I picked up this Hillerich & Bradsby bat earlier today:

I am looking to find out what era this bat might be from?

An estimation on value, if any?

The bat is 34" long.

Thanks,

Turner E.

I think it's from around the 1920's. But i don't know about value.

Brock is right...Looks to be a 1920's bat. I'm assuming its cracked by where the tape is located, but my guess on value is in the $75 range.

looks like early 1920s as stated above, very cool looking

I have sold similar bats for 100.00 or so

A 1920's bat for sure. $75-100 would be about right.

If there is a nasty crack, nails, screw, or missing wood under the tape, it is more likely a $50-$60 bat. I love this model and script text, but condition is critical in the valuation of store model bats unless extremely scarce.
