I had the privilege to take on a TRUE Vintage project from a client. A 1962 MacGregor GC12 “Willie Mays Personal Model” with the “Double-T Web” - a web design which can stay in the past as far as I’m concerned (I’ll save you the trouble. There is no known diagram ever published by MacGregor or Rawlings on the pattern of the Double-T web). It took me three weeks to figure out, but I might have the one and only🤣🤣🤣. When I received this glove, it was as hard as wood, and it could not be opened. This was my first true vintage restoration and if I did nothing else right at least you can put your hand in it and open it now. The client tells me it will be displayed in a Danbury Mint collection.
I’ll share my before and after pictures it should be obvious which is which 😁
