1989 Albert (Joey) Belle Cleveland Indians Cooper Professional Model Game Used Bat (MEARS LOA) "Bell" Misprint

We can only imagine the look on the face of notorious hot head Albert Belle when he cracked open the box containing his Cooper bat order only to find that they had misspelled his surname. Offered here is a professional model Cooper game used bat dating to early in Belle's career with the Cleveland Indians when he still went by his nickname Joey. Model C235 is screened on the barrel along with "Joey Bell" in script lettering while Belle's uniform number 36 is written on both ends. Bat currently measures 35.5", weighs 32 ounces and shows heavy use with ball marks, stitch marks, handle tape, a chipped knob and cracking. (71Y0249)
