mitts from the 1880's
I don't know a whole lot about the gloves used in the 1880's. i was at a local card shop today and they had an old mitt the guy claimed was from 1885. It looked like an oven mitt...a thumb and a pad...no fingers. It was labeled but i cant remember the manufacturer. it had a riveted button. Anyone know if this sounds like a correct vintage and what a value would be? anyone have pics of similar mitts?
