    Looking for opinions on this Mel Ott bat

    I recently picked up this Hillerich and Bradsby Mel Ott 016 model bat. It is 35" and 32 oz, and matches the one that sold on Goldin Auctions recently.

    Here is a link to the auction: http://goldinauctions.com/mobile/lot...h___bradsby_o1

    There seems to be a lot of varying opinions regarding this model being a team index or player issued. From what I understand, there was an order of 016 bats ordered by Ott but it was crossed out.

    The bat is untracked, shows solid use, and is in incredible condition considering its age. Would like to hear some opinions on what you guys think I may have.

    For some reason it's only letting me attach one photo at a time. So I'll be making a couple posts to get them all up.

          Team index. Looks like center brand C-14 in Maltas book which would be 1948-49(after Ott's career).
