American Pickers

Joe, I was watching this last night as well and wished they went through some of the bats. I would love to see what kind of bats are in there. That guy had a ton of stuff, some pretty nice advertising signs too.

This reminded me a few years back I was at a flea market and this older lady had a bunch of old bats in the trunk of her car. I couldn't of moved quickly enough to get over there. Unfortunately they were all softball bats and beat up little league bats

looking at the knob shapes, colors etc, a lot of the bats here are Little League and or softball bats. Some of the older looking ones are the same. They just look like they spent time out in the weather

No doubt Jim, looks like mostly junk as the guy did say he gathered much stuff from garage sales, but would be nice if they staged a scence where a gem is pulled from the pile. Who knows, could be one in there??

Michael, that's encouraging to hear, because I am addicted to the show . Which episode was your dad's? I'll look it up and watch.

My main issue is the prices quoted are not accurate for most regions and sellers, though they may be for them. Also they list what they are going to sell the items for but never what they actually sell for.
