Re: Show me some different bat brands....

Mike, thanks for the Glomar info. I find it interesting how businesses fold or succeed. A lot of good old fashioned sweat and hard work and to see it all end in a storage locker? Kinda sad.

Seeing one of my (local) favorites -- Glomar --- pictured in a previous post reminded me of the brand and its demise. The story can be found here:

Added an Alexi Casilla Carrera to the collection. About the 114th different brand in the collection.

Picked this up off the bay for my oddball collection. It's a BON, which stands for Best or nothing.

Centauri, I missed your post on this. I really like that Manny Zett as well. I also like the logo on that Viper! Thanks for posting.

Here are some different ones I've picked up. The Manny Ramirez Zett bat is my favorite in my collection (mainly Indians). It is photo matched exactly, or at least very very close.

Re: Show me some different bat brands....

Thought I would bump this with a few additions, hoping someone has picked up some new or oddball brands to show off for everyone interested. The Georgia Cracker logo was filled in, it was faded and I wanted to be able to see it.

I remember the Stick by Stan store at the old Veterens Stadium, with regards to actual Stick by Stan gamers, with a little digging, you can see
Bobby Abreu and Scott Rolen 'stick by stan' gu bats, as they both
used them sporadically.....

The stick by stan store was super cool, always wondered why they
did away with it??

The following are: Caliburn, Dove Tail Bat (DTB), Fonza, Mad Dog, and Mt. Rushmore. Rushmore used to have better red,white, and blue logo's, with presidents names being used for models.

Re: Show me some different bat brands....

This week I'd like to post a few more different brands. The top is a Roy Hobbs, have no idea where I got it, but the logo is cursive and I like it. The next is an RG Johnson, which had been around in the NE (Maine) for many years. Johnson's Grandson Bob Logan was a teacher who ran the business on the side for many years. Very glad to pick one of these up before they went out of business. Winfield tried one of these, but Johnson's were mainly popular among non affiliated players. Next is an M Powered, then Diamond Club with the baseball as the "O" in Diamond. Last is an East Coast Sticks. Thanks for reading and looking!
