I am not familiar with glove dating much at all. To me it looks like whatever the glove, it's far too big for her. And looking at where her wrist/arm goes into the glove is extremely loose in appearance.
It's very hard to make out the style to me. But based on the loose fitting appearance it seems to me its a "Work Glove" style glove.

I think if the date is wrong the uniform would be a much better indication. The photo shows the full thing down to her shoes very well. And I will say the shoes new victorian design matches the 1890s very well.

I also think shes wearing a head piece of some sort. With stockings pulled very high up. Similar to what was seen in female allen and ginter cards. Though a decade later would explain the addition of the glove.

Great thread Gary, thanks for starting. Here is an 1895 "Point of Purchase" piece I recently acquired in a trade with a fellow Board member. It doesn't state a date but the book was published in 1895

Great items, all!
Here are a couple of early baseball items that I have in my collection.

An early colorful piece of advertising for a harvesting machine that features a Victorian era pitcher and an 1866 First Grand Annual Ball invite.
Both are fun to look at, for sure...
