Original Don Post Creature Gloves!

[kreaturekid]

Hi guys! this is my latest score! Nothing is better then buying something that you aren't sure on and just hopping you didn't get ripped off. Well in this case this one was on ebay, had broken fingernails and said it was resin hands that are foam filled not much more info, tried to dig and find out more but not much luck. The resin got me thinking? knowing how latex is could it be just very very old rubber thats solidified over the years?

Well i got these in the mail today and WOW! They are the largest hands iv seen compared to others. The detail is amazing! the wrists cuts are taped together with duct tape for when they were foamed and yes they are solidified latex over the years! There are some marks from it being on a shelf for ever. But still amazing hands.

Now for you Post collectors. What year were these first offered? and is this the actual original paint job?
Enjoy!!
