Peter Schyuff Hits a Home Run in the Art World
Alex Scott — January 25, 2010 — Lifestyle
They sure did not have Peter Schuyff baseball bats like these when I was playing little league baseball, and if they did, I’m sure the team would have been bankrupt by mid season after depleting the replacement baseball bat fund. But alas, these stylish pieces of sports garb aren’t hanging in some equipment shed for a pee wee league, they are on display in art galleries where they are awed and admired as they should be, rather than being thrown into the dugouts.
The Peter Schuyff baseball bats have enough intricate detail and design to leave you scratching your head for days wondering how they were made. Just don’t try to hit anything harder than a wiffel ball with them.
