Size 8.5.  Classic five-finger seal-brown goatskin leather gloves with camel's hair lining and knitted wristlets.  Standardized in 1938 and used throughout the war.  The leather is in excellent condition with light storage marking only.  Unfortunately there is moth damage on both wristlets as shown, careful darning would improve the appearance.  Taffetta weave Army Air Force labels in each glove.  These unissued gloves are still joined with a couple of stitches.  A good looking pair of these rare gloves.  Stock code GA22913.
