Pair of absolutely spectacular Rawlings "Claw Model" base mitts sold under the "Trapper" brand in the 1950s. Both gloves appear mint in their original boxes. Collection includes: 1) Model T107: Joe Cunningham model right-hander's youth model mitt absolutely mint with gorgeous piping and original lacing. Red supple leather and easily legible stampings. Simply fantastic. Box does exhibit some mild creasing some ink marks and light staining and wear and wax paper interior has begun to break down a bit. 2) Model T110: Bob Skinner endorsed left-hander's youth model mitt. Beautiful brown leather shiny new piping and lacing completely unused. Box is in good condition with some stray writing on the label and slight wear and staining likely from the moisture in the leather. Interior wax paper has also begun to break down with age. Two wonderful base mitts with relatively new "claw" technology. For what it's worth the mitts smell like they just came from the factory. Pure baseball.
