Recreational Artifacts are objects that are used as toys or for carrying on activities such as games and sports. An example of sports equipment within the Mayborn Museum collection is a pair of leather boxing gloves that belonged to T.P. Robinson, Baylor University Class of 1911, who was also a well-known football player. An interesting toy in the collection is a wooden top with a metal tip which, according to Texas Governor and Baylor University President Pat Neff, “was a top owned by me when I was a boy going to school in Eagle Springs, and I won several nice marbles by being able to spin it longer than some of my bare foot associates."
