Along with Jackie Robinson, Gil Hodges, and Roy Campanella, Duke Snider helped the Brooklyn Dodgers become America’s team in the 1940s and 1950s. The eight-time All-Star was a fearsome hitter who was always a threat for 40 home runs and 100 RBI each season. In his career, the Hall of Fame outfielder hit 407 round trippers and over 2,000 hits. This Hillerich and Bradsby bat commemorates Snider’s 407 career home runs with black engraved text on the handle that reads “Commemorating 407 Lifetime Home Runs” and “Limited Edition – 1988/398 of 407”. “The Duke of Flatbush” signed the barrel of this bat in blue marker and this item comes with a COA from PSA/DNA (G17169).
