ADDENDUM: UPON CLOSER INSPECTION IT APPEARS THAT ONE OF THE ROTATING ARMS IS A REPLACEMENT. ALSO ON THIS REPLACEMENT ARM ABOUT 1" AT THE END HAS BEEN BROKEN OFF RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF THE CROSS PIECE AT THE END.
This circa 1960s H&B metal bat rack is both decorative and functional. Each of the six rotating arms is constructed to hold twelve bats thus a total of seventy-two bats can be displayed at one time. Crafted by the esteemed H&B Company it stands 4 feet high to the top of the original signpost (10-1/2" x 6-1/2") which features the embossed lettering "LOUISVILLE SLUGGER - BATS - HILLERICH & BRADSBY Co. - MADE IN U.S.A. - LOUISVILLE KY." All of the rack's gold-painted metal components are original and unrefurbished bearing only minor surface chips and handling/storage wear scattered throughout the surface. Functional yet attractive compact yet with a sizeable capacity this bat rack is an ideal display medium for the devoted collector of game-used or autographed baseball bats. The arms easily detach for transport however due to the size and weight the cost of shipping may be substantial.
