A late '40's Wilson model 2080 glove sold for $75. The early version before Andy Pafko endorsement. Outseam construction and a beast of a glove in its day.

A rare 1930's D&M Red Ruffing model G10 glove sold for $212. Down the line in the retail catalog but a model with super strong factory stamps front and back.

An impossibly rare 1940 Lull $ Hartford Hig Higbe H-web glove sold for $338. Looks to be a Rawlings made glove in super condition. The cloth patch is stellar. L&H Sporting Goods are touted as the oldest sporting goods company in America.

An ebay seller must have bought a baseball memorabilia collection. They have posted dozens of gloves for sale. Most aren't worth mentioning. A few of the good ones have been cherry picked and mentioned previously. This current one slipped by for $30. Seller listed it as unidentified. It's actually a pretty rare Reach model TM glove circa 1941. The Reach logo is there but obviously the seller is not a glover. It's a "Professional" model. The really distinguishing thing is the segmented finger stalls. There are several Spalding models including a Joe DiMaggio on JD's site but I couldn't find another Reach model. The glove is in really nice shape.

A circa 1968 Rawlings Mickey Mantle model DCT HOH base mitt sold for $207. The mitt is in stellar condition except for the two small holes on the back.

[mikesglove]

A super rare teens-twenties Western Sporting Goods Mascot Brand base mitt sold for $150. A buckle web model in stellar condition. A brand out of Chicago, Western Sporting Goods was known primarily for their manufacture of uniforms. Western merged with Thomas E. Wilson Sporting Goods. This would be a mitt in Jared's wheelhouse for sure.

Here's a bit of an odd glove, a purported Willie Mays G101 gamer from circa 1961. While the web has been re-laced, it is of a design that I have never seen before when viewing a G101 model, be it a Mays or a Hank Aaron version. It also relies on a simple 2 hole with button wrist adjustment configuration rather than the adjustable wrist loop or "adjustawrist" style commonly associated with the late 50s early 60s Macgregors. It sold at auction for $23,180.00.

Looks to me like the web is a "SpiderWeb" that was relaced wrong. There are some other photos of Mays gloves here.
