Unfortunately, the period I collect precludes actual MLB game-used, due to affordability.

Would love to see some pre-WWI MLB game-used.

My dog survived the lost toenail this week and goes in for cancer surgery next week. Another rough summer for her, but she's hanging in.

This is not a beautiful bat, but it might be from the pre-war era that you desire: it has side-writing (very obscure) that indicates that the bat was used by Larry Doyle AND Davy Robertson. Since they played on the same team only before the Great War, it would seem that they used the bat during that era.
