Brendan,
I've been meaning to ask you: what are some of your newest additions?

PSA 9 GU 1960 Adirondack MICKEY MANTLE bat with vintage 1960 signature which puts it in Mickey’s hand. I like the cleat marks, bat rack (yankee stadium green) marks and light coat of pine but especially love the deep stitch marks which only the Mick could “seemingly” produce.

Beautiful Mantle Ben! I only have three game used bats. The first is José Pagan's 1971 World Series bat. He drove in Stargell with a double in game 7. That run proved to be the winning run. I have always wondered if this was that bat. I will never know and can't prove it anyway. Nonetheless, its fun to think about. The second is a Kirby Puckett gamer. I love the "34 Knock 34" inscription on the knob. I got this one signed in person with the help of Dave Henderson. The last is Reggie gamer. I got it signed at the National this year.

Good old #11, Jose Pagan!! His bats don't surface everyday.

Ben, that is one gorgeous Mantle example. It has everything going for it...

Vintage Mick signature
Great usage, but not abused
Beautiful Adirondack stampings

Those late 50s/early 60s Adirondacks with the white stampings are the most aesthetically beautiful bats ever made, IMHO. And yours is a Holy Grail.

Brendan: it would be great to see some close ups of some of those t206 bats.

Here is a partial set of the NL champion Giants' lineup from 1917: Holke, Zimmerman, Fletcher, Burns, Kauff, and Robertson (missing a Herzog and a Rariden).

[Bpm0014]

Now that I have figured out how to post larger pictures, I will! As soon as I get home...

[JoeDfan]
