La Tropical Beer Wooden Pencil Baseball Bat

[keithker]

Its hard finding much in any Florida breweriana pieces and maybe because I was lucky enough to squint and read the printing on the bat I was able to score this piece. I was searching for baseball and beer related items for an upcoming display when I happened upon it. Luckily not a word of La Tropical beer was mentioned in the posting.

Florida Brewery Tampa had a La Tropical Beer baseball and basketball team.

Here are a few articles from 1934-1935 so the bat is likely from that time frame.

That's a lucky find. What are the odds that you would see that considering it was not mentioned in the text? Definitely a good day for you.

Someone should say Keith hit a home run.... I'm not gonna say it but that's because of my Punphobia....
