Biographical/Historical Info
Hillerich & Bradsby Co.

'Hillerich & Bradsby Company (H&B) is a company located in Louisville, Kentucky that produces the Louisville Slugger baseball bat. J. F. Hillerich opened his woodworking shop in Louisville in 1855. The bats were sold under the name "Falls City Slugger" until Bud Hillerich took over his father's company in 1894, and the name "Louisville Slugger" was registered with the US Patent Office. Frank Bradsby, a salesman, became a partner in 1916, and the company's name changed to "The Hillerich and Bradsby Co."' -- Wikipedia'
