Hello Thud,

Nice wallpaper!

Hey, where is that 1968-ish A2000? Is that it on the bottom right hanging in front of a catcher's mitt? If I didn't want to remain married, I'd make you an offer on that one. Ahhhh well....

This is a sweet glove, but although I love all my gloves and play with them as often as I can, I really love playing with the wife more...So to help you with your priorities, I'll keep my glove and you go play with your wife! :wink: :oops: :shock:

Thud,

That glove is beautiful. You also did a really good-looking relace job. I guess all I can do is sigh in admiration.

Long live the A2000.

Thanks! I had started relacing it before my move to Wyoming, and then I ran out of laces so the glove sat for two months. I finally finished it after all the boxes were unpacked and my wife's worklist for me lulled. This glove is super inside and out.

fuzzy, the one thing that really brought out the leather was the lanolin I used.

On the bottom row. Third catchers mitt in from left. I would like to know the model # on that Rawlings. There's another mitt further to the right hiding behind the A2000. Is that another Rawlings? And what model # is it? Can you show close ups of 'em? When you have the time. I'm impressed with your wall. It's beautiful!!! They all look so healthy. :)
