Wish we could help, Matt, but we have zero expertise on vintage bats. We were confident one of the bat collectors on board
would have recognized the manufacturer by now. Must be pretty obscure.
The logo certainly seems to be a maker's mark, not a team affiliation, but we agree with Bill that "Spartan" might be a candidate
as a trade name -- we did cursory (only cursory, mind you) on-line searches for "Spartan," "Gladiator," "Viking," "Trojan,"
"Warrior," and "Hercules" in conjunction with "baseball" and "bat," but came up empty on all counts. Deeper searches for those
or related terms might produce some results...
