SPALDING Samuel E. Crawford autograph model bat

[Archive]

Posted By: Frank

I have a SPALDING "Samuel E. Crawford" autograph model bat, probably from around 1912. It's in pretty good condition (no tape, nails, chips or major blemishes). Any idea what it might be worth? Please contact me if you would like to see photos.

I'd also appreciate if anybody can refer me to a reputable collector/dealer in the Chicago area who might appraise it. If you live in the Chicago area and would like to see the bat, please get in touch and we can make arrangements.

Thanks,
Frank Williams

Frank-
I had a similar bat (in worse shape) about two months ago. I sold it for about 100.00 at a major show in Wimington MA. If you google Sam Crawford Spalding bat, you should be able to find a link to an auction with an example in excellent condition that went for around 300 a few months ago at Heritage. I hope this information helps!
