Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

I have the month of April - I've had a busy week and will try to get caught up here later tonight.

To all who have taken on the responsibilities of listing and showing "Glove of the Month", many thanks as I've enjoyed this section and slight to big thrills of seeing the internet's offerings of gloves, many of which we'd not have spied otherwise. The cyber world has filled our constant yearnings for absorbing the most appealing gloves and for pulling the images down for us (not to forget the prices paid) , I'm sure I can speak for most glovers, has been very rewarding! Merci!
Thanks!

Something I found from watching AKBandit last year and his "glove of the month" posts was his daily postings was like reading the morning paper. As Joe Says, sometimes there are modest finds and sometimes big news but regardless, I enjoyed seeing something new every day.

Victor Wright Ditson sewn web that ended @ $170 - it looks like it has potential to clean up nicely. The owners markings may have been a turn off to some.

Rawlings Johnny Bench prototype model set - these were kind of interesting and the story behind them was fun to read. I think the model in the bottom left is really a cool looking mitt. These sold for $306.

Reach sewn web model with asbestos or wool lining - this looked to be a well made model and sold for a reasonable $155

Set of early equipment including a crescent catchers mitt, ball, mask and pants sold on one bid at $500.

This set sold for just under $79 - looks like a great deal. A nice pair of shin guards plus an interesting Reach mitt with the factory holes in the back and an unusual back enclosure.

Not a glove but since there are a lot of D&M fans out there, I'm sure they enjoyed seeing this scoring tablet sell for $164

This Honus Wagner Store catchers mitt sold at $102.50. I found it interesting because I'd never seen that bat label before on a Wagner Sporting Goods item.

I have that bat logo on the tag of my fielders mitt.

I bought the Wagner catchers mitt. Something a little different for the collection. How do you think it would clean up?

I liked this James Brine Wally Berger glove that sold at $79 - it had a unique look to it with the back enclosure and the web.

Sorry for the lack of updates but the offerings this month have been pretty common, been there done that.

This Horace Partridge full web did real well at $462.57! It features a really nice patch.
