Default a historically significant find

Posted By: Rob

Adam, Very cool piece. The condition is amazing. I am curious if you know much about the equipment from the New England area in the mid- to late-1800s. I bought a bat from that area that appears to be made pre-1890. The bat had a repair job on a crack which included the use of six square nails. The bat is 32 inches long, has a 2.25" barrel and 1.5" handle. It appears to have been taped and has a "1" engraved on the knob. Curious if you or anyone you might know would be able to look at some pictures and give me an opinion on it.
