...not really. http://cgi.ebay.com/JACKIE-ROBINSON-Pro-Model-GAME-USED-Bat-COA-LOA-PSA-DNA_W0QQitemZ130298039931QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_Def aultDomain_2?hash=item130298039931&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1240%7C66%3A4%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A200
And quoted from PSA/DNA:
"Notes: Model Number: Jackie Robinson, Length: 34 in., Weight: 33.7 oz., Wood: Ash, Wood Finish: Standard, Labeling period: Circa 1965, and Condition: Uncracked, Written Identification: Unmarked. Use Attributes: None. Autograph: None."
It upsets me quite a bit that people try to pull this stuff. I know from my experiences selling Jackie cards on eBay that people beyond baseball have an emotional attachment to #42 with good reason and this person will likely take someone for $20k+. Now he may also not understand the PSA/DNA letter but if you're selling an item like that, you better know whether or not the item is authentic. In any case it's either negligence or pure fraud and it pisses me off. I just needed to get this off my chest.
