Adirondack Big Stick M63 game-used Willie Mays bat is a fine example of Willie Mays’ weapon of choice during this period in his career. Used in the late 1960’s by the Hall of Fame Giants outfielder, the bat displays evidence of game use with light ball marks on the barrel and remnants of pine tar on the handle. Bat is consistent in every way to the bats Mays typically used during this 2-year period. Displays a very large black marker signature on the barrel, “Best Wishes, Willie Mays” (6-inch pitch to the autograph). Grades “8” out of a possible 10. Bat is uncracked and in nice display condition. Weighs 36.5 ounces, which is within the player specification tolerances (Mays typically ordered bats specifying 35 ounces). Accompanied by 5 different LOA’s.
