whose name was on the palm of your glove growing up?

I had a Mike Schmidt h-web with closed back and Holdster. It got stolen out of my locker and was replaced with a Nocona AMG500 true outfield glove,which got stolen with my car from West Campus while I was studying for the bar. 

I now have a heart of the hide JD7.  No name on it, but JD stands for JD Drew.

Damaso Garcia. A2000. 

Signed by Tony Pena, Pedro Guerrero and Juan Marichal. 

I did have one of Pena's catcher's mitts. A Mizuno. Loved that glove. 

Working to get Jonny Gomes to sign my new one. A Nokona.

I had the Dale Murphy then got a Nolan Ryan RBG36 when I was 13 that I still have. I've tried a lot of gloves over the years and went through a lot with my son but have never found a better one than that.

Don't remember a name in the palm ( maybe Don Kessinger?), but this is the glove my dad bought me in the early 70's at Gibson's Sporting in SA while I was in Little League. Around $12 bucks if I remember correctly. Used it all the way through Pony, high school, and freshman year in college. Cheap, but a great glove. 

Like @Scheiss Meister above, we also had a Johnny Bench catcher's glove that was used by my brother and I while catching batting practice.
