Finding information on an autographed bat... Need Help

Ok, so I picked up a huge lot off a local guy. In this lot I got some great cards and some nice memorabilia besides.
My question is, I got a bat from him that is signed by 5 members of the 500HR Club. It is hand numbered 60/200. It's a Hank Aaron player model Adirondack bat (not game used). The bat is signed by Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Harmon Killebrew, Frank Robinson and Reggie Jackson. He purchased it back in the 90's sometime and didn't know if he had a coa for it or not. The autos all look legit and the bat is in great shape, and as I stated, hand numbered out of 200. Anyone know of any resources to try and find out where/when this bat was signed? Who would have put it out? I am thinking its plausible that since the bat is a Hank Aaron player model and signed by him that maybe the person who had it decided to turn it into a 500HR bat and just never got around to getting the other players on it. Otherwise the only other explanation is that they all signed it at once for some event/show/HSC or something... I don't have a pic yet, but I'll post one tonight if anyone is interested in seeing it. It is absolutely gorgeous.
Here are some pics of the bat...
