Hey guys. Just made a rando purchase on the bay haha. $18 bucks delivered. Thought it looked cool so why not? Does anyone know anything about this trophy and it's value? It was advertised as a 1956 but have no idea how they came up with that year. Anyways here are some pics. Thanks guys!

LOL I looked. It says little league baseball and nothing else.

Actually, it says other stuff, including what looks like, 1956. I think this is probably a graduation trophy from Little League, or some sort of league championship trophy. 1956 is fairly early for Little League, i believe, but there must be tons of similar trophies. I have no idea of value.

I googled it and couldn't find anything that looked like that. That is why I came to you guys.

This is higher quality than most Little League Trophies of the day. Nice high quality wood and a sturdier figural portion than most. Too bad the bat broke off, but I do like the great mid-century style it has.

Nice pickup for the $$

Thanks Mark! What kind of value would you put on it if you don't mind my asking. I am not familiar with trophies.
