A couple weeks ago on eBay I won a lot of 3 gloves. There was only one picture and minimal description but the leather looked intriguing so I took a shot. The box of gloves finally arrived today after winning them August 1st.
The first glove I pulled out the box was a Hutch glove endorsed by Tom Puehl. Never heard of him so I looked him up in the glove price guide and see that he is "Catalogued." Cool, I think to myself, I found a glove that must be pretty rare. So I went to baseball reference and can't find this guy. Tried a google search, nothing. Used some online databases, including histroical NY Times, nothing. Anybody know know this guy is?? The glove itself is pretty interesting - the fingers are very intricately laced with 3 X's going down each finger - I've seen this on a Warren Spahn model before. The tag is torn and it needs to be repadded but it will be a neat glove when fixed up.
Next glove was a Nokona splitfinger softball model - the stitching in the palm of the glove is gone. This glove has to have the nicest interior lining I've ever put on my hand - if I ever designed my dream glove, the lining from this glove would win out. It is a chocolate brown color and feels awesome on your hand!!!
Last glove was a MacGregor model G113 Ralph Kiner Spider Web with reverse wrist strap. This glove will clean up nice although someone tried to relace it and did such a terrible job, I hope I can figure the right way it goes. If not, I'm sure there are plenty of people around here that can help me out.
