'To clean or not to clean' depends on value and what you plan to do with them. If they are in halfway decent condition, and worth more than $50, I wouldn't touch them. But if you want to keep them and just like having nice bats lying around your house for display purposes, then clean them.
If you decide to clean/refinish, shoot me an email and I'll give you my thoughts. I restore antique pool cues as a very minor part of my business, and the few bats I've done have turned out well.
