In general an Ed Mathews store model bat is worth about $80. -$110. in excellent condition. A bat in unused mint condition will sell for more. There are many other factors besides condition, on putting a value on your bat.

Size, brand, age, and if it is a store model, or pro model bat will or factor into value. The size, and model number closest to the bat the player used will be of the most value. Little league bats will sell for less. A Louisville Slugger would be of the highest value.

Hillerich & Bradsby Co. Louisville Slugger has used different oval center brands in their history. By identifying the center label, trade marks, and patens you can narrow down the year to what era the bat was made. Visit the Louisville Slugger bat dating guide below (Related Links). You can match the markings on your bat with the easy to use bat dating chart to get an approximate date for your Louisville Slugger bat. I will also leave a link to a Adirondack bat dating guide.

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, EM6. These marking will indicate a 36 inch bat. When letters proceed the number like EM6 it is indicating the player model initials followed by the size, In this case EM6 Eddie Mathews 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. For example a K55 Mickey Mantle pro model would have K55 on the knob as opposed to the store model bat with K55 appearing on the barrel.
