Wow...that is the nicest box I have seen for this glove. I personally don't believe the hang tags were included with boxed gloves. The two mint in box version I have seen included a Rawlings plastic bag but no hang tag. I think the tags may have been attached to gloves that were not boxed. Just my speculation based on the limited evidence of the two known in box specimens. Nonetheless I love that box it's crazy how it stayed in such great condition. Perhaps that was made possible by not containing the weight of the glove? There is a Willie Stargell model of the same glove. Obviously that isn't a WSS version but the model is the same. I wonder if a similar box featuring Stargell exists for it?
