Joe DiMaggio H&B Game Bat Question

[vegas]

Hello,
Please take a look at this bat and offer any information you may know about this type of bat?
It appears to have been dipped in Silver.
It is Model "D29" and is 36 inches long and also has Prototype written on the knob. Look's to be late 40's era.
Thanks for any help on this one.

I don't think that bat is any near 1940's. Looks like it might have been a recent reproduced bat based on the 2 directly over the & sign.

Cool bat. Do you have any history on it? The prototype on the handle makes me wonder about the age

Why don't you reach out to LS and the reps on this board and see if they have any information on it?

Tough to tell because the photo is small, but the "Powerized" appears to be the version adopted in 1964. Could you post a larger photo of the center brand and Powerized?
