About Collectible Baseball Bats

In the early days of baseball, bats were made by players in all shapes and sizes. That changed in 1884 with the creation of the Louisville Slugger, made from hard white ash. The Slugger's legacy was cemented in 1900 when Honus Wagner was paid to have his signature burned into the bats, which soon became a baseball tradition.
