Measuring 33” in length and weighing 37 ounces, this professional model bat introduced the 125 model to the major leagues. During the previous years, bats were sans the 125 designation. The 125 model was adopted by H&B Company as the professional model, and Louisville Slugger still uses it today.
Deeply factored stamped, this ash bat was produced from high grade professional grain wood. 10” of vintage, possible factory applied black tape remains on the handle. Both the “JF Hillerich & Son” and “Oil Tempered” centerbrand remain in phenomenal high grade condition. With the exception of a 3”x4” spotted area on the reverse, the bat remains in near mint condition. Rare opportunity to own the first 125 model bat.
