Oscar Charleston Depicted on Leather Baseball Glove
Charleston is celebrated with this hand-painted portrait on a vintage 1930’s Spalding first base mitt. The power-hitting centerfielder moved over to first base later in his career. The glove is for a left-handed thrower, like Charleston.
Charleston played in the Negro Leagues, starting with his hometown Indianapolis ABC's (American Brewing Company) in 1915.
He played for the ABC’s in the first Negro National League games on May 2, 1920.
He played and managed the mighty Pittsburgh Crawfords in the 1930's and spent nine winter ball seasons in Cuba.
Charleston returned to Indianapolis in the early 1950s as manager of the Indianapolis Clowns.
Charleston's name hand-painted in 1910s-style type.
Charleston was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976. He died in 1954.
