Hello,
New guy here. I was cleaning out my Great Uncle's house, and i found what appears to be an old bat of some type, or at least it looks like a bat to me.... It's got an oval barrel, but a knobby end. It's 28" long, I have yet to get it on my postage scale for a weight. No markings, just a lotta marks so it looks old to me. Could this be a town ball bat, or is it just some kind of old handle?? I Googled "old baseball bat" which led me to this site. Hoping to get some answers. Thanks in advance! ~Graham ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

It’s gotta be a handle. The “business end” looks totally like an axe or pick handle.

I’m not so sure...
Looks just like other Massachusetts style Town Bats I’ve seen, with that type of knob and the 2 flattened sides of the Barrel. I would run it be Mears, if you really want to know, and/or are interested in selling it. Best of luck! |

It's similar to the mass style bat but most likely a railroad brake handle . Sometimes initials of the railroad are faintly stamped into the wood. These do however,certainly get sold as mass bats

At 28 inches long, is it too short for a Mass bat?
