General use and some age/storage related wear is evident throughout and the there is a split to the surface along the lower edge (extending around 5" on an angle). The base was displayed for nearly (20) years in the Atlanta Braves team museum. Aaron's third inning home run off Hall of Fame pitcher Gaylord Perry made him just the third person in baseball history to reach the vaunted plateau of (600) home runs. He would continue his consistent level of play rising to become one of the most prolific sluggers in the history of the game and the all time home run leader. Unique and well sourced Aaron related game item of the highest desirability. Include small color photograph of the base on display at the Braves museum: EXEstimated Price Range: ($20,000-$40,000)
