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.

So question - my son is 6 and plays, but obviously we're not to the point of getting one of these gloves yet. Are these basic Rawlings gloves still a thing? I really hope so.

I hadn't clicked on this thread because I couldn't remember.  Then it just popped in my head.  Nice haha moment to see the first post was Dale Murphy.

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.

Look into the Mizzuno power close line of gloves. Reasonably priced and pretty good for kids baseball. They do help in getting the kids to squeeze the glove closed faster/better imo.

 

I had Fernando Valenzuela on my Rawlings glove.

Hell if I can remember, but it was exactly like these, it had the red Rawlings medallion. Probably a 60s dude. It will come to me someday. I probably still have it in the shed.

Probably purchased at Gibson's Discount Center.
