ITEM DESCRIPTION

||||||||||||
From one of the biggest bats in all of baseball comes one of the biggest bats of all. During the days Ruth ruled the diamond this large piece of lumber sat atop his Louisville Slugger in-store display. The mammoth “George ‘Babe’ Ruth” signature model H&B has remained in stellar condition, retaining its rich color and displaying only two minor chips and scrapes. No longer just a piece of advertisement this finely crafted novelty has risen to the status of folk art.
