Sporting Goods was celebrating their 100 year anniversary in 1911, a venerable company like Wilson Sporting Goods was still a few years away from even beginning business. The Tryon Co. was started by George Tryon in 1811. He was a gunsmith by trade and sold his own firearms for hunting. As the company grew, it became apparent that becoming an importer and retailer for other manufacturers was a more lucrative way of doing business. Tryon Co. expanded their line of merchandise to include not only firearms but fish & game and all sorts of outdoorsman gear. By 1906 , Tryon had been through eight different name changes reflecting different family members being involved in the business. In the 1880's Tryon added baseball equipment to their merchandise line. They developed relationships with different baseball glove manufacturers through the years and sold a variety of gloves and mitts under the Tryon label. The left handed model listed is from the 1920's.
