Default BAT COLLECTORS COLLECT BATS BECAUSE......

Posted By: CarltonHendricks

I'm generally interested in baseball bats from 1880's and earlier...ring bats
and such. However I know the category of bat collecting and the bat world is
about 5 miles wide. I'd like to clarify/identify the main areas and would
appreciate hearing from those of you fluent in the subject. Would the
following be accurate?:

Generally, baseball bats are collected based on the following three
categories:
-player endorsement
-game used status
-vintage/era/style

Please feel free to correct, elaborate at length, and or add any pertinent
information that would be helpful in understanding this area of collecting.
Thanks -Carlton
