Description

Good condition/ age probably 110-115yrs! Emile Kinst original Patent model (July 17, 1890)...? Designed to create extra spin on hit balls (more difficult to field)…and create a more solid line drive to the side of field of batter’s choice depending upon how the bat is gripped! It’s no wonder MLB banned it as a prototype for the official bat!!!…nobody seems sure, but very few were ever produced ; let alone still exist... This is be the holy grail of baseball bats... possibly the LAST EXISTING ONE ☝️ that hasn’t been auctioned….similar sold @ auction for $5288. (In 2010) ...Plus probably 10-15% auction house fee.... Faded stamp clearly shows manufactured in Chicago/ Dec/ 1906? : same as the famous Billy Sullivan one (see all pics for stamping)...which was the $5288 bat! Also, a 1913 White Sox Team banana bat sold @ auction for $5316!! These are bona fide examples of what this bat could be worth! Collectors: make a reasonable offer and it’s yours! Baseball items & serious collectors go hand in hand... exchange this today and it’s yours for $2999! Text “$2999” to get this $445 discount!! Sale is final.
