Thanks, knob has K55.

Roberts wore numbers 36 and 38 throughout his career ( with the Phillies, Orioles, Astros, and Cubs) not 34.

Could you post more pictures and what is the model number on the knob.

Yeah, didn't look like anything was underneath the label.

I'd try to get your jersey back.

If you google "robin Roberts game used bat". It brings up one that sold in coaches corner auction. It was a model B188. And I doubt it was really robin Roberts.

That's late 60s labeling.

Re: Robin Roberts game used bat.

Malta's book shows only 7 bats total for Roberts' career -- three in '51 and one each in 1953-56. All 7 listed as H117 models, 34 inches long, 33 ounces, block letter, standard finish. The four later bats are all All-Star Game bats -- so Roberts essentially was shipped three regular bats in '51 and that's it. No orders after 1956. Which begs the question -- is your bat from 1951? If not, it could have belonged to another Roberts.

Re: Robin Roberts game used bat.

Sorry, it shows 34 inches!

Re: Robin Roberts game used bat.

Vince Maltas book shows he only ordered H117 and they were 35 inches long.

Re: Robin Roberts game used bat.

Here is H&B info.

I traded a Lis Phillies Flanned to great Southampton PA collector for a Robin Roberts bat. I am trying to get info so that I can sell. It is 35" just under 32oz, block letter ROBERTS. Looks like last couple of years of career based on H&B info. Heavy lefty use, light right use. What should be on the knob?
