1920s Glenn Wright Game Used Bat & Photo
Attach the face to the wood in this dazzling pairing of a vintage 1925 photo of Pirates shortstop Glenn Wright and the caramel beauty he hit with before the handle was cracked. Wright was a career .294 hitter with some pop, which explains the dents and other markings from heavy game use. The bathead displays his elegantly carved signature, which would look right at home on a historical document. The handle was flared, chic for the time. Nails were driven into the fissure on the handle, perhaps for display purposes. The VG-EX 6 by 8-inch black and white captures a slightly grinning Wright in front of the dugout. As the typed caption on the back reads, the picture was used with a story about a May 7, 1925 game in which he completed an unassisted triple play against the Cardinals. Editor's notations are also on the reverse.
