250 H&B Ruth signature model bat: Pictures Added

[yanks12025]

Sounds like a pro-model 250 bat but not one for Ruth. Matt (mghpro) will chime in with more info. But yeah 31 inches is way too short for Ruth. But you got it at a steal for $3.

Hi Alan
You didn't overpay at $3, but it is way too short to be a Ruth gamer. Still sounds like a neat bat and will post any other info when you post pictures.

Thanks guys! Sorry it took me so long to reply, but below are some pictures of the bat. I am still trying to figure out how to use my digital camera, but hopefully the pertinent details can be seen. The more I look at it, I do not see lathe marks, only no inch marking on the knob. I do not belive that in itself should make it a possible game model (used by another player) as if this bat is from the 20s I did not think all store models from that period had inch marks.

Now that I have included pictures can anyone help to further clarify the approximate date range (e.g. 20s or 30s)? Any other information regarding it or 250 model bats in general would be greatly appreciated.
