My buddy was at a few garage sales about 3 years ago, now mind you my buddy is well known for antiques he makes a living on Ebay for selling items........anyways, he was at a estate sale here in the Binghamton area he come across an old wooden bat the bat had all the markings of an old MLB bat used by players of that era. Well come to find out the bat markings were the same exact markings Lou Gehrig used, so my buddy had the bat looked at by an expert and according to the expert he was 99% sure the bat was indeed a bat used by Lou Gehrig himself.......That bat remains locked away,best find he has ever found he refuses to sell it.
BTW Nice find yourself.
