Are made of the finest straight grained, well seasoned, second growth Ash
Sticks. All timber must be seasoned at least two years, and free from
knots or imperfections. They are pronounced superior to anything, in the
way of a bat, ever brought out, both as to quality of timber, model and
finish. Special attention is called to the "Oriental Finish" put on these
bats which enables the batter to get a firm grip and renders the custom of
scraping the bat unnecessary. They are made from models of the actual bats
used by the most skillful batters in the League and Association. These
bats were used last year by all the prominent batters in the leading
Leagues and during the World's Series nine-tenths of the bats on the field
were WAGON TONGUE BRAND. Beware of cheap imitations, the only genuine
WAGON TONGUE BAT has our TRADEMARK; all others are counterfeits. These
bats are intended especially for Professional Players, and we urge Club
Managers to place their orders as early as possible, to insure a supply,
as the quantity made is necessarily limited.
PRICE TO CLUBS: Per Doz. $10.00. Each. $1.00.
