Of interest is the following:
As early as the late 1890s the two owner...s of the then present glove factory, Mr. Jason F. Draper and John F. Maynard, recognized the commercial value of the Arthur Irwin’s (Providence Grays shortstop) concept of a padded glove. The idea of a padded glove for professional baseball might minimize injury while enhancing performance. From this event to several visits to the factory by Boston Red Sox players over the next several decades helped solidify this factory as one of the early, leading sporting goods manufacturers in the United States.
