Wicket keeping gauntlet 1890’s. An early example of a single white kid leather wicket-keeping glove used in the period, made by Geo. G. Bussey & Co of Peckham. The right hand glove offered more protection to the wrists and improved ventilation. Some staining and wear otherwise in good condition. Rarely seen. Sold with the vendors notes on the gloves showing an advertisement for the gloves in the Busseys 1898 catalogue
