Default It's back!
Bat was delivered today before lunch. He signed it with my provided black sharpie and overall, I'm happy with the results. I knew it wouldn't be a perfect '10' signature due to his age, so I set lower expectations and was actually expecting a much shakier signature. The sharpie bled into the grain in a few spots unfortunately, but I'm still glad it's signed.

Looks great. I think that roll of the dice paid off and in the long run, there will be fewer signed gamers in the hobby.

Very cool. I don't think you'll ever regret getting it signed but you probably would have if you didn't get it signed and he passed away.

Thanks Guys. This was the thought I kept going back to. The window was closing.

Good move. And now, it is definitely a "Colavito" bat, regardless of the provenance of the wood.
