Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Mizuno sales rep: "....hey Robin, Yoshii Tsubota is swamped with glove orders, all we have is this cheapy story model....."

Yount: "....no problem, i can play with a piece of cardboard if need be...."

MSR: "....as soon as we have your glove ready, we'll ship it global priority and you should have it by the playoffs....at least it looks like the real deal..."

One of those run-of-the-mill Ruth Spaldings sold for THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS!?

Hey, if anybody wants one of these "rare gems", I have four of them collecting dust. You can take all four for the bargain price of $1000.

Here's another example of the "rare gem" (so far failing to attract an opening bid of $9.99)

I am always impressed with the $77,000 Mantle that has popped up several times lately on eBay.
