I have in my possession, a cricket bat that has been signed by quite a few cricket players from various teams, a lot of them actually played for England at some point, and knowing not much about cricket wondered what something like this could possibly be worth (probs not much), but purely out of curiosity, heres a couple of pics


The front of the bat is filled with Lancashire players of which I can only make one name out, and Northants, the rear Worcester. The names I have gathered so far
Lancashire:
Harry Pilling
Northants:
Colin Millburn
Wayne Larkins
Alan Hodson
Peter Willey
Worcs:
Norman Gifford
Glen Turner
Alan Ornroyd
John Parker
Imran Kahn
John Inchmore
Jim Yardley
Basil D'Oliveira

It looks as if they expected more people to sign the bat, then thought fuck it.

I'd imagine Imran Kahn and Basil D'Oliveira would be worth the most of the ones youve identified, but not sure how much

You might make more money if you cut all the signatures out and sell them all separately.

Nah different guy, David Lloyd is Bumble off Sky commentary.
Clive Lloyd is a big name too, was West Indies capatain when they dominated the late 70's/early 80's. Farokh Engineer played for India quite regular as well.
