I'm not a bat expert, but all my Pre-War minor league bats had great provenance in that they came from the H & B vaults, meaning the players sent their used up bats to H & B so H & B could make new ones. Many had the date and player's name written on the sides by H & B (aka 'sidewritten'). With the exception of maybe one or two, all were career minor leaguers-- usually playing in numerous leagues. As probably expected, the players who played in the Pacific Coast Leaguer were the most valuable.
