Thurma Munson Bat on Ebay
Does anyone know if Munson taped his bat handles? I don't recall ever seeing this.

Here's a photo I found on Getty. This bat looks like it has tape.

Re: Thurma Munson Bat on Ebay
The Munson bat is solid and Munson occasionally did tape the handle of his bats as pictured. The bat boy story is legit, as I have spoken to that guy in the past and you can't get a Munson with more provenance than that. It's getting up in price and nice Munson bats are hard to find........good luck to anyone bidding! Jim

Re: Thurma Munson Bat on Ebay
That was a really nice looking bat, so was the Mantle the same guy was offering. If i had the money i would love to add a Munson bat to my collection. This photo is the only item i have of something relating to munson, and i dont know if its real. The person before me said it had failed PSA and JSA because its not a full autograph. And the person he got it from had two Thurman checks which were real, its all he say he say. But i believe it's real, the t,h and m are spot on. What do you guys think. Sorry about the T it's right on top of a dark spot. It's also signed by Rick Miller.

Re: Thurma Munson Bat on Ebay
That signature looks bad in my opinion. I would like to here Sammy's opinion, but I think he will agree with me...
Regards,
Dave

Re: Thurma Munson Bat on Ebay
$5600 WOW!! I liked the bat, just tough to spend $5600 without being able to handle the bat first. I figured it would sell for about $4300.
