Till the end of time ?

[Moonlight Graham]

I see everyone here is so obsessed with gloves (and I'd say I'm not the last in that field), so here is a question or two for you all:

1. What could stop you from thinking about baseball gloves all the time ?
2. If there was any glove that could satisfy you for good and put your mind to rest what would it be ?

(The truth is I don't know what I can come up with to calm down my wife and prevent her from cutting the internet connection or hiding my credit card...)

"Listen, I'll stop when..." WHEN ??

Moonlight,
Here's my answers to your questions.
# 1. Death
#2. Rawlings XPG3-H in mint condition.

I don't know what my answer to number one would be, but number two is a snap!

A mint Rawlings HH "Kitten" personal Model. By the way, if anyone might happen to have one, I would be interested.....(sorry had to add that in)

Well... death ? Isn't it a little too radical ? I can't say that to my wife if I don't want to wake up dead tomorrow !! But thank God, her English is awful

Good Question,
I've never really had the feeling of being done collecting gloves, but I did have that feeling with cards. A few years ago I managed to pick up a really nice Topps "57 Mantle card, a real beauty, just like the one my Mom tossed out (sure she was doing me a tremendous favor) back in the mid 60's. Once I landed that card, I just felt so at ease with card collecting. I really didn't need any others beyond what I had squirreled away post the big throw out. Gloves on the other hand seem to be an ongoing source of discovery. I know I'm not done. Problem is, many of the ones I want to acquire are very expensive. When I started, the routine was delivery after delivery. Maybe 10 or 12 gloves (or more) a month. Now if I can pick up one nice every couple of months, I feel like things are about right.

Great question to ponder. I think a duck web fielder's glove and a Spalding figural trophy would keep my mind at ease for a year. But, after a while I'd get the itch again. Take care!

i'd let me 10 mo daughter sit in it like a chair
