Its a great early 1930s Figural Trophy, and is very collectible. Baseball collectors will eat this one up. It's about the same size as a Spalding (perhaps just slightly smaller) and just about as nice. Terrific detail and size...

I have seen these go anywhere from $700 - $1,400, so there's quite a bit of range. I spent $1,250 for mine, but it's dead-mint condition. Yours looks very nice.... perhaps "EX - EX/MT" with the expected amount of surface wear and a slight bend to the bat.

As long as there is no restoration or repair (re-attachment of feet, bat, etc.) it could command as much as $1,100.

I would say it's more of an $800 piece in this market, but you never know at auction. I personally would not accept less than $700 for it. These are very tough, and make incredible display pieces. If you go the auction route, Hunt's does a very nice job with these items. SCP would be another good option for consignment.

Hope this helps, and best of luck!
