Where did you pick it up? How was it described? What makes you think it is game used? Give us the full story and more to go on, so we can try to help you.

I can't see the markings well from these photos, but you may have an inexpensive store model Hiawatha brand mitt. Here is a link with a brief history of the Gambles Hiawatha brand.

You need to be very careful and educate yourself prior to making such purchases. I have to believe a game used Gil Hodges glove would certainly attract more than one bidder and should sell for much more than $250. If you were the seller of this glove wouldn't you do research prior to putting it on eBay? I did a Google search and found another example in minutes. Heritage sold the one below sold for $3100 in April 2010.

I did look around before I purchased it and saw those exact models, however those are late 50's. the seller explained this was a 55 mitt, and I tried to photo match and couldn't really find any 55 photos of the glove. He was asking 750 at first and I messaged him kindly asking if he'd take 250, so in fairness he was asking a bit more. He described it as authentic and game used though which is why I figured I could take a shot. I got lucky with a dodger garment bag earlier this month and this seemed to be a great addition to put in the case. So is this 100% not legit?? |
