Default Mickey Mantle Bat
Hello guys, I have a Mickey Mantle bat, measures about 34 inches. I don't know how much it weighs. It's stamped K55 on the knob. The handle is cracked underneath the black tape. Is this a model bat? Thank you guys for all of the help.

1965-68 labeling. What does it weigh?

I would lean heavily toward index/pro stock bat, but I see Mantle did order that model and length in 1968.

I'm not sure what it weighs. I'll take it to the post office and have them weigh it.

Even if it does match factory records, Taube will most likely say it's a index bat because it looks like it doesn't show Mantle traits and model K55 was his pro-stock model.

It's def worth more than $10. I had a 50's Mantle index bat and got around $1,500 for it.

This one is a 60's model as Tim said, but if it is in fact an index, it still has value.

Nate,
I think he was joking.
