Shoeless Joe Jackson bat on Ebay

Something seems odd about this. One the seller has never sold anything before. And now it appears they purchased something from Shoeless Joe and Elvis, and his focus on South Carolina's illeteracy is an odd sales angle.

What on earth were they thinking as they keyed in the shipping cost?

Maybe it's just me, but I really don't think that Joe was soooo poor that he had to sell one of his bats at a ball game. He played and managed several semi-pro teams for many years as well as owning several businesses until his death (dry cleaning, restaurant, and liquor store). Does the guy that's selling the bat have a last name of Halper?

Just a simple question - Would bats for a local textile company in the 30's have the player's names on them?
