X-mas presents under my tree

[dwknowles]

This is another post I had that got knocked off the other server, thought I would repost and see what everyone thought.

Here are a few things I received for Christmas.

Bill Doak 2 patch glove.

Glove was very dry is missing pocket and had melted crayon on it. I have only worked on it a few hours, and the crayon is gone, and it is loosing up nicely. It appears to be marked as an H model, it appears to be an older one as it doesn't have the palm thumb seam reinforcement patch. I am looking for picks of H model's with the web so I can see what H-web style I am looking for, and I am interested in buying an H-web to fit it, if someone has a junker glove with good webbing.


This item is super cool http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :IT&ih=014


It isn't an ashtray but rather a bronzed glove and a baseball holder. The glove might be a crescent padded turn of the century style? I really don't know for sure as I have never seen one up close, but this has no web, no grommets or holes for there to be a web. In fact there is no lacing anywhere. It appears to be stitched close at the bottom, and is about the size of my hand.

What do you guys think it is? At first glance I thought maybe a softball glove but the size and lack of any laces makes me wonder.

My father-in-law also bought me a Frankie Frisch from JD that Brett had on E-bay a bit back

so it was a pretty good x-mas for me

That would be tempting to peal off that bronzing & see what you have. Either way that's a neat oddball piece to have around.
