Brief history of J.A.Dubow Their main product line (like a lot of sporting goods manufacturers of the era) was baseball gloves and protective gear. The general line (which included striking bags and training gloves) was a minor part of the business.
Dubow - The Dubow Glove company was established in 1912 by Jacob Dubow. The company manufactured work gloves and expanded the company in 1918 to include sporting goods. The company name was changed to J.A. Dubow Mfg. The sporting goods division produced quality baseball gloves in the 1920s that drew the endorsements of baseball stars from that era, that included Kiki Cuyler, Johnny Mostil and a Guy Bush glove that featured a sliding strap connecting three fingers. Dubow also manufactured gloves under the Marathon brand sold in Montgomery Wards mail order catalogs. Dubow stopped making gloves by 1960.
