Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

Offered here for sale is a c.1905, crescent padded, full webbed, buckle backed fielder’s glove with manufacturers patch. This adult sized glove is soft and pliable and features a pristine asbestos lining and all, rolled leather piping. The buckle back wrist strap is all original with only the smallest of period leather reinforcements to its reverse side. The minor, vintage leather reinforcement cannot be seen from any angle of display. The mfg. patch ( I think from New York) is located at the base of the thumb and depicts a golden crown on a black background…the only such patch I have ever seen and the lone glove example with a patch in this unique location.

This glove represents a rare opportunity to add a highly desirable model to any advanced collection of vintage gloves and equipment. It will likely be sometime before another equivalent example becomes available so don’t miss out on this chance here!

PRICE: $1450 OBO…trades for 19th Century items considered as well.

Bump, with a reduction...$1250 BIN/OBO

What's the bottom dollar figure you need to move this glove. I'm interested.

PM and email sent...talk soon,thanks!

Great glove. Man, that tag still has me stumped but I'm always up for a challenge. Although not identical, the only other manufacturer (other than MacGregor) who I can recall using a crown on their logo was Rex Brand. Maybe it is a variation. I sold this one a long time ago but I remember the tag well. Rex is the only thing I can come up with at this point and the time period sure jives.
