Hey guys. Just made a rando purchase on the bay haha. $18 bucks delivered. Thought it looked cool so why not? Does anyone know anything about this trophy and it's value? It was advertised as a 1956 but have no idea how they came up with that year. Anyways here are some pics. Thanks guys!

Im guessing they got 1956 from the front of the trophy where its probably engraved

LOL I looked. It says little league baseball and nothing else.

Actually, it says other stuff, including what looks like, 1956. I think this is probably a graduation trophy from Little League, or some sort of league championship trophy. 1956 is fairly early for Little League, i believe, but there must be tons of similar trophies. I have no idea of value.

This is higher quality than most Little League Trophies of the day. Nice high quality wood and a sturdier figural portion than most. Too bad the bat broke off, but I do like the great mid-century style it has.
Nice pickup for the $$ |

Thanks Mark! What kind of value would you put on it if you don't mind my asking. I am not familiar with trophies.

A trophy collector is not going to want a trophy that is broken unless it is rare or highly collectible. This trophy is neither. It is probably worth what you paid or a little less.

Ok well Mark and Ronnie are on completely different ends of the spectrum. Anyone for the tie breaker?

I like it. The King of the Amateur Repair (me) would be figuring what to do with that bat...

It's a shame the bat is broken! That does hurt it quite a bit. It's not a home run, but I think you did fine for $18. Do you have it in hand? How heavy is it?

I'll have it in hand in a few days and let you know. I wanna try to figure out the bat situation and maybe start a little collections. If anyone likes it I'm open for a trade for a Jackie stub or program lol |

Just buy a different trophy topper for it, they are super cheap and it's not like it would reduce the value.

Its not worth a ton. I just meant you got a nice deal at $18.
Probably worth about double that (with the broken bat). Sorry if my wording made it sound more valuable ![]() |

Haha no it didn't I just wanted to know what I had. This way if I traded I could be fair and vice versa. |
