Default Hack Wilson - Gamer or not?

Posted By: Rhys

Does not look like a gamer from the markings. However, if there are any vault marks on the opposite side of the barrell than it could be. Player models were usually 125 or even 250, but there have been exceptions with vault marks. If it came from the H&B vault I would assume some marks would be somewhere on the bat. I do not really collect bats, but I have a very rare circa 1918 Negro League star game used bat with vault marks, and I have owned probably 20 pre-war game bats in the past.
