A late teens Reach model 4AB mitt sold for $261. It's a buckle web model with a War Department stamp on the face. Not many mitts with the markings still legible. Overall the mitt is in great shape and is highly sought after.

An unidentified Rawlings glove sold for $28. The first thing noticed is the V-Anchored Web and the 1950's patch. It's going to be A TOTL glove. The seller didn't do himself any favors by the long shot of the front. Zooming in you can see it's a Stan Musial model PM from 1959. The glove looks to be in nice shape.

That Reach war dept. mitt was interesting for sure. I was almost a bidder on it, but once looking a little more closely at the pictures, it seems to me as though the buckleweb has separated from the thumb and was reattached using some black thread. I think it has a repair.

A 1920-30's Stall & Dean buckle web base mitt sold for $249. Looks like someone scrubbed the front looking for a HOF endorsement and gave up halfway. The back however is just super.

A couple I missed from earlier. A pair of rare 1886 catcher's gloves sold for $46,490. The fingerless glove may be a Rawlings. There a photo of another Rawlings fingerless glove on JD's site. the webless full fingered glove may or may not be a Rawlings. Nothing to compare it to. It looks like its padding was sewn in an outeam method. That's really unusual and rare.

A teens Spalding King Patent model glove sold for $445. Pristine front and back although the King Patent lacing looks like it has been replaced with a shoe lace at some point.
