Absolutely stunning Louisville Slugger Harmon Killebrew signature model S207 bat used by "Killer" to hit the 499th Home Run of his illustrious career. This bat is truly a special one of a kind piece sourced from Harmon Killebrew himself and personally signed, "I Hit HR#499 July 25, 1971 off Luis Tiant & Boston Red Sox, Metropolitan Stadium Minnesota with the bat! Harmon Killebrew." The bat is also accompanied by a Letter of Provenance from Killebrew confirming that this bat was acquired by his agent of nearly 30 years. The letter is signed by both the agent and Killebrew. The bat itself measures 35 inches, weighs 32 ounces, and shows exceptional use with ball marks, cleat marks, ball stitch impressions and has heavy pine tar. The bat remarkably remains uncracked and has a faded #3 on the knob in black marker. Truly the finest Harmon Killebrew bat in existence that does not reside in the Hall of Fame.
