Our main focus are baseball items but we do have other sports as well. Our intent is to help you get a quality piece of vintage sports equipment - if you are not satisfied I will refund your money. We actively buy small and large collections. If you have items available, we are always looking for quality artifacts to purchase. Items we are interested in include pre 1960 baseball gloves, bats, balls, equipment, vintage footballs and basketballs, letter sweaters, jerseys, trophies, photos and more.

Collecting is part of my DNA! My grandparents were antique collectors and dealt in furniture. Both of my parents are collectors and I got the best of both gene sets. Like most sports collectors, my beginnings lie in baseball cards. My dad started collecting vintage baseball gloves in 1990 when I was twelve years old, and from then on in I was hooked!

Laced finger fielder gloves produced after 1950. Look here for high quality personal models or signature models of your favorite players from the 1950's and 1960's.
