Two Buckles Mitt

[4scuda]

Can anyone tell me anything about this mitt? I have not seen one with the buckle across the top before. The manufacturers patch is missing, I received it with a early Eddie Collins black glove and catchers mask from a relatives estate. I have been going through boxes that I have had packed away and I appreciate the help with IDing some of my items. Before joining this forum I haven't really had any exposure to knowledgeable collectors. I stick to auctions, flea markets, and antique stores for my purchases, so even though I have been collecting for 25 years I still have a lot to learn.

I'd like to see pictures of the catcher's mask also, if you don't mind.

The Eddie Collins glove is a bit stiff.

Super Eddie Collins mitt!

This is the mask I got with the buckle mitt and eddie collins glove. It is not in good shape but it is still a pretty good relic.

Thanks for the pics Mark. Looks like a mid 1880's-1900 goggle eyed or spiderman style mask. Missing almost all of the padding, which might have been stuffed with horse hair. Just my guess but you might get $50 for it.
I'm no expert just giving you what i have learned.
