A buddy of mine sent me a link to this auction.

This is a cull bat. During show and tell we brand junk bats with whatever is set up in the burn brander. The bats are then sold in the gift shop for $16 a piece. The bat pictured is Maple, so we would not have burn branded it. The end brand says C243 but the knob is a C271 style so it is most likely an I13. If we were to make a "prototype" for a player it is never left whole, it would have been destroyed.

So anyway I hope no one here was the winner of this auction.

BMH -

Maybe Ken will discuss where they got their info here.

Also, maybe this will open the door to Goldin Auctions (and others) to go straight to the source when LVS bats come up that may need some background history.

Hope all is well with you.

someone had a nice return on a $16 investment

all kidding aside, I'm sure Ken will do the right thing
