Notes: Hillerich and Bradsby Model number 125 Baseball Bat used by Babe Ruth during the 1932 Yankees World Championship season. 35’’ long and 36 ounces in weight. Babe Ruth ordered 12 of these bats in 1932, two of which were for the World Series (Called Shot series). PSA graded 8. Mears Graded A8. Two LOA’s.

Condition: Several ball marks are visible on the left barrel. Vintage photographs show Ruth gripping his bat with the center brand face down. This batting style brings the left barrell into contact with the ball when hit. There are several indications of wear on the back barrel, right barrel and handle. A face had been drawn on the knob (now faded). Excellent use. Uncracked.
