Harmon Killebrew H&B pro model ("S207") bat dating from the 1965-69 manufacturing period. Graded GU 9.5 by PSA. The bat, which measures 35 inches and weighs 32.3 ounces, displays outstanding use along its entire length, including moderate checking (grain swelling/separation) on the back of the barrel from repeated ball contact, pine tar, and a small crack on the upper handle. Killebrew's uniform number ("3") is written on the knob in faded black marker. Killebrew led the league in home runs twice during the bat's referenced manufacturing period (1965-69). That span also included Killebrew's 1969 MVP season in which he led the league in home runs (49), RBI (140), and on-base percentage (.427). One of the greatest sluggers in baseball history, Killebrew led the American League in home runs on six different occasions and finished his career with 573 home runs and 1,584 RBI. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1984. Full LOA from PSA (graded GU 9.5).
