Mini Cricket Bats Are An Ideal Canvas For Autographs
With the current trend for celebrities being at its highest
, people love to meet their heroes; and sports stars have always been high on the list for people to meet. It is very common to ask a sporting star for their autograph and whilst fans used to be happy to get these autographs on pieces of paper, the collection industry has upped the scale on this recently. It is now very common to obtain a sports stars autograph on a piece of collectable equipment and when it comes to cricket stars, there is nowhere better to get an autograph than on mini cricket bats.Mini cricket bats are an ideal place to get these autographs as they are fantastic to look at and can be stored easily, even for a collector with a small amount of storage space. Trying to find space for a normal sized cricket bat may be tricky but the mini version can be easily placed in a case or hung to show off the autograph of your favourite player or star. There is no point in getting a cricket players autograph and then not displaying it and the more compact nature of the mini bat is ideal for displaying.
Another reason why mini cricket bats are seen as the best way to get an autograph is due to the inconvenience of carrying around a full-size cricket bat. If you meet a cricket player, it is likely you will be at a cricket game or perhaps some form of event or convention and it may be awkward to carry around a full sized cricket bat with you. Having the smaller scale version makes it easier to carry around with you on occasions and present it to your sporting hero to mark with their signature. The convenience factor is always going to be a major element in any decision but reducing the need to carry around a full-sized bat is going to be of benefit to everyone.
One of the reasons why mini cricket bats are so popular is that they are authentic scaled down replicas of the genuine cricket bats used by some of the games top players. This means if you have a favourite player, you could be able to get a mini bat that is based upon the brand and make they use in a game, and then get that player to sign it. If the style of bat matches with the players signature, the overall impression from the bat will be much higher than if it was just a standard smaller sized cricket bat.
Although the collectors market seems the most natural place for mini cricket bats, there is also the opportunity to have a mini game of cricket using the bat. Combining it with a soft mini ball allows for any small scale game to be played, even indoors, but of course, care will have to be taken if there is anything of value or note in the house. Whether it is youngsters developing a love for cricket or adults who should know better, there is a lot of fun to be had from using these smaller scale cricket bats.
