Asking for more help, this one with a Fisk bat

[perlman9]

Has any of his game used bats had his signature as Pudge Fisk? I have only seen block letter bats when searching google images but have a chance at one but cannot seem to match one with that inscription. It saysBig Stick on top, Pudge Fisk in auto in the center and Flame Treated on the bottom. Thanks for any help!

I've seen Adirondack GU bats of Fisk that say "Pudge Fisk" on the barrel.

Fisk had a contract with Adirondack so his Adirondacks were signature models. There were alot of Adirondack store model Fisk bats made so make sure you see a model number verses a single digit on the knobs. (ie 160B)

Fisk HB bats were primarily block letter bats.

Does model T141 sound like one of his as well?

T141 is certainly one of the more popular Fisk bat models he used in the 80's and 90's

great! I will pick both bats up and his gloves. Seller has his last pair of Chi-Sox shin guards but wants more for them than I want to pay, but if someone is interested he is asking $900 or so. Bats much cheaper, thankfully!

Be careful with the T141, that was the model that LV also made a ton of for "baseball promotions." I've seen many at auction that fall into this category.

Thanks Ken! I am hoping from the source it is good, is there anything special to look for on those? He says its loaded with pine tar and has his 72 on the knob but would want to be on the lookout for anything...

Excellent point Ken.

These would be the 86-89 ERA Louisville Sluggers.
