    Bat Identification - Help

    Hi - I am taking Rudy's (and others) adivce to get off the bench and post something rather then just reading (which is very enjoyable, by the way. A ton of great knowledge coursing through this forum).

    I am looking for help. I have an old bat that I would like some more information on - I have attached pictures to help with the process. The bat has these markings:

    M.R. CAMPBELL LEAGUE Tullahoma, TENN (with an oval chain pattern around it)

    Also, someone has carved 'R P H' into it back in the day.

    No idea on the weight (except that it is heavier then the two other game used bats I have) and it is 33 3/4" long.

    The only thing I have been able to find out so far came from the Chamber of Commerece in Tullahoma. They said that M.R. Campbell was a wealthy mill owner who used to give kids silver dollars on the street around Christmas time back in the 20's/30's. Nice story but not much help with the bat.

    Any info would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks

    Tom
