Great work!! I really like that theme. Now, if you're an addict like me, you will now start looking for the bats of the shortstops, first basemen, etc.

Mark,

You don't know the half of it. I also collect the game used bats of all of Ryan's significant milestone catchers and key milestone strikeout victims. These themes are almost completed as well, including signatures and inscriptions.

That is fantastic! People don't realize how tough it can be to find bats of older "no-name" players. Vintage game used bats, in general, can be rare, but if a fan was going to keep a broken bat as a souvenir, wouldn't it be a Willie Mays, a Hank Aaron, a Reggie Jackson, etc? I can't imagine too many people saved bats of "common" players. A lot of these type of players can be VERY tough. I'm glad to see you could complete your set.

Congrats!

Chris
