I have a few H&B store model bats. Before I mounted them on my wall, I was wondering if they have any pertinent value ( over $50 ? ). Any inputs would be appreciated. I picked them up back in the 1980's.

Thanks Matt. I appreciate the information. I have had these bats since 1985 ish I pick them from a collector that had tons of them in his house. He used a lot of them to line the stairwell. There were notches in the rail where the bats would slide in. Anyhow, I paid around $10 - $15 bucks each (except the Ruth). The Ruth bat was given to me by a friend. I had a Gehrig bat also, but traded it to Dave Midema (SCD columnist) back in 1988, Atlantic City National. I think I got $50 in trade.

By the way, I also have a Willie McCovey bat. The bottom of the handle says MAC44 ? It's been signed by Brooks Robinson. I am not sure why I got him to sign it, but someone talked me into it.
