40BR or any other initials designate a store model bat. Now, someone could find a store model bat they liked and send it to H&B for duplication in quality wood model 125 or 250. It's also possible the 40BR missed the knob stamp step, it was worn off, or someone removed it. Unless you have a picture of a pro player using a model 40 or a record from H&B that they did, I would NEVER consider them a potential gamer. They are great pieces of memorabilia, but that is it.
