I received this info today and thought I'd post it for those that might not be on GameUsedBats.com's mailing list:

Dear Friends,

During the last few months we've come across a center brand variation that appears on Hillerich & Bradsby bats manufactured in 1950. The variation can be considered transitional, as H&B adopted 'REG. U. S. PAT. OFF' in place of 'TRADE MARK REG.' under the oval on their center brand.

Here is a link to full details on the variation as it appears on the PSA/DNA website. http://www.psacard.com/articles/article_view.chtml?artid=7145 (http://www.psacard.com/articles/article_view.chtml?artid=7145)

The variation is quite rare and if you have examples in your collection, I would appreciate it if you could share with us by email a few photos of the bat and the player name so we can add the information to our database.

I trust the information will be helpful as you research future additions to your collection. If you have questions, please contact us by email or phone at 609-487-8003.

Regards,
John
