This is a glove Joe and Dave can add to their inventory of found gloves. I just bought this old glove, it is by Cussins and Fearn from Ohio and it is a Ted Williams Type in block letters. Watch for it on ebay.

In the past year I've come across three four different Cussins and Ferns gloves. This is the first one with a Williams endorsement. The others were all unendorsed gloves.
A little trivia and a little nostalgia about this company- Cussins and Fern was a department store chain whose corporate offices were in Columbus, Ohio. The reason I know this is that my mother was a book keeper in the Columbus offices in the late 50's and early 60's. I'm pretty sure the company was defunct by the early 1970's.
