Duck or not a duck

Postby Rickybulldog » April 14th, 2009, 5:25 pm

Finally got around to post. I discussed with my friends first, but just wanted some other opinions. Picked this glove up on a hunch.

When I got it, I lightly cleaned it and the Ratsch Peerless logo came out and the model number G300T and JAN 1911 as well. I think it's a duck web with the wings/webs clipped. Thoughts? Guesses? Any help to my little mystery?

I think you are absolutely correct. Too bad the web was clipped! :(

The back of the glove sure as hell looks like a duckie design. Are there remnants of leather between the fingers (difficult to tell from the photos)?

The glove cleaned up nicely. I think you have exactly what you thought.
Great glove with a real interesting story, congratulations.
