Jersey relics in sports cards are cool, but the ones with bat knobs are cooler.
Also known as bat barrel relic cards, these unique sports cards feature a piece of a player’s bat embedded into the card. This piece, commonly referred to as the “knob” of the bat, is cut off and placed into the card, allowing collectors to see the actual piece of wood used by their favorite players.
This game-used memorabilia on the card adds a level of authenticity and uniqueness that sets it apart from traditional sports cards. It also provides collectors with the opportunity to own a piece of history.
Here’s some of the ones currently available on eBay that we like best.
