Highland mint made plaques or something with little wood slices, and some coin type things. When they started offering the sawdust I thought it was silly, but also a creative way of squeezing every last bit of use out of whatever they were cutting up.
And I hate that they cut that stuff up -Assuming any of it was real. I have a nice piece of ash out in the wodshop, when I make something out of it I'd be happy to send along some sawdust or half inch squares thin enough to put on a card........ I did use wood from the first christmas tree my wfe and I had to make ornaments for family, and they were quite popular. Steve B

Not interested today
There was a time when I would have spent $1 on it. Not anymore. It's not worth remembering that I have it somewhere in my collection. Worthless in my opinion.

I would have paid him $100 to not cut the bat up. Is there any other hobby that destroys its goods like this? Doesn't make any sense at all.

$1, but I would pay $2 if it didn't say between 1916-21.
By 1921 it's just as likely he was playing stickball or something else out in the street. or maybe the 21 doesn't refer to a date... so $2 then Last edited by alanu; 12-13-2011 at 11:09 AM. Reason: added last comment

You have to be real careful when buying dust off the street in little pouches.....You never know if it's the real stuff. Even if it is it could be cut with some fake filler and you might not be getting the 100% real deal. There could be some new Louisville Slugger Dust in that stuff too. You gotta be careful, Stay clean...

One dealer at the 2008 All-Star Fanfest in New York had a ton of 'em...
 (Photo taken July 14, 2008. © Gary Dunaier. Link to upload on Flickr.com: here.) The dealer who was selling these said they came out "a few years ago," and that he hadn't seen them around for sale that much and he was pretty much the only guy who was selling them. They may very well be fakes, but I bought a couple of Ty Cobbs ($15 apiece) because these were produced by the Highland Mint, and I trust them when it comes to authenticity.

Might buy it if it were carbon dated and they found shoeless Joe's DNA on it along with certification from JSA

Quote:
Fake pieces of cloth on cards, autographs cut up to post on cards resulting in missing letters, bats cut up to put on cards. This hobby is so self destructive and only for one reason, the extraordinary measures that companies will take in pursuit of the $$$$. The business of America is business, I totally understand that. But lets temper that statement with a modicum of sense and not an utter lack of class and a total lack of the sense of the history of what they are destroying.
