Lou Gehrig Signature Model Bat

There are many different models made for Lou Gehrig by Louisville Slugger. In order to put a value on your bat the model, the size, and the age of the bat will all be needed. The condition of the bat will also factor into a value. Decal bats will have higher value as well.

If the bat has the size on the knob it is an inch mark indicating that it is a store model bat. Inch mark is a term used with Baseball bats referring to the number stamped into the knob of the bat indicating the length on store model bats. Model number is not an inch mark. If the bat knob reads YB3 it Stands for Yogi Berra 33 inch bat. 3 or 33 could be used as well. A stamping like K55 would be a model number. Louisville slugger began using model numbers on the knob in 1943 then moving the model number to the barrel in 1977.

In general a Lou Gehrig 125 Louisville slugger store model bat is worth between $300.-$400. in excellent -near/mint condition, more or less depending on when the bat was made. Value can vary based on bat model, era made, size, and condition. Youth sizes and Little League bats will sell at about half the price stated above.

Baseball bats that were made during the players career, closest to the size and model will have a higher value. The dating of the bat is one of the most important factors on value along with condition. Hillerich & Bradsby Co. Louisville Slugger has used different oval center brands in their history. By identifying the center label, trademarks, and patens you can narrow down the year to what era the bat was made.
