Wall Bat Display

[TimothyJ]

About a month ago I traveled with a group of family members to Boston for 9 days to take in a few games at Fenway Park and explore the city. None of us had ever been there before, but have been Red Sox fans for many years. Because of this, we made sure to take the tour of Fenway Park while we were there. At the end of the tour you finish in a "museum" of Red Sox history. Being in this section of Fenway Park is what led me to this hobby. Below is a wall in the "museum" that pushed me over the edge.



In my office at work, I would like to replicate one of the display boxes on the wall. I enjoy the clear and modern look of the acrylic box directly on the wall. I have started to plan what I will do for the six different bats, but am looking for ideas on how to pull off the look.

Any suggestions or input is greatly appreciated.

That's a great display they have but it looks like it could be quite costly. You could start with something like this (http://www.staggsports.com/ProductHorizontalBat.htm) but you might have to have the acrylic custom made.

I am still in the process of redoing my room but I plain on using this (http://www.ebay.com/itm/300491790082...84.m1436.l2649) for my bats.

Here's an acrylic bat display case: http://www.casesforcollectibles.com/batdisplaycase.html

They also make custom acrylic covers, so if you don't like their case, you can make your own, provided you have an option for the bat holders.

My family & I went in 2012 and this is what it looked like then...My first trip to Fenway, but I'll never forget it...hopefully we'll get to go back some time. Its a long trip from Alabama.

It is a very cool area and display room. Me and 5 others went for our first time to Fenway from Nebraska. I surely understand the "long way away" concept.

If someone buys that case let us know how it looks and take a pic. I like that a lot but would get it without the mirrored backing.

I put this up in my room as it's super cheap and I think looks good. Also I love being able to grab the bats whenever I want.

Do you know if it blocks UV light? It doesn't mention it on there site.

The Acrylic with the mirror looks nice. I might do 1 and put my best 6 bats in it but for my majority I am going to continue to go with these. I think you can go up to 15. If you do it yourself you can go wall to ceiling.
