Vince Malta has been an avid collector of professional game used bats for over 15 years. His passion for collecting turned into an absolute obsession in his pursuit for knowledge in accurately authenticating the time period a bat was manufactured for a player. He is known by collectors as a person very willing to share his bat collecting knowledge and has been a great ambassador to the bat-collecting hobby. He co-authored the very first book exclusively devoted to collecting game used bats. This book has been relied on as a primary reference guide to countless collectors auction houses and baseball museums including the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown New York. Malta has been a bat authenticator for three years with Grey Flannel Auction House and has an impeccable reputation for consistently providing accurate unbiased expert opinions. |
