    Does anyone know what type of gloves these are? Made of leather and made by Spalding in Canada. As you can see from the picture, the palm of both gloves has a circurlar pattern. FYI...When I contacted Spalding Canada they did not respond. I took them to a local sporting goods store and got two different answers...one was baseball batters gloves, and the Soccer goalie gloves. So maybe someone here knows for sure what sport uses these....Thanks

      Well....I am originally from Buffalo NY, but I moved to Toronto when I was only 10 years old...so I really doubt they belonged to OJ or anyone else in Buffalo.

      Handball gloves. Maybe 1920s. Ask Spalding !

      Everybody plays with Spalding's balls, so take your pick. Why do I sense a delete coming on? Golf?

      Thank you very much Slackjack....the link you sent to me shows very similar gloves made by Ken-Wal. They are HANDBALL GLOVES. The site reports that they were Patented in 1926. The photo they are showing is telling me the Ken-Wal gloves in their photo are near mint. I don't know what year the Spalding Handball Gloves that I have were made....but I think they are in better condition then the Ken-Wal Gloves they are showing.
