    Game Used Bats For Sale - Liquidation of My Collection

    As many of you know, I'm a very passionate bat collector. Recently, I've come into a situation in which it is likely in my best interest to exit the hobby.

    I've met a great many people through bats, but in my quest to achieve a great collection of "keepers" I came to ignore the one keeper that I just can't do without, my wife.

    I'm selling absolutely everything that I own that is sports related. Here is a partial list, but I hope to get my website updated in the next few days to reflect my desertion of a great hobby.

    1921-30 H&B Harry Heilmann
    1921-30 H&B George Kelly
    1921-20 H&B Frankie Frisch
    1934-43 H&B Bob Doerr
    1950-60 H&B Ralph Kiner G69L (1950-51)
    1950-60 H&B Enos Slaughter M110 (1955)
    1961-64 H&B Carl Yastrzemski W166 (1964)
    1961-64 H&B Billy Williams S2 - (PSA LOA)
    1965-68 H&B Harmon Killebrew S207 (1965) - Auto
    1965-68 H&B Orlando Cepeda C232 (1966)
    1965-68 H&B Ernie Banks S2 (1967-68) - Auto
    1965-68 H&B Willie McCovey K55 (1967-68) - Auto (SCD LOA)

    Others:
    1914-19 D&M Johnny Evers Hand-Turned Professional Model Bat - (Evers bat has not been authenticated, but has the characteristics of a pro model including hand-turned knob & professional grain. Bat is similar in length to Evers' H&B index length and is very close in length and weight to a MEARS graded A10 bat which was sidewritten and vault marked). PDF file with information regarding this bat is available and can be sent upon request.

    1936-37 H&B Phil Weintraub
    1944-45 H&B Babe Herman H43
    1950-51 H&B Birdie Tebbetts R46
    1977-79 H&B Roy White R143
    1986 Rawlings Willie Randolph 259B

    I will try to update my website as soon as possible. I wish I could keep everything, but it is time for me to bow out.

    Thank you all for your interest and support. Maybe someday I'll return.

    Please send requests for prices and pictures to tim@hofbats.com. Please DO NOT reply to this thread as I won't be checking the forum in the near future, but will reply as quickly as possible to all emails and will send photos as quickly as I can.

    All items are first come, first serve so if you see something you like, don't hesitate to contact me.

    For those of you haven't dealt with Tim, I'll tell you that he is a class act, a truly upstanding guy. He did not ask me to post this, and I do not know what his situation is, but I can vouch for his ethics and the quality of his bats.

    Best of luck to those who are interested in what is clearly a top shelf collection.

        I have to join this praise for Tim. A REAL class act. You will be missed in this hobby Tim, as we need people of class like you.

          I've dealt with Tim over past year and I second those emotions.

          Truly one of the hobby's good guys!

          All the best to you Tim!
