Hello,
Heritage is auctioning a "game used" Musial bat from '62. However, the bat is a "personal" model. Does anyone know whether Musial would have used a "personal" model in MLB games. Thoughts very much appreciated; here's the link:
Thanks,

The records I have show that this model bat (57 B) was indeed ordered from 1961-1967. 34-35 in. 30/35 oz. (source comes from the book BATS..Malta,Fox,Riddell,and Specht) published in 1995.

The barrel label on this bat is one of the three acceptable variations found on professional model Adirondack bats of the period. These bats were made for the personal professional use of the player.
