ARTIFACT: This is a wonderful pair of circa 1930 aviator's gauntlet-style leather gloves in excellent condition! These gloves were originally owned by Greek Air Force pilot Captain A.W. Paleodswopoulis (the last picture above is reportedly one of Captain Paleodswopoulis in full dress uniform). Born in 1902, Paleodswpoulis flew with the Hellenic Air Force before and after it became its own entity, separate from the Greek Army and Navy. He passed away in 1965. The cognac-colored gloves are lined in sheepskin for open cockpit use. If these fit me, I would not sell them! We are selling some other items separately that belonged to the Captain, including the belt he is wearing in the photo above: please see the links at the bottom of this page for more information.

VINTAGE: Circa 1930.

SIZE: Approximately 5-3/4" in width (at cuff) and 14-3/4" in total length (each).

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Leather, sheepskin lining, nickeled brass, Bakelite (cap on snaps).

ATTACHMENT: Snap, buckle.

MARKINGS: C.S. on reverse of snaps.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a foreign militaria collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-DMM-25-13 L/SDEJX8/13

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
