I have something here not so old, but pretty infamous. Anyone take a guess what it's from?

Wait, is that the actual glove itself that Maidana had? Or is it just an Everlast MX glove with the same artwork / colors?I have something here not so old, but pretty infamous. Anyone take a guess what it's from?
Nice! If you don’t mind me asking, how much would those gloves be worth? Do you have a way to prove Dempsey wore them if you were ever looking to sell?Was able to snap a few today. I have A LOT. Much in safe storage. Will likely keep posting as I come across some gems. I don't want to just flood the thread all at once.
First up is a Jack Dempsey glove, circa 1920. Worn by Dempsey himself.
Jack Dempsey was the heavyweight champion from 1919 – 1926 and became one of the top celebrities of the 1920s. Known for his aggressive fighting style, Dempsey endeared himself to the sporting public and was as popular as other famous athletes of that day, including Babe Ruth. Dempsey was a money-maker for the industry as well as he was apart of the first ever million-dollar gate and attendance for his fights included an estimated 85,000 strong for his bout with Luis Angel Firpo at the Polo Grounds in New York.
Any idea how old these are?

It's one of them. We normally make 3 pairs. He obviously didn't fight in them so we got most of them back.Wait, is that the actual glove itself that Maidana had? Or is it just an Everlast MX glove with the same artwork / colors?
