Can't resist...

...a quality basemitt. Love Rawlings DCTs, but these old Wilson A2800s are irresistable.

Let me know if you "need" to reduce your inventory by one! I've been looking for a good USA A2800. Thanks!

That vintage U.S.A Wilson Leather is simply incredible!
Nice Picture. Great mitts, clean patches!

MVALZ, nice slabs of rich thick leather. For some reason, the picture reminds me of the cover of Aerosmith's "Pump" album.

XL's

Postby GloveGypsy » October 23rd, 2008, 1:33 am

The inverted web stamping on that one XL is interesting. Must have been manufactured on a Monday morning.

Also, like you, I have a "never caught a ball, fresh out the box, with the box" XL. It is as stiff as cardboard! My hand has been inside the glove, but has never folded a crease in the pocket to begin the break-in process.

Great gloves, and I really appreciate your sharing the pictures of them, makes the forum come more "alive."
