Extremely rare and from the early stages of his career, this Ty Cobb special predates models on the center brands and reads: "Made By JF Hillerich & Sons" in the middle of the center brand. The colorful decal on the barrel features an image of Cobb and his facsimile signature, along with the wording: "Ty Cobb Uses The Louisville Slugger Bat Exclusively." The decal is 90+% intact and has some scuffing but is one of the only examples that we have ever seen of this particular decal. The 33.5" full-size bat is lightly used with slight grain separation on the back of the barrel. SCD hologram on cup.
