AnonymousYou don't give Bushing enough credit on this. When he checked the markings on the bat to make sure it was good, he would have seen when this particular type of bat might have been shipped to DiMaggio. If it was anywhere near 1941, you cannot tell me he wouldn't have done additional homework. This guy has been quoted as saying he pays the IRS six figures every year - flipping something to recoup $45,000 is not how he operates. These guys "create" stuff all the time - cases in point, the mid-1960's Mantle glove Billy Crystal bought as a '61, the mid-1970's Seaver glove billed as a '69, and so on.
