I believe this bat dates to 1916-1929, correct? Interested in understanding what the "hook" was...why did LVS make a "night ball" bat? It is a 34 inch bruiser of a bat!
Any advice on how to effectively and safely clean the darkened barrel would be appreciated. I wiped some dish soap over the lettering so one can read the stamping clearly in the photo. Thanks! ![]() ![]() ![]()

With the made in the USA its post 1921 . The darkness is probably factory flamed burned , not something you would want to clean

Thanks Matt. Any idea why "Night Ball" was used as a selling feature? Why partial barrel flame burning?

The style of '&' used on this bat was used on pro bats in 1933/34.

Yep, you definitely don't want to clean wood bats with water.

Thanks Tim and Nate. Ever see a night ball bat before? Why would this be a selling feature?
