Lot 1542: Roger Maris Signed Bat
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
Maris signatures have recently zoomed in value due to baseball's steroid scandal, and his marker here on one of the more unique bats you'll ever see is even better, as it's most rare to find his signature on a bat. Bat from The Batsmith was hand-carved in 1981 and signed that year at the Major-Minor League Meetings in Hollywood by around 30 big league players and managers in red marker on the barrel between whittlings of "Hollywood-1981" connected to each other within a holed-out area. Other signatures include Hank Aaron, Frank Robinson, Lefty Gomez, Sparky Anderson, Earl Weaver, Joe Torre, Billy Martin, Dick Williams, Bobby Cox, John McNamara, the "San Diego Chicken", and many more. Signatures and bat EX-MT. LOA.
