1905?-1920? Draper & Maynard Logo

[bat_master]

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for the help. I think the bat I have is from right around 1910.

Have you run into any D&M signature model bats? I know some are offered in the 1937 D&M catalog as "No. 100 "Player Name" Bats Tempur-ized and Grain Sealed". Haven't seen any catalogs from before that though.

I had seen the D&M bats offered by Art Jaffe and have emailed him for help, but haven't received a response yet.

The reason I'm thinking 1910 for mine is that I found a D&M advertisement that featured the 1910 Chicago Cubs and the centerbrand in the photo seemed to be a match to mine in shape and size.

I got outbid on this 1911 D&M catalog. You may want to contact the high bidder.

I'm going to do that. I've also contacted a few other winners of D&M catalogs so hopefully I'll have some basis for comparision in the next few days.

Thanks again!
