Never heard of that maker before, but, I can tell by looking at it that it's a low quality glove. If it fits your collecting interest, go for it. However, the current bid price of $130+ has, in my opinion, already exceeded it's actual value. The late thirties, early forties, gloves will usually run you around $100 for something in clean, low-use condition. A rare or desirable maker/endorsement can obviously bring more. That glove has cloth piping, vinyl webbing, and no seam welting, all signs of a lesser quality offering. Can't tell from the pics if the lining is missing or if it is canvas. Either way, big negative. The Centennial stamping is the most interesting part of the glove. I collect the leather, not the ink, so your collecting interest may raise the value for you. At this point, the bidding hasn't reached a crazy level, just surprising to me considering it's construction. Hope that helps.
