Arthur Irwin and Draper Maynard
There was a post a year or two ago about Irwin and his glove. Someone added pictures of the glove from front of a 1884 catalog and also pictures of his glove from a display cabinet at the Draper Maynard Museum building. The pictures have since been removed and I would appreciate if someone could post them here or email me at mtinney@sbcglobal.net. I am doing some research on Irwin and have found a few interesting items but would like more info. I'll supply a link to my finished article when I am done. thanks

Hey Mike,
Hope you find them. Can't wait to read it. This is the only picture I have from 1890. JD |

Mike, The envelope that Jim posted is part of my collection. I thought you might like to see the other side. Good Luck with your article. Mike Ellis

Outstanding! Thanks for the pic of the other side Mike. That is cool.

thanks for both pics. I have seen the picture side of the postcard from JD's website and I was curious about the other side. The 1890 post office cancellation from Ashland is indeed pretty cool. I wrote to the owner of the property near Ashland, NH. where the first D&M factory was built. I asked him to take some pictures of the ruins.

Here are some items that I have from D&M. The envelope is postmarked 1884.

To have the photo and 1884 envelope as first evidence of the Draper & Maynard partnership as the J.F. Draper Co. is really super. Hope you don't mind if I replace the photo of the Ashland factory in my article with yours. the advertising on the roof of the factory is just great!

I found this one photo which I didn't have space to use of an 1889 Pittsfield NH. baseball team. I wondered if the catcher on bottom right was using Draper & Maynard gloves.

Good info. Happy to enhance my knowledge everyday I can.
