I found this bat in an op-shop at Streaky Bay a few years ago and oiled it up etc.

Any ideas about how old it might be? It's a long-handle Gunn and Moore Non-Jar. The label has been pressed into the bat.

It looks like security for your drug lab going by the picture.

Send an email to G&M and they will be able to give you details.

I just did a google search of Gunn & Moore Non-Jar

and got this GM Non Jar (scroll down to the Museum section)

it was even considered an antique in 1984 :shock:
