This trio of bats celebrates the storied career of “The Earl of Baltimore.”   Includes:

 

1) Louisville Slugger brown bat (NR-MT) embossed “National Baseball Hall of Fame. August 4, 1996. Exclusive Edition.” The names of the 1996 Inductees are embossed as well: Edward Hanlon, Jim Bunning, W.H. Foster, and Earl Weaver.

 

2) Adirondack 302F Earl Weaver model (NR-MT) with metal plaque inscribed “Baltimore Orioles - 1979 American League Champions - 102 Wins, 57 Losses, .642.” Signed boldly by Earl Weaver (“9”).

 

3) Adirondack 302F Earl Weaver model bat with metal plaque inscribed “Baltimore Orioles - 1971 American League Champions - For the Third Consecutive Time Over 100 Wins in All Three Years.” Scuffing has removed much of the label, and small sections of lettering are also affected on the barrel and the plaque. The signature ("10") is unaffected.
