1900-05 Pennant Brand Full Web Fielder’s Glove. This is an exceptionally high quality, buckskin leather glove from a very scarce maker. Gloves from 1900 to 1915 had sewn in webs known as "full webs" These webs were sewn directly to the thumb and forefinger.
This is a Spalding white leather "crescent padded" fielder's glove circa 1900 -1910. The back has a Spalding label, and brass button. Crescent glove get there name from the crescent shaped padding at the bottom of the glove. these gloves can also be dated to the late 1890s

Another example of a "full web" glove circa 1910. This glove was made of a stiff leather as opposed to the buckskin example above. Lacing is used at the bottom instead of being sewn.
This is a Spalding baseball advertising sign c.1915, with a graphic display of a baseball glove with a 1908 Patent date. Advertising like this is a great way of dating Vintage baseball memorabilia.
