A surprising glove popped up in the modern sporting goods section of ebay. It's a circa 1890 fingerless glove in really nice condition. You can see how well padded it is. The wrist strap closure is unique and intact. The glove sold for $2498. Hard to tell the manufacturer. There is a Wright & Ditson model on JD's site that looks similar. Could also be a Spalding. The four pull tabs are unique. The glove seems really well made, nicely stitched with all leather piping. Funny it was found in Northern CA. Not a hot bed of 19th century baseball gear.

A 1958 Rawlings Duke Snider PM model DS glove sold for $450. Looks to be NOS.
