Can anyone offer opinions on where the best venue/AH might be to sell a game used willie mays bat from the late 50’s?

I would agree...any of the “big boys” ought to get your bat plenty of exposure.

Can we see what you have?

I'd be interested in seeing it too. I might be interested in making an offer, if you are open to it.

hi guys...I have the bat in hand. the markings correspond with being made 1951-1957...I'd presume closer to 57' as that corresponds to my friends historical recollection. Bat is cracked...has little use.

Apparently this is a very rare bat...despite not showing a ton of use.

It seems there are no similar bats that have sold that I can find on the internet...and for this reason as well as others I will likely be getting this bat graded and will send to a big auction house. The value range is just too variable from what I can see.

I will post more pics tonight.

Here is link with some pics I posted a while ago.

here are some pics...I've done a lot of research and I cannot find an exact exemplar...I did find a similar mantle bat that sold REA for a lot of moulah...but no exact willie mays with the flame treated notation or the older adirondack label.
