Cool Bat Phtos

I love seeing pictures of players when great bats and/or equipment end up being part of the shot. Let's see some of your favorites. Below is one I just saw on ebay:

My favorite

[Birdbats]

Here are a couple of my favorites. The first is from around 1982 (he's loading Keith Hernandez bats into the rack).



The second is from the late 1940s or early 1950s. Note it's a non-contract model. Nobody seems to be able to pinpoint the year when Stan stopped using signature models and went to the non-contract "MUSIAL MODEL"... if only I could read the text under the oval, I would at least know if it's a '40s or a '50s model.

Here's an old promo photo of Ed Hearn. He's holding his 1986 Rawlings Adirondack orange ring World Series bat.
