Baseball and Football Memorabilia - No Idea Of Worth...

[jingram058]

...If anything. These items arrived at the thrift store where I volunteer shortly before I left on vacation a few weeks ago. Iam not knowledgeable on what any of it is worth. I will sell it, and give all proceeds to the thrift store, which then goes to charities and scholarships. Is any of this worth anything, or is it just cheap junk?

2. Adirondack Little League Willie Mays bat

3. Vintage bat with cloth taped handle

With better photos, I may be interested in that first bat.

The picture is a little blurry however the Ripken signature appears to be a forgery

Well, we're going to find out, because all the items are listed now on eBay (thanks swarmee!). It will have to pass authentication in order to sell. The inscribed 1923 bat already sold. All the proceeds (minus what it costs me to mail these things out) go to the thrift store.
