|  Baseball Glove questions - Crescent Mitt 
			
			Okay, I just got this glove today...anyone want to venture a guess to the date of manufacture?  Also is this a kid's glove?  It's small - 8 1/2" from the tip of the middle finger to the bottom.  There are no manufacturer marks on it..  Any info appreciated.

			Nice Mitt! My guess its circa 1900-1910. 8 1/2 is on the small size, but may not be a kids mitt. Im sure one of the glove guys will jump in.  Matt

			Thanks Matt.  My hand fits into the glove and I know the gloves from that era were smaller, but I've never seen one of this style in hand before today.

			What you have is a crescent padded fielders glove. It dates anywhere from late 1890's to around 1910. It is about average size adult glove. Here's a site that shows various examples of that style glove. http://www.baseballglovecollector.co...s-mitts&page=2 |
