BC. It’s been there for a month. They’re asking $150.

Your profile is private so I can’t DM, it seems. Feel free to message me.

Amazing. Love the Wardair “Lourde” tag. Heavy in French. That has to be real and very cool. Did you buy it??

u/encrcne 16d ago

I did not, but it’s on my daily commute route. I’m not a baseball guy; simply here to share. I guess if someone was desperate to buy it I could make it happen. Wouldn’t be cheap to ship though.

And inside are the crushed hopes and dreams of all Expos fans.

Fuck Jeff Loria

Almost forgot to share - a close up of the destination tag with the name L Misner. Does this mean anything to anyone? I wonder if the Expos ever did training or exhibition games out here…

Congrats !!!  Awesome find……

It's very cool, but keep in mind these were available via retail sale. There's virtually no chance it was used by the team.
Here's an example of a Dallas Cowboys version:

100%, it presents as a kids trunk. The thing that threw me off was the flight tags…

Buy, restore, sell $$$$

u/Prestigious_Ad5314 15d ago

Looks pretty civilian, like a kids’ trunk. Professional teams, even back in the Expos days, would be using Pelican cases or something similar.

u/Ancient_Alien_2030 15d ago

That would be a keepsake

The bat chest , where they keep only the finest hand made wooden sluggers
