Vintage Spalding Bat question

[Archive]

Posted By: Alan Elefson

Hi-
I recently acquired the bat scanned below and I was wondering if anyone might be able to tell me how old it is, approximately? It is short (about 33 inches) with a thick handle (almost as thick as the barrel) and the words Spalding B3 etched on the label area of the bat. It also has a Spalding trademark on the knob (scanned below). Is there a dating guide to Spalding bats similar to the one I saw for H&B bats?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Alan,
If its a short stocky bat, its probably 1910-20.
