Re: Suave here's something for you !
GUYS WOW THANK YOU FOR POINTING THIS OUT!!!
WHEN I SAW THIS I STARTED DROOLING LOL LO
BUT UNFORTUNATELY AFTER LOOKING OVER THE PICTURES THERE ARE TOO MANY RED FLAGS FOR ME.
The Handle is taped - Strawberry to the best of my knowledge never and after reviewing many photos from the 80's never saw Strawberry tape a handle.
The 18 on the knob is questionable too its a bit off from Strawberry hand writing.
I AM GONNA DO SOME MORE HOMEWORK BEFORE I CONSIDER MAKING A PURCHASE!!
lets not forget they just had the game used strawberry jersey for sale lol lolComment

Suave,
I do have recall seeing some photo with Straw using a Rawlings Adirondack with criss cross tape though i completely agree it's not the norm. I'll see if I can dig it out as I believe it was in a year book.
The letter/COA attached to the bat is very strange and may be considered and eye sore to some.
HB in the old days used to display real gamers in stores and used to attach documentation like that to those bats and this Straw reminded me of this practice.

Re: Suave here's something for you !
Swoboda all you have to do is do a quick search there was recently a big thread on the Strawberry Jersey and I believe other Jerseys that they sold that was questionable.
I believe it would be in the Auction category.Comment

Suave,
The 86 Mets commerative prints that were given out at the 86 Mets National Pastime Reunion shows in the ninties shows Strawberry using a Rawlings with the handle taped.
I looked all over for this photo (yearbooks, cards) as I distinctly remember see this taped bat and it was hanging on my wall all this time!
Enjoy!

Suave.
I agree you cannot really tell on the photo you posted which was from 87 as evidenced by the scripted New York on the road uni, whether its tar or tape. Could go either way.
However I think you now have definitive proof that he did at least use one bat with the same criss cross tape handle as the B&E home run bat. It's definitely a rare bird.
If one can take the Straw letter off the barrel of the HR bat you would be able to see any hit marks which may match up to the one on the bat in the poster.

Re: Suave here's something for you !
The B&E bat is taped up to a level much closer to the blue ring where as the print bat is not, therefore Straw definitely had at least two bats with taped handles.
Needless to say the print bat is not the B&E bat.

Re: Suave here's something for you !
DAVID NO NEED!!
Look at the tape on the hands that doesnt match up or at least it seems it doesnt match up
The one on ebay looks like the tape goes almost all the way up to the blue ring. As the one on the poster does not. Actually the one on the poster looks clsoer to the one from the Gettys picture.Comment
