Show off your *ERROR* bats

Coming across these photos today prompted me to put this thread together. Here are a few error bats to start the ball rolling... feel free to show off yours!

Here's an Al Liter (Leiter), what I thought may have been an Ed Pearn (HEARN?) though I believe it may actually be a Joe PEARN bat (minor league catcher), and the infamous Derek Jeter Mets game bat.

This is my Bernard Gilkey bat - a rookie bat, no less...which makes it understandable why LS spelled his name BENARD. He laughed when I showed it to him not long ago.

I've got one of those "Benard Gilkey" bats, too.

I also have a few Greg Colbrunn "Greg Colburnn" Easton bats, which Greg told me were some of the best bats he ever used.

Here's a Jessie Grosco (Orosco) error bat which I purchased but never received on ebay. It's still lost in USPS land

1977-79 Louisville Slugger Bill "Mad Dog" Madlock game used bat, model C253

Model number should be either C235 or C263 - numbers were transposed by brander during the branding process.

Benny Agbayani New York Mets error bats. The first bat shows Philadelphia Phillies (a team he never played for). The next two are "AGBANYANI" bats. Sorry for the blurred photo.

I'm sure Brian isn't happy with LS error bats from a QA standpoint, but these bats are unique collectables.

By the way, my favorite so far is David's Derek Jeter New York Mets bat.

Kind Regards,

Ron.

Actually this thread has made me feel much better about it. I thought my guys were the only ones to do this sort of thing. At least mine have the excuse being in thier late 50's/early 60's trying to see 1/4in. type set...

I still have one guy who tries to get creative with a silver sharpie "fixing" mistakes
