Default Batting gloves on cards?
I just acquired a large lot of '67s and I was going through them I noticed that most of the ballplayers who were holding a bat (as opposed to a glove or a headshot) were not wearing batting gloves. The ones that were (Olive, etc) seemed to be partial to plain black batting gloves.

So my question is, what is the earliest card picturing a player wearing a batting glove?
