Yogi Berra Powerized LVS R43 game model bat
 

Hi folks. Found a Yogi Berra LVS game model R43 bat which has Texas Tech as the team. Are these Berra model bats that were sold to colleges or something else? Any input would be appreciated.

Index bat. Sold to various schools. You see many big names with an assortment of Colleges etc.

Thanks. Excuse my ignorance but what is an Index bat and how rare/valuable is it?

Here’s some info.

I would say, not rare, but a good name which would help value. Might be $100 or so perhaps, but I could be light?

I don't think it would even bring $100 since it is also post playing career.

There's also a fairly significant difference in value between a college branded bat and a regular index (pro stock) bat that has all the same labeling as a typical gamer but doesn't match factory records as ordered by the player.

Thanks for the info. Didn’t pay much for it, so it’s a cool piece regardless.
