I started on this site a while back, mainly as a lurker, but I've now built a nice little collection of entry-level gloves. (Which is a bit ironic, considering I play in a bare-handed 1864 league!)
Found this one a few days ago at a local estate sale. It needed cleaning, but was in fabulous shape, structurally. The Rawlings logo is perfectly intact, as is the inside palm (I forgot to take photos of that this morning, I'll update later).
My primary questions are value. Since it's a store youth model (MM 5), I'm assuming it's not too much. But it is a Mickey Mantle model, and it's in better shape than most if not all I see on Ebay (where they're overpriced and Buy It Now). What do you think?
Also, there's a mild mildew smell. Any thoughts on how to remedy that?
