Hoping that one of our bat collectors could give me some info on this Spalding bat, esp. about when it was made. It is a real club! Just under 32" long with a very thick handle and is really heavy. I can make out "Gold Medal" on what is left of one of the decals. Wannabe photographer that I am, I had to group the ball and well worn glove with it. :wink:

Great bat. It was made early 1900's.

Cool bat and glove but that ball in box is simply stunning. What a great pickup that was. Wow!

Thanks JD! Yeah the ball w/box was a really lucky ebay BIN from a couple of years ago. The bat came from an antique mall (back when I actually used to find stuff). Ah, the good old days. :roll:
