and Scott work there, but Jeff is gone (from the business) as far as I know.

Re: Alex Rodriguez Fielding Glove Help
In all of my research, I'm aware that many of arod's items were given to those guys back then at later dates and the COA's were done later, some based off the inscriptions. It's possible the glove was inscribed first, then the COA later based on that. I emailed Brent, so maybe he can help.
On this glove, if the DOT breakdown is correct, this glove can't be from 1998.Regards, Tony

Re: Alex Rodriguez Fielding Glove Help
Maybe he got it one year and overlapped it in the next year?
