This
Thurman Munson, Bat Day Bat is from one of the most Favorite of Yankee
Stadium Giveaways, Bat Day. Made by
the Hillerich &
Bradsby co. of Louisville, KY. This bat I believe to
be from 1971 One way of determining the age of
the bats are variations on the barrel such as players
name; script or block, Team name; script or block, the
order the team name, the players name, and approved
little league appears on the barrel as well as center
brand variations which include H&B, Hillerich &
Bradsby co., Made in USA, and Made in Canada as the
1969, and 1970 bats have. Pro exists atop the
center brand on all bat day baseball bats made by Hillerich &
Bradsby co. The Bat when it was new had a solid yellow finish. Most
bats from that era have most of the Yellow finish
missing, with the wood grain showing through, or bare
wood.
