Got this in last week, I forgot to post it. I was looking to possibly get it restored. Has anybody ever had a picture like this restored? Any recommendations on companies that restore? I appreciate any help.

Hi Ron,
There are some very subtle flaws in the oval line itself of 1950s bats at 10 and 2 o'clock that can help determine specific years of 1950s bats, along with a couple of other things in the center oval. They are outlined in Vince Malta's LS reference book -- I just can't make them out in your photos. Also, I think Vince and Mike Specht both explain that the more square the G in the word in Genuine on the barrel, the earlier in the 50s the bat was made. Your G is fairly round, more consistent with a later 50s bat. These are such small nuances though, that it makes it hard to tell without examining the bat in person, and even then, it's still tough. Greg

Like Greg said- that genuine appears to be late 50's. Nice bat tho

Love that Robinson photo with the kids - thought of going after it - glad it went to a good home.

Absolutely love the Jennings pin but those Blass pins are awesome...I suppose you could say I'm more than a bit biased.

Thanks guys -- what I love about pinbacks are that they look great and don't take up much room! I've got a few more on my list I'm trying to hunt down right now.
Mike -- I have an extra of the Blass portrait pin -- shoot me a PM with your address and I will send it to you. Greg
