Cool unusual item Scott.

Here is mine and is unusual for many reasons. First while I was bidding on the bat in a Mears auction it was listed as "Game Used". As soon as the auction was over it magically became a "Professional Model". Unusual isn't it.

Then when I went to add the Billy Ripken to the barrel I messed up. I only put Bill Ripken so the name is not centered by 1 letter. I also did not have a wood burning tool and instead used a soldering pen to burn the letters in. Wow was that a pain in the butt.

Then lastly I blew up the knob on the famous 89 Fleer card. Turned it into a transfer sheet and added the famous F Face to the bat knob.

Overall I am very happy with my "Custom" piece. It is a nice addition to my large Bill Ripken collection focused on his 89 Fleer card and many of its variations.

Ben, that's a great piece - it would display great with a poster-size copy of the Fleer card.

Thanks Scott, not sure why the bottom looks so white, it's not in hand.
