Plus, I would ask for a better close-up of the apparent cut to the top of the 4th finger. I also see faint initials or ink writing both on the middle finger and the wrist strap. Ink writing (even if faded) is a personal deal-killer to me as a collector, but would not necessarily bother others.
If indeed a youth glove, I would knock about $400 off of the values stated above... $800 - $1K. Still, a real "looker".
Just my opinion, and hope it's helpful.

Here are couple additional photos. It does indeed look like the piping is cloth. Included is a nice shot of the split in the finger. I still need to get a reading on the diameter in inches to confirm young or adult. Appreciate the help from everyone.
