Thanks for your input. I do not know how long the bats are. I will relay the estimates to Otey and see if he is interested in selling them. If so I will put them on ebay to get Otey a fair price.

Otey is doing fine. I spoke with him this morning. He is in his early 90's. Recently his wife and he celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary. Otey is listed as the 24th oldest living former professional baseball player.

If anyone is interested I believe he will be having me sell a couple of team signed baseball, two of which are from the 1953 Giants and the 1946 Louisville Colonels Little World Series champs team (haven't seen the balls yet). Hopefully the two bats above will be sold along with a Satchell Paige autograph. Every penny of the proceeds goes to Otey. Just doing this as a favor to him.
