I have inherited a cricket bat made for Jack Hobbs and signed by at least 30 players including Hobbs and Donald Bradman. All signatures are in fountain pen. Can someone help me out as to where I might be able to see what its worth? Thanks.....Pete

I"ve found out the entire England team, South African team, and most of the Australian team signed this bat during the 1955 when England played South Africa when both teams toured Australia. Im going to try to upload pictures for everyone to see. Thanks.....Pete

Here is the link to the pics for this bat. Thanks again.... Pete

I understand that. i do have no paperwork on this item. Signatures look about 50 years old though.

A website where sneaky advertising isn't permitted?

You'd be crazy to sell it unless you had some dire financial difficulties. I'd be buried with it if it was mine.

post your pictures as attachments to this thread so that we can see the quality of the bat and the signatures, also can you get a close up of the Don's signature.

..... and by, I don't think, coincidence, this has just gone up on ebay - seven days time and we'll know the value of Pete's bat

Awesome man awesome!

If it is [ It looks good ] genuine then believe me you can fetch a good amount of this bat.

Ask your uncle if he is interested in selling it with the original grip?
