1977 Joe Morgan All-Star Game professional model baseball...

1977 Joe Morgan All-Star Game professional model baseball bat (Leadoff Home Run)(PSA/DNA GU 9.5). Joe Morgan stepped to the plate in the 1977 MLB All-Star Game as a reigning back to back NL MVP Award recipient and World Champion. Appropriately, he belted the first pitch from AL starting pitcher Jim Palmer into the right field seats for a leadoff home run. Morgan was just one of only six players to have hit leadoff home runs in the history of the MLB All-Star Game. Offered is Morgan's professional model bat as issued for the 1977 All-Star Game measuring 34 1/2" long and weighing 31.1 ounces. Louisville Slugger 125 model bat displays special "1977 All Star Game" and " New York, NY" stampings on the barrel with model S44 on the knob end along with "8" written in vintage green marker. The bat shows appropriate light use for an All-Star Game participant to include grain swelling and a few ball marks along with several cleat mark impressions. While we are not able to definitively attribute the bat to the home run through photographic comparison this bat was displayed within Morgan's collection housed in a custom shadowbox display having engraved brass placards "Led-Off Home Run" and "All-Star Game July 19, 1977". The display case is included with the bat and noting that two very tiny screw holes are found in the back of the bat for mounting in the case which have been left as is for that purpose if so desired). Very desirable All-Star game bat with relation to one of the more memorable home runs of the 1970s era. Includes LOA from PSA/DNA (GU 9.5) and letter of provenance from Theresa Morgan: EX
