OK guys, I can't speak for William, but I kinda think he will agree, we need a glove patch rescue topic on here, I have bought and saved patches off of gloves that have been destroyed by mice, dogs, dry rot, you name it, never know when you might need a replacement for a dandy glove, i.e. that Stall and dean drab horsehider that just went off ebay...and the Killer Bubbles Hargrave that I have that needs an Alex Taylor patch...I know some of you have early reach, D&M, spalding, rawlings patches on rags that will bring close to nothing on ebay but would mean a bunch to some one like myself..
There are some of us that enjoy restoring these rare gloves CORRECTLY with a vintage patch, resewn through the original holes, (sounds intricate, but easier through the original holes, seams spaced perfectly etc..) I know that some boxing gloves from draper and maynard can be donors but kinda want to have a patch at least in the same era from a baseball glove.
Chime in if you have a problem with this, but if I had won that S&D glove I would have a patch on it by spring...
Come on guys Need an Alex Taylor patch!!!
