Hey, I wanted to share with you all what Mike T. did for me a long time ago. I had the only TEW King Patent at the time but it had a brand new lining in it. It was expertly done but was just too new looking. Mike had that one in his sights for some time and thought it was a shame that it had a new liner in it (and was not shy about letting me know, ha), so when he was restoring one of his own, he saved the old original lining for me. We counted the number of eyelets to make sure it was a perfect match and it was. He had me send it to him and he swapped it out for me along with the laces. I couldn't have been more pleased. There is nothing like using original parts or old materials when working on an old glove. Sorry Mike, not trying to advertise that you are in the restoration business cuz you're not but wanted everyone to know how happy I was and how cool it was of you to fix it properly for me. I appreciate you.
Here are the before and after pics.
