Default Glove and catcher's mask

My father was recently at an antiques store in Kansas. He asked the shop owner if he had any baseball items. Another customer overheard and invited my dad to his farm, where he had some sports items. My father ended up purchasing these two items for, according to him, "very little money."

The glove is a 'two-finger' Wilson, ie, two fingers go in each of outer two finger holes. Model is a 'Professional 636', 'The Ball Hawk', with a patent date of 1947 written on the thumb. No name on it. It's very soft with no defects.






The mask is also a Wilson, no other info.




Any info/thoughts/valuations would be appreciated. I know little about equipment but think these are cool items in any case.
