Another thing that is kind of funny is the E at the end of his signature is a different style, so you would think the e in his first name would look like that also. I believe no mistake was made.
Weren't a full run of every hall of fame year made of these bats within the past 20 years. So this is NOT from 1937?? If I got one of these, and they were made in say 1996, I would only want the 1996 one. Take Care!

Paul,
I'm holding the bat in my hand, and it looks like an "i". Notice that the "i" in Lajoie also doesn't have a dot above it. Not a big deal. Just thought it was interesting.
