Joe Jackson Bat

[joed25]

Hi, I'm looking at a Joe Jackson decal that has a lot of side writing. The date received by the factory is 6-13-1921 or 6-18-1921. The labeling period is 1910-1915. Length is 34.75 and weight is 38.9 oz. Is there any way to find out who used this bat? It says it on the bat but I can't make it out. Thank you so much. I am willing to pay for help on this.

black light?

Thanks. Is there anyone who has access to the factory records?

Factory records won't help unless you know the players name who returned. Infrared light is the best way to bring out the non legible sidewriting.

As said, find someone with an infrared camera. Infrared is used to read disappearing writing. See the following article (http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com/science-forgery-detection-black-light-x-rays/).

I have one, but chances are I don't live near you.
