Felipe Alou bat records

[ghostkid]

Hi Guys,

I've got a friend looking for a Felipe Alou game used bat. I've checked my references and cannot find any Alou shipping records. Does anyone have shipping records for Felipe Alou and know where my friend can find one for sale? Thanks...

I'm not much help on this one. I only have his fungo records.

Hi Kevin--
Here is some basic preliminary info on Felipe Alou's H & B bats by labeling period from 10/19/56 through 3/5/74 --- ** indicates most frequent ordered in the period

1956-1960: O1** (1956 through mid-1958 / 34 inch and 35 inch). F4 (34.5" and 35"), R43 (35"), S2 (35")

1961-1964: F4 (34.5"), O16 (34.5" and 35"), D2** (35"), H4(35"), K44 (35.5")

1965-1968: D2 (35"), K44** (35.5" and 36"), A109 (35.5"), U1 (35")

1969-1972 : U1 (35"), K44** (35", 35.5" and 36"), O1 (35"), M110 (34.5"), G105 (35")

1973-1974: C232 (35" and 35.5"), U1 (35"), O16 (35"), K44 (35")

Most of Alou's bats were in the 33 to 36 ounce weight range after 1963...prior to that primarily 32 to 33 ounces.

Good Luck-- if there are more specific questions regarding Felipe Alou's bats, let me know. Also, of interest may be the nicest Moises Alou 2007 Game Used and autographed bat you will ever see in the current GUU auction-- be sure to check it out.
