Howard did use a block letter LVS bat. I don't think he had a signature model until '71 or '72. Does it have R43 imprinted on the knob? If so, it was likely at least made for game use, although he may have used LVS bats made to other specifications as well. Is anything, such as a uniform number, written by hand on the knob? He wore numbers 9 and 33 while playing for the Senators.
