    McKinnon was actually McKinnon Dash, a company in Buffalo, NY that dated back to 1878. They made dashboards for horse drawn buggies. They dropped the buggy end of the business and made dashes and other accessories for automobiles. In 1927 it acquired the Bon Tober Sporting Goods Company of Hartford . CT. That firm was co founded by a Russian immigrant by the name of Meyer Tober in 1912. Baseball gloves were the mainstay of the business. It was after the 1927 acquisition by McKinnon that the firm expanded their line into other leather sporting goods. From the extant samples of their products, it seems that baseball gloves remained the principal line of products.
