Lot #1360:

1920's (Jackie?) Hayes H&B Louisville Slugger Professional Model Side Written Game Used Bat - Senators, Millers (MEARS Auction LOA)

What we have here is a failure to communicate. It is a block letter last name only Hayes bat from the 1922-30 era. It is side written simply (Hayes) 33 oz. Athletic Supply with no readable date. The problem here is that Jackie Hayes played with Washington from 1927-31 and was arguably the best Hayes during this era but there are other players named Hayes such as Jim, Drap, Hawks, Leslie, Paul and Walter all playing in the majors/minors during this era. But if you need a Jackie Hayes for your collection, it is just as likely him as any of the others and would fill that spot. Bat shows heavy game use, is cracked, and measures 34" and weighs 32 oz. Would the real Hayes please stand up.
