Description: Outstanding Rookie-era Chipper Jones autographed professional model baseball bat c.1993-95 (PSA/DNA "GU 10"). Louisville Slugger model R161 bat with Jones' name block lettered in the barrel measures 35" long and weighs 32.2oz. Player number "10" is written on either end in marker (very faded on barrel end). Uncracked with outstanding use including ball contact and stitch marks covering all sides of the barrel. In addition there are rack streaks, streaks from contact with other bats, and a batting donut impression. Light coat of pine tar remains on the handle. Signed "Chipper Jones #10 '95" in marker rating 8 out of 10. Jones made his Major League debut as a late September call-up with the Braves in 1993 but would miss the 1994 season due to injury. In 1995 he became a regular on their roster and gave the baseball world a glimpse of the switch hitting power and fluid defensive skill that would make him a Hall of Famer. Jones was the face of Atlanta's franchise during their dominant run atop the National League for much of the 1990s and early 2000s. The offered is among the better Jones bats which we have offered with regard to dating period, use characteristics, and overall eye appeal. Includes auction LOA from JSA and LOA from PSA/DNA (graded "GU 10"): EXEstimated Price Range: ($3,000-$5,000)
