glove stretcher

Description
Wooden glove stretcher with a metal spring. Consists of two long wooden handles in a V shape with a wooden ball and metal spring between. Between the two shafts at the handle is a metal spring, which is riveted to one shaft, and moved up and down in a groove in the other shaft. This keeps the shafts together at the narrow end, until they are required to be opened.
