April 8, 1974 (715) Hank Aaron Inscribed Pro Model Bat - help with authentication?
I have an Aaron A99 signed and dated by him 4/8/74. My cousin dealt memorabilia in the 70s and met Aaron at a show. The story is that he gave Hank a Rogers Hornsby signed photo (because he couldn't charge the home run king), and Aaron in turn gave him this bat. In the story, Aaron went out to his car and brought it back to trade. Said that he used it in batting practice before the game that day. Very, very light use, but his "open 44" in marker on the knob and rack marks.
Does anyone have any idea how I might go about getting this story backed up? I've asked the Braves HOF, but all they could say was that it was an Aaron pro model. And I sent a handwritten letter to Aaron at his Turner Field address, but got no reply from Aaron yet (which is to be expected). Anyone, in the name of a merciful god, have a direct line to Aaron? Also, has anyone ever seen an Aaron pro model or gamer inscribed with that date?
