ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $300.00
Winning Bid: $925.77
Price Realized: $1,106.29
Auction Date:12/15/2006 9:00 PM EST

Subtle use, if any, highlights this historical Louisville Slugger, wielded by Brooklyn Dodger catcher Dixie Howell, and with its “World Series 1955 Howell Brooklyn Dodgers” burnt into its barrel, celebrating that Series which brought the title, finally, to the beloved bums, and out of the hands of the dynastic, upstart New York Yankees. Game bat is a Hillerich and Bradsby model K55, with “K55” stamped in knob. A great bat that comes right from the Howell family.
