Johnny Bench 125 Louisville Slugger Pro Model Bat 1980-83 Matches Bat Order Spec

Description

This Johnny Bench H&B 125 professional model bat dates to the 1980 to 1983 marking period and matches his bat order specifications for this period.  It measures 34 7/8" which indicates it is considered a 35" as the barrel end is cupped.  It weighs between 32 and 32 1/2 ounces.  It is a model B278 with the "Flame Burned" finish he almost always ordered.  The bat is in super condition with no damage except one dent on the back side of the barrel as the pictures will show. Very little sign of use other than possibly what might be rack marks near the end of the barrel. It is possible this one was given away to a fan before seeing any actual use. Still a GORGEOUS example of a Johnny Bench game bat and absolutely perfect for obtaining his autograph. Inquiries welcome.
