After considerable expense and many experiments we have finally perfected
a Catcher's Glove that meets with general favor from professional catchers.
The old style of open backed gloves introduced by us several years ago is
still adhered to, but the quality of material and workmanship has been
materially improved, until now we are justified in claiming the best line
of catchers' gloves in the market. These gloves do not interfere with
throwing, can be easily put on and taken off, and no player subject to
sore hands should be without a pair. Our new patent seamless palm glove is
admittedly the finest glove ever made, and is used by all professional
catchers. We make them in ten different grades, as follows:
Price of Full Left-Hand Gloves.
No. 3-0. Spalding's Special League Catchers' Gloves. Patented, both
gloves without seams in palm. Full left-hand back stop
glove, made of heaviest Indian-tanned or drab buckskin,
the very best that can be produced. The full left-hand
glove is extra padded and sole leather finger tips to
prevent the low curve balls from breaking or otherwise
injuring the fingers. The right-hand glove is made with
open back and fingerless, thoroughly padded. We especially
recommend this glove for catchers. Each pair packed in
separate box.
$5.00
No. 4-0. Spalding's Special League Catchers' or Fielders' Gloves,
full left-hand soft-tips, lined, drab color buckskin.
$5.00
No. 2-0. Spalding's League Regulation Catchers' Gloves full left-
hand, with tips, good quality buckskin, same style of
gloves as 3-0, not quite so heavy.
$3.50
No. 3.A. Full Left-Hand "Spring Buck" with sole leather tips. $3.00
No. A. Full left-hand buckskin without tips.
$2.50
