While we're on the topic of Stall and Deans.. Heres my Eddie Collins.. Very different in appearance. The Longer one doesn't appear to ever have had a decal.

WOW!!!! Those are awesome bats MGH.
As far as store model and Stall & Dean bats go according to what I've read no Stall & Dean gamers have ever been found. It is assumed that all of them are store model bats. Not sure how they can know that, but I'm not an expert.

All great bats that everyone has shown!!
Fantastic Delahanty decal MGH!! I find it interesting that Jim Delahanty and Ping Bodie would "merit" a decal bat - their careers were average at best - I believe. Certainly not of the same stature as Speaker and Collins.
What other "average" players have decal bats from any of the manufacturers?

Here's a few of my favorite bats. The first is a Spalding bat that weighs around 55oz.The second is a J F Hillerich ring bat when they were located on First Street. The ring is on the end and doesn't show real good in the photo. The third bat is a Goldsmith ball knob bat. The fourth is a Spalding Willie Keeler bat.

Re: Lets see some Pre WWI bats!!!
Is the Goldsmith ball knob available for trade or purchase?

Re: Lets see some Pre WWI bats!!!
Here is my favorite bat of all of my decal bats. I think it dates to around 1880-1890. The Spalding logo and rings just jump off this bat. The vintage patina is fantastic but best of all---with such a huge monster to hit with---it weighs an unbelievable 17.1 oz. (Light as a feather)
