Vintage Baseball bat 1960s. Mickey Mantle Louisville Slugger 125. 32in
My wife's father bought this bat in the 1960's and had it imported to Australia (along with two others). The bat is in terrific condition. This bat we are 99% confident, has never been used. It has been stored with two other bats that we know have never been used, and it is in virtually the same condition. The only difference between this one and the other two, is that the barrel end is a bit grubby (see photo) which we put down to storage, not use. Note: this is the real deal. It is a "powerized" bat, not a "flame tempered". It has a facsimile autograph, not a block letters name for Mickey Mantle. The lack of any underlining of the 125 on the brand, as well as the small R in a circle after the words Louisville Slugger - and no other small R in a circle anywhere else - confirms my wife's memory: it was manufactured some time between 1965 and 1968. For how to tell if a bat is a genuine vintage one or not. This bat was made while Mickey Mantle was still playing (he retired in early 1969 after the end of the 1968 series). The number 2 on the knob shows it is 32 inches.
The weight given for this wooden bat is approximate; my scales I use are okay, but not perfect. It has been stored for the last 50 years. We will sell and post to anywhere in Australia or the USA.
