Thurman Munson Game Used Bat?

[MudvilleSlugger]

Is there anybody that can help me decide if this is a genuine Game Used Bat from Thurman Munson. I have attatched 3 pictures of it. It is a 34 inch bat according to the seller. I would appreciate any help you can give me. thank you

Anything stamped on the knob?

I can't tell you if it's authentic or not but if you can get the model number of the bat there are those on the forum that can tell you if Munson ordered that model bat in that size during the specific labeling period. Good luck!

How do I get the model number? is it on the knob on the bottom of the bat?

Was this the one on craigslist. Should never really post about a item because it aint hard for others to find it. If it is the same one, someone got a steal at $300.

model number S44 on bottom. And it is a 34 inch bat. Let me know if this helps. thank you

Thats the model number he always ordered but i don't know if he ever ordered on in 34 inches.

Based on Munson's personal H & B order records (7-3-68 to 7-30-79), there is no documentation that he ever ordered model S44 bats in a 34 inch length. In fact all S44 bats ordered during his career were 35 inches in length, with one order at 35.5 inches (1976).


Only one H & B order by Munson is documented with a length of 34 inches -- model S2 in April, 1969, at 30 oz and 31 oz in weight.
