Don Drysdale 1965 H&B - great year at the plate and on the mound for Drysdale, as he was the only .300 hitter for the WS Champs in '65, frequently used as a pinch hitter that year. It has great use and direct provenance too.

The game used forum has been quiet for way too long, so here's a photo of some more HOFer game used bats, including another Musial autograph model. The third from the bottom that is kind of hard to see is Zach Wheat.

Some amazing collections and examples! I have not jumped into the vintage game used area of the hobby yet, but to say I'm facinated by it is an understatement, especially bats.

I'm researching and educating myself about vintage game use bats though and I hope to begin my journey into the subject in the very near future.

Great collections!

Mark,

Collecting vintage game bats puts you in touch with the actual game in a way that few other things can. It's terrific that you are not just jumping in without thinking -- education and research are the way to go. Enjoy and always feel free to ask any of us for help.

I hope part of that education involves buying Vince Malta's book. I've been buying bats for almost 20 years and still refer to it regularly.

Thanks for the tip Ken!

I've actually spent this afternoon searching for related books for my library. I've also looked into the Mastronet Reference and Price Guide: For Collecting Game Used Baseball Bats as well as it seems to be a good reference as well.

It is, I used it well when it came out, but honestly, the Malta book beats it hands-down. Malta's book has very detailed pictures and descriptions of virtually every variation in LV labeling. Every bat I get I check out the date. Combined with the actual LV ordering records for HOFers, it's worth it's weight in gold. (Is it even available anymore??)
