We had to move some stuff around to get it all to fit on the bat. He wanted exact copies of his game model with the extra stamping. It was a lot of work and not a lot of fun. The original order was for 500...100 of the 500 were made and he never ordered more.

These bats also look like the 125th anniversary logo is located where the M9 sticker or Louisville Slugger oval should be. The photos don't show the center brand and it's hard to tell if it's missing with the anniversary logo in it's place.

This is a question for Brian regarding these special commerative Gary Sheffield 500th home run bats

http://cgi.ebay.com/GARY-SHEFFIELD-SIGNED-SPECIAL-500TH-HR-BAT-METS-4-17-09_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ65Q3a1Q7c66Q3a2Q7c39Q3a1Q7c293Q3a4Q7c294Q3a50QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem5881d743acQQitemZ380135490476QQptZLHQ5fDefaultDomainQ5f0QQsalenotsupported

Can you please tell us approximately how many of these special bats were produced? Are these game issue bats (with the knob stampings) or strictly replica bats?

Thanks in advance!
