Louisville Slugger 40BR Babe Ruth decal batThe Louisville Slugger bat you have 40B.R. would be a A Babe Ruth (B.R.) model. The designation 40 BR was a secondary line of retail store model bats but some were made with a decal on the barrel and you did not mention this, nor did you mention his name being on the barrel if you had a signature model bat.

Because you did not mention that the bat has anything on the barrel I believe you have a decal bat without the decal, which has worn away.

With a decal bat the bulk of the value will rely on the condition of the decal and the percentage that is left. A bat with 80-90 percent of the decal could sell in the $1,000. price range and upwards to the $4,000. range. Without the decal it will have a very low value. Maybe in the $50. price range. The decal is everything. The 36 on the knob indicates that the bat measures 36 inches.

How can you tell if a bat is a store model or authentic?

With Louisville slugger, and Adirondack bats in short, if your bat has the size stamped into the knob it is a store model bat. This is placed there to help the buyer identify the size of the bat. Examples of this would be number like; 6, 06 036, 36, MM6, PR6. These marking will indicate a 36 inch bat. When letters proceed the number like MM6 or PR6 it is indicating the player model initials followed by the size, In this case MM6 Mickey Mantle 36 inch, and PR6 Pete Rose 36 inch. Game used, and Professional model bats are two different animals. A game used bat would have to come with the proper paper work, or a letter of provenance showing the chain of custody from the player that used the bat to the person that currently owns the bat. Without this you just have a pro model bat. It would otherwise be difficult to prove that the bat was actually used by the player. Adirondack Professional model bats will typically have the model number on the knob followed by a Letter. for example Hank Aaron used a 63 A, Mickey Mantle used a 288 D. Louisville slugger began using model numbers on the knob in 1943 then moving the model number to the barrel in 1977.


How long is Derek Jeter's baseball bat?

"A MLB bat can be no more than 42" in length. Jeter uses a 36" bat." That horseshit,Jeter doesn't swing a 36" bat. Hell i think the longest is Ryan Howard and i believe he swings a 36" bat. Nobody swings a 42". Jeter probably swings a 32 or 33. Not a 36" , that's a load of crap.
