Is this the same bat?
Seller bought this in July:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=180683342367 Selling this now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT I'm not saying the seller added the J Jackson, but did they? They also bought a Honus Wagner bat in July and are selling a Honus Wagner bat in August, seems like an odd coincidence. |

I'd say it's the same bat. I spoke with the seller and I asked him if he thought the J Jackson was original or added later, and he said he thought it was later. Good detective work

Also, from his selling history he's sold like 12 vintage Ruth bats, is it possible for one person to have so many? My spidey senses are tingling. |

The bat would have had a decal that is worn off. I don't think the tape was switched, it's just the difference in photo quality. Both look evenly spaced.
Yes, a few people are crazy enough to own 12 Ruth bats. Matt

Looks like black tape in the 1st one and white in his. I'm not saying all his bats are bad, I'm sure most are fine, but something may be up. I contacted the original seller to take a look and let me know if that is his bat 123 is re-sellling and if there was a J Jackson on it. If so and if not, we have a crook.
Any chance he could be buying old bats with say no 40BR and no players name on it and somehow adding it? I know its a stretch but Quincy was my favorite show growing up, if only Sam Fujiyama was a Net54 member. Last edited by Shoeless Moe; 08-14-2011 at 09:18 PM. |

If you look at his past auctions, he sold a 1960's Cobb college bat that looks like the college name was removed and reg us pat was added. He also sold a spalding indoor bat with ty cobb stamped on it which seems very unusual. He's also sold the frisch bat a couple times so I'd say somethings up with seller.
I did buy a Ruth bat from him not too long ago, It took awhile to get it, but it did show up as described.

Is anyone familiar with another bat that has 40JJ (or 40 with any other initials) within the label that does not also have either a signiture or a decal on the barrel? If the block letters were added later, what was on the barrel to begin with? If there was no signiture, was there a decal that become entirely worn off? If so, that might be pretty valuable in its own right.
