Hillerich & Bradsby 140S Bat

Hello and a question regarding a Hillerich & Bradsby 140S Bat-

This one is a Jackie Robinson- Special Power Drive and then Jackie Robinson's name appears below Power Drive - in upper case- it is not a signature

The bat is a 34- it has the 4 on it

Am I right in assuming this is a later bat - likely from the early to mid 1960s?

Any comments as to dating it would be appreciated

    I am by no means a bat expert but did they really make 34 inch long bats for kids? Just curious.

    I meant the bat was sold/manufactured for non professional use (high School, sandlot, little league, whatever)

    better?

    One more question then. Since a 34 inch bat can be considered a kids and an adults bat what is the weight range of a little league 34 inch bat? I always thought I was using an adults bat when I used a 34 inch in HS.
