Re: ‘Powerized’ Branding Variation on 1976 H & B Bicentennial Bats --- What ???
The biggest issue is that there has never been any photo proof of any major league ballplayer using a bat that has the 1976 Bicentennial logo and the powerized logo. Until that happens, I can't believe that they were ever used by a player. See Mike's post below point #4.

Re: ‘Powerized’ Branding Variation on 1976 H & B Bicentennial Bats --- What ???
Note that the dual branded 1976 Aaron recently on Ebay went for $ 690.00, a pretty hefty price for what is most likely (99%) a commemorative or promo bat, but still way below the price that would be commanded by a legitimate GU 1976 Aaron bat.

At least the Ebay seller termed it 'game-issued' rather than 'game-used.' Either way, however, even that description is not supported by any evidence that has surfaced in the last thirty-four years.
Keep an eye out for a future appearance of this bat (or any dual branded 1976 bat) with manufactured game use on it, as happened to a GUU member who purchased what he thought was a 'game-used' dual branded 1976 Bench bat.
