Just got in some nice cabinet photos - Wahoo High School just after Sam Crawford would have been there, and two early Huskers....also picked up an elusive 1958 Lincoln Chiefs program. |

Interesting...can you take a photo of the writing? It's possible that the bat was used by a minor leaguer who liked the size/weight/dimensions of the bat and sent it to H&B to order more. |

Nice photo Paul. Do you have a Kentucky focus or did you just like the photo? |

A bit of both Dan. I liked the photo and my "family" goes back to the 1700's in Kentucky. Just getting going on the whole genealogy thing. |

Brock, that is probably a side written bat where a player sent it in as a model for bats to be made for them. Your bat has GREAT patina and is a fairly rare bat. Congrats on a great pick up. |

Brock. Did you get it off ebay? Post the label and a clear pic of the knob. If it's a model 125 it could be a gamer. |

Brock, it was probably a gamer, just not one used by a major leaguer. All the markings look consistent for a bat that was used and liked by someone enough to order more bats with the same dimensions. The guy probably used it and when it cracked he sent it off to H&B to order more. The local sporting goods store probably offered this service to the local ballplayers. |
