In the early 1980s the Baseball Hall of Fame began issuing brown bats in commemoration of each Hall of Fame induction year. The bats, produced by H&B, are similar in design to World Series black bats and bear the date of the induction, as well as the names of the inductees, stamped in gold along the barrel. These bats were only available through the Hall of Fame and were limited in number. Presented here is an incredible complete run of brown Hall of Fame induction bats from 1936-2011, plus 2013 and 2016 (72 in total). Each bat is in NM-MT or better condition and all but one are still in there original plastic sleeves and shipping boxes as issued by the Hall of Fame. All but six of the bats share the same edition number, 157. The six bats that are not number 157 are: 1936 (#311), 1979 (#311), 1982 (#311), 1984 (#454), 1987 (#311), and 1988 (#259).
