Re: post your July pick-ups

A big shout out goes to Tim Byington of HOF Bats for my latest pickup. If you're reading, Thanks Tim! It's a 1933-34 LVS Dick Bartell bat. Bartell is from my hometown and this is a great addition to my collection. I somehow missed this in the Hunt's February auction but Tim had the chance to pick it up and contacted me if I was interested and I jumped at the chance to own it.

The bat shows very heavy use and originates I believe from a Hunt Auction that they had in conjunction with Louisville Slugger in 2005. If I remember correctly it came from the LVS vaults or something like that. Does anyone remember this particular auction??

Dewey, what are all those marks on the end of the barrel? They almost look like cleats marks, but some of them seem to go really deep (More than cleat marks would).

They are mostly cleat marks but there is also some wear on the wood so that what makes some of them look deeper then normal.

That's a great Bartell bat! I see it selling in 2005, but not this Feb. I definitely would have scooped it up!

Thanks Ken! If you search under Dick Bartell in Hunt's completed auction results you'll see it. Amazingly enough it did not get any bids in '05.

2009 Eric Hinske- Gray Yankees pants worn in the World Series. I was thrilled when I opened these up and found them to be unwashed!! The back side and front leg are covered in dirt. Easily video matched to his 1 and only WS game. Tremendous wear!

Great Dewey bat. Great Heath Bell glove. Love both those guys. I got the Dee Brown gamer on ebay. He didn't advertise it as game used. Just put it in the category where you buy replica jerseys like at Foot Locker. Just luck. I typed in Dee Brown and there it was. Probably haven't typed in Dee Brown for years. Good Karma on this one!

Awesome Smoak bat. Is it MLB authenticated, do you have it photomatched.

This is a team issued Mauer 3rd jersey factory 2nd from the Majestic factory 0062 code. I don't think Mauer wears a 52 but I picked it up for $50.I'll never touch one of his gamers so this will do

Re: post your July pick-ups

the smoak bat has a mlb holo that states it was used for first career hit and first career hr. I was able to match it to the first hit, and maybe the first hr. I could get any good stills of the barrel, but you can see the hologram already attached to the knob at the bottum.
