Never made it to a World Series, and the best hitter never to have done so, second baseman Rod Carew handled this Hillerich and Bradsby circa 1973-75 while still with the Minnesota Twins, and culminating a 4th straight batting title in 1975 (on his way to 1977’s A.L. MVP, and seven batting titles overall). This model M159 has Carew's facsimile signature burned into barrel. Vintage "29" in marker on the knob and barrel end. Light use, and uncracked. A witness to an amazing period in the career of one of the all time great hitters. Measures just over 34".
