Nolan was far more adept at breaking these things with his "Express" than swinging them, but he too had a signature model bat -- this Lousville Slugger M110 -- for those awkward moments when he had to stand in against someone else's pitching. The fact that he signed this never-used one of the lot makes it a great keeper. Inscription on barrel is, "To Steve, Best Wishes, Nolan Ryan" in blue marker, grading a very nice 8/10. Bat has no use and is great Ryan display piece.
