That's a very strong price for that mitt. The nicer condition items from early 1900's are doing well these days

A grommet web fingered glove sold for $400. The glove shows a lot of wear but seems well made. The glove has an interesting design when various lacing schemes were experimented with in the 1920-40's.

A nice D&M "Walter Johnson" model G40 glove sold for $242. I think that is a bargain for that glove. Markings on the front are great. I wonder when they started to stamp the ball player behind the dog.

A 1930's Reach "Triple Face" catchers mitt sold for $149. The mitt is in very good shape. The Triple Face stamp was as bold as can be but the endorsement was tantalizingly elusive to read. Upon closer inspection it may be the 12A "Mickey Cochrane" model. That would be a nice find.

a 1960's MacGregor "Willie Mays" model GC12 sold for $127. This Personal Model has always been popular with collectors. it's large, well made, really stylish and one of the last of MacGregors great run of USA made gloves.

A Rawlings "Steve Garvey" model DCT base mitt was initially bought as a $34 BIN and quickly flipped for $100. The mitt is in great shape. It has the round Rawlings patch so it's a mid to late 70's version but still cool.
