I got an email from this gu bat site
and i figured i would pass it along encase
anyone found it
It recently sold at the Hunt Auction live
event at the AS Game for 42k. Mel Ott died in 1956
and his stuff is considered the hardest to find for GU set
collectors of the 500 HR club. John Taube is one of the leading authenticators for PSA/DNA.
He specializes in authenticating GU bats. he has a booth at many shows in the tri state area with his main office in Margate NJ.My 98 & 99 GU Mac Bats were authenticated by him and his teamat PSA/DNA. i also am on his email list for when he comes across new inventory.
Here is the email:
I received a phone call this morning from John Taube. He alerted me that a 1930s H&B Mel Ott game used bat was stolen from their booth at the national yesterday. The bat that was stolen is the bat that was recently sold through Hunt Auctions at the MLB All Star Game event.

If you see the bat for sale either in person or online please alert John Taube either by email ([email protected]) or by calling his office (609-487-8003). You can also contact me by email ([email protected]) or by phone (715-279-1242
If anyone is well versed in terms off acountability issues,
is his booth responsible for reimbursing the owner
who paid 42,000$ for the bat?
