Join or Die

Crafted, wood-burned, and handpainted at their shop in Winona, Minnesota, Pillbox Bat Co. creates artisan quality baseball bats that are a true celebration of craftsmanship, sportsmanship, and classic vintage design. Their 34" bats are constructed from solid ash wood, and emblazoned with the Pillbox Bat Co. mark just above the grip. Hang it on the wall, or lather up the pine tar and put it to use in a pickup game with the folks around the block.

The Join or Die baseball bat is wood-burned or "tattooed" by hand with the segmented snake first introduced by Benjamin Franklin (yes that Benjamin Franklin) and then painted. This illustration has served in many rallying cries for unity and freedom over the centuries and is a central part of American lore.

The "Classic" model is a modern day throwback. It's inspired by bats from the early 1900s with a slightly thicker handle and a slow taper through the barrel, with a modern, entirely Pillbox flare at each end making a stunning bat with both vintage sensibilities and impeccable design.

The "Mushroom" model" was also a very popular model in the early 1900s, but the knob at the end is meant to counterbalance the barrel, producing a more balanced bat, and a more vintage look.
