Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! This is a vintage baseball fielder’s glove manufactured by Rawlings, featuring the split-finger design prevalent during the 1930s and 1940s. The glove is constructed from leather with four distinct finger stalls and a thumb, joined by leather lacing. It features thick, rounded finger stalls and crescent-style palm padding. The back of the glove includes a traditional wrist strap secured with an adjustable metal buckle and a metal snap button. The metal button is embossed with a shield-shaped logo containing the diagonal text RAWLINGS. The palm area shows faint remnants of heat-stamped markings, including the numerals 1, 1, and 6, and a partial facsimile signature of a player. A heavily frayed cloth manufacturer’s label is attached to the exterior of the wrist strap.
Condition report:
The glove is in well-used condition with significant wear consistent with age and field use. The leather is heavily patinated, showing widespread scuffing, cracking, and loss of the original finish, particularly at the fingertips and in the pocket. The leather appears dry. The metal Rawlings button exhibits surface oxidation and green verdigris around the base. The leather lacing is worn and appears brittle in sections. The interior lining shows dark discoloration and heavy wear. The cloth manufacturer\'s tag is frayed and the text is illegible.
