Title: Who manufactures Talisman cricket bats ?
Post by: kouservice on February 27, 2013, 09:43:08 PM
I searched on the internet but was not able to find who is the manufacturer of Talisman cricket bats. The closet search was a name of a irish guy named Mike Brimble ?

Mix between bats from Sussex from a well respected pod shaver and bats from AJ sports which were larsons. Most bats in fairness where from the former, when things started to go down hill you could have ended up with any old crap though. He even purchased ( still awaitif money for these :) ) some cheap Indian bats I got off eBay and labelled them up as his talisman bats.

To complete this topic, he was/is from the South West I believe.
As Silly stated, he used to sell some absolute blinders which were made by a top batmaker in the UK.
But things went pear-shaped and it looks like he started to source any half decent bats (and probably a number of less-than half decent bats?) and sell them as Talisman bats towards the end of his stint on here.
He then disappeared letting a number of people down badly and nobody seems to be sure of his where-abouts.
And that is the history of the Talisman brand in a paragraph!

Locking this topic.
