I’m selling off the remainder of a collection I purchased a few months ago from a former Cardinals employee. He was a full-time grounds crew member from 1999 to 2001 and worked part time after that. He’s now the head groundskeeper for our local minor league team. Many MLB teams are represented, including some AL teams that visited Busch during his tenure. All bats are cracked (unless noted) and several have been repaired. These are priced to sell. Photos available upon request. Buyers pay actual shipping. Thanks for looking!
