Description

Item: Genuine Rece Hinds — Powerized Birch wood bat, S2 model. Markings visible on the barrel read “Genuine S2 / Rece Hinds / POWERIZED BIRCH.” Photos show the exact bat included in this lot.

Condition: Poor / Salvage — heavy game use. This bat exhibits extensive contact wear including deep barrel scuffs, finished paint loss, long splits and delamination along the barrel/handle, and heavy handle/knob wear. Grip tape remains in place but the bat shows significant structural damage (see photos). This is a game-used, as-is piece suitable for display, restoration, or parts — not suitable for play. Display stand shown in some promotional photos is NOT included.

Provenance: Bat bears factory S2 stamping and visible production/endcap markings (see photos). Wear patterns and multiple impact marks are consistent with on-field game use. All listing photos are of the actual bat included in this lot.
