So I finally last week managed to get my hands on what for me is probably my favourite ever bat model released. The Newbery GT with the Cadbury purple stickers. Now I will admit a large reason for this is the stickers, iv always been a fan or the Newbery models from this time period including the Mjolner with the black Matt and yellow grip combo. Also though the high middle with a huge driving area and flat face just make this my favourite ever bat release.
So this one is the Player model and still hand the original retailers sticker wrapped round the grip with the original price of £204.99 ( How things have changed) for its age which I think this was released in 2011 it’s in superb condition with no damage ir even little sinks in the bat at all. Stickers are immaculate just a shame the original grip is looking worn but that’s to be expected. Its initial response is pretty decent but it’s debatable how often if at this will be used as iv started building a little collection of my favourite bats. Next on the list will be a 90’s V500 and V600 as loved watching Mark Butcher and Alec Stewart use them back in the day as well as a GN Maverick always loved the black & Orange combo.
Anyway for those that liked this model here are a few pics
