“Mystique” is a word often linked with Sandy Koufax. He was dubbed “The Left Arm of God” for his pitching feats — especially over the five years from 1962 to 1966. A litany of statistics attests to his brilliance during this period, but perhaps the most salient points are these: Koufax became the first man to win three Cy Young Awards
This glove was a rare Denkert Sanford Koufax Model glove. Most likely made in the mid to late 1950's Later Koufax signature gloves made in the 1960's were of the Hollander brand, and any Koufax glove is very desirable thiese days. This glove was heavily oiled in it's day and thus the very dark leather patina. You can make the signature more proncounced by gently bend the leather. This wallet measures 4.25" by 4 inches and has side load card pockets, a cash slot, and a thin profile for baseball glove leather.
I am aware of the very high price of this wallet, but it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a Sanford Koufax wallet. This wallet is stitched perfectly by hand and is a real work of art. The only reason I was able to make this wallet was that the glove was in very very poor, condition as needed a rescue from a non-baseball person might thow in the trash.
Hand cut by me and perfectly hand stitched, this glove wallet is truly a collectors art piece that you can use and carry everywhere everyday. Imagine showing it to your baseball friends. I'm quite certain I will never have the opportunity to make another one. I am equally certain that this wallet has not and will not be replicated. I almost cry when I think of letting this wallet go, but I am a crippled up old man and someone needs to share the love better than I could. Enjoy!!!
