I was searching for Billy Ripken bats once and came across on the Ripken Foundation website where they had chopped up a Griffey, a Billy Ripken and a Cal Ripken Jr. cracked bat and made them into pens.
Between crap like that and those game used cards i cant stand it.Comment

I'd be interested to see how many of these have been purchased...
I am imgagining a corporate holiday party where this is the 'gift'.
They have magazines and catalogs dedicated to pen collecting, and it's a pretty unique item - at least they used something certified by MEARS (unlike many of the card companies did)...
Sure, someone made a mistake by cutting up an artifact, but I would most certainly not turn one down if it was given to me as a gift.Dave

...but on a more serious note...I think the idea is neat if the bat is destroyed or you only have a piece of it, but not when you take a perfectly good bat and do that. I cried a bit when I saw that picture...complete with mears COA LMAO. It says that the pen and the box are included...I don't see the box in the picture unless the box is the bat handle.
Somebody told me that they saw cufflinks made out of old baseball stadium items (like the the chairs etc). Thought that was a neat idea, but I like to imagine that they make these items out of already damaged items no longer worthy of display or use.
This brings me to my new collecting foundation called "Save The Artifact". We collect all items of game use to preserve them in there current state and keep them away from the malicious card companies that plan on cutting them up or other hobbiests looking to deface and destroy the historical pieces. Anyone wishing to donate to the newly formed foundation can do so through paypal...send it to hotstab@gmail.com.
