A few pretty nice lower line models:
A Goldsmith model 29 glove sold for $650. Cloth piping, palm only liner but the pristine white leather with superb markings and patch carried the day.

A mint Buffalo Leather "Ted Williams" glove with box sold for $429. Ted Williams gloves are always popular and this one has great eye appeal.

A few rarities:
A Wright & Ditson base mitt sold pretty quickly for $175. I owned this for a while a long time ago. Love the tennis player logo and wrist strap design.

A Spalding "Whitey Ford" model 42-103 glove with box sold for $250. This Trapocket model rarely comes up for auction.

An extra large Wilson model 610 "Pitchers Model" glove sold for $64. This is a military issue to Camp Endicott. Tough to beat this one for quality.

A sewn web Goldsmith "Christy Mathewson" model K glove sold for $831. The glove shows some wear but the black leather, factory stamps and cloth patch are super. It should clean up to be real purdy.

Surprised that Mathewson went so low - thought for sure it would hit at least $1500.

A good buy on all of those gloves. The Nokona should have gone higher IMO
