bat date
The picture of the center label is at a slight angle, so it isn't easy to say, but I think that the label is from 1925-1930. (the M in "Made in America" moved under the R in "Hillerich"). According to the Malta book, if I read it correctly, there isn't a record of any order for 35" bats during that period. There were, however, some orders in 1929 that don't specify the bat length.
