Default Max Carey Sliding Pads

Not a gamer, but still a great uniform related item in my book. What I love about these is that Carey actually applied for and received a patent for this design. Patent number awarded to Carey is 1,641,318 and dated September 6th, 1927. Plan is to display these, a copy of the patent information at the MEARS Museum. We are still working on our Pirates exhibit so it will probably not be until 2014 that we add this team.
