Here is a vintage 1949-1953 Wilson top-of-the-line Top Notch A2624 Trapper Model baseball The glove has soft leather piping which is decent for the most part. The professional mitt is adult size and measures 11" long through the pocket. Quality leather. This model 1st base mitt was only made from 1949 to 1953 and was the highest quality mitt made (selling for .50 - .50 over the years). The mitt has Top Notch stamped on the front of the fingers area. It says Trapper Model in the middle of the palm, but it's hard to make out. At the bottom is Wilson, Made in USA and A2624. On the back is the wording "Place all fingers in this section with small & third fingers thru adjustable loop. Towards the bottom is stamped: Licensed Under Pat. No. 2,281,315 and Made in U.S.A.A previous owners name is written into the back of the thumb. Mitt is a dark brown color from use and time. Lacing is intact and appears to be original. Nice black and red Wilson patch on back of thumb. Leather is thick, soft and supple. Interior leather is soft and smooth. The mitt has no finger slots in it, just a pinky finger loop which is functional and actually could fit two fingers in it.. Also a working thumb loop. Leather piping is roughed up at the bottom of the backstrap but not torn. Piping is soft but is scuffed a bit here and there from use. Not much stamping on the mitt and it's a little tough to read in places. The wool padding underneath the backstrap is missing most of the wool on 2/3rds of the backstrap (pretty much the first 2-3 fingers area.
I have other gloves and mitts on eBay ending now (and other items with Buy it Now's) and I like to combine shipping whenever possible. If you win more than one glove you'll have to pay the grand total for shipping. But I'll refund you the difference back on the price of combined shipping. Or I'll send out an invoice if possible.
