Gary Carter’s Adirondack/Rawlings Bat: A Charitable Treasure

An Iconic Piece of Baseball Memorabilia

In the realm of baseball memorabilia, few items capture the essence of the game like a bat associated with a legendary player. The Adirondack/Rawlings bat, model 113A, is a pristine example of such an artifact. Measuring 35 inches in length and weighing 33 ounces, this ash wood bat is a testament to the craftsmanship and history of the sport. Its labeling period, the 1988 National League Championship Series (NLCS), marks a significant era in baseball history.

A Signature of Excellence

Gary Carter, a Hall of Fame catcher known for his prowess on the field, has signed the front barrel of this bat in blue marker. The signature, in our opinion, rates a 7, adding a personal touch to this remarkable piece. The player number “8,” written in black marker on the knob, further authenticates its connection to Carter. The model number “113A GC” is stamped into the knob, indicating its readiness for game use, although it does not exhibit evidence of use.

Supporting a Noble Cause

This exceptional bat is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from PSA/DNA, as well as an LOA from the Carter Family. Additionally, an LOA from JSA for the signature is included, ensuring its authenticity. This lot is consigned directly from the Carter Family, with the noble intention of raising funds for their charity, The Gary Carter Foundation. The foundation is dedicated to enhancing the physical, mental, and spiritual well-being of children, with a primary focus on the Autism Project of Palm Beach County.
