So a friend sold this to me this weekend along with a red and blue stitched ball (he picked it up at an estate sale)...
Glove is stamped reach in the palm and has underneath it "genuine horsehide"
*Glove has a two inch web with 4 holes
*Reverse Has a reach button along with a tag
*Leather is almost white

glove is in impeccable condition in my opinion inside and outside leather is extremely soft & exhibits no cracking... (inner palm is like butter)

not a glove expert by any stretch but thought this was a cool one. Its small but fits my hand perfectly.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on date of production and value...

I appreciate your input in advance

Best Regards,
Dave

What is the model number? I can try looking it up. Would say from 1910 era. 300.00 plus on value.

No model number listed that I can see... Just the labeling that I see

The Glove and Ball are available. I am open to offers...

The ball was with the glove when found & I believe they should remain that way!

Ball has red and blue stitching and says "official league ball" on the sweet spot has some writing that I can't make directly underneath "official league ball" and on the panel to the right of official league ball-kind of on a weird angle

Great lot!

Interested but would like to hear what you want for the lot.
Thanks

Writing on the side panel "at a weird angle" could be a minor league president's signature stamp. Could you show a clearer photo of the sweet spot and side panel of the ball? If identifiable, what president it is would help narrow the possible date range, and while it wouldn't prove the age of the glove, could be "corroborating evidence."
