    WW1 british RFC gauntlets - opinions wanted

    Dear Gents,

    I have stumbled upon these gloves by pure chance. Since they are not my field of interest at all, I intend to sell/trade them on the E-stand. Please, I need your expert opinion upon two facts:

    1. Are they original WW1 british RFC gauntlets ?
    2. If answer to q1 is YES, please provide a rough fair value, for E-stand.

    Many thanks in advance,

    Cheers,

    Al

                      Look a little too modern or they are in 100%+ good shape for nearly 100 year old gloves.

                      Too bad there is no marking or stamp on them

                      They do look about right from the ones I have seen in pics etc maybe some of the keen RFC collector ca give you a better answer

                        Thank you for your reply. Well, they do are used - but the images are not showing that. They are crackled, the leather is unzipped from the interior on one glove, and many minor signs of usage are present.

                        As for the provenance of the gloves, they came from an old woman, who kept them in some storage box since ww2. Therefore, this could be a possible explanation to their good shape.

                        Cheers,

                        Al
