Mickey Mantle's bat


One of the perks of being an intern at the BB Hall of Fame that even full-time employees do not get, is individual tours of the collections section of the museum. We request in advance what items we would like to see/touch/experience and they pull them out for us. The tours are one-on-one.

Here are photos of Rayna and me holding Mickey Mantle's used bat. You can see the location on the bat where he hit the most -- right on the sweet spot. There was also a crack in the bat. Not sure what the significance of the #401 stamped on the bat.
