Thanks Nate. Value v. cost doesn't factor into local history preservation very often, but you're probably right. Unsure if I'll find another.

Well maybe it would to you then. To give you an idea, getting it restored would probably be around $500 depending on exact issues. Who knows, could be less. If you want the info, let me know. I could even show you a before and after.

I have absolutely zero artisitic talent, but here is something that I restored totally on my own. Original Shibe Park seats. I had to go from 3 seats to 2 because the legs on 1 of them were too badlly mangled. They look much better in person.

To restore was the answer to my question. With the help of a couple board members pointing me in the right direction (Matt & Nate) I got my Wenatchee Valley College Yaz Model 125 restored by Steve Abramson at BaseballBatRepair in Bangor, PA. This bat was so lifeless and pale it would make a goth fan envious. Now, it has new life breathed into the lumber. Simply a beautiful job and far less than estimates. Final cost $160, and worth every penny!

Before....


After....
