Donald Bradman's first Test cricket bat sold at auction here late September 24, 2008 for a record $145,000 (121,938 US), the auction house said.
An Australian cricket bidder acquired the bat, which was signed by the country's greatest cricketer and the entire 1928-29 Test team and their English rivals.
"This is a record price for a cricket bat and there were several bidders, all of them within Australia, hoping to win the auction."
Bradman, who died in 2001 aged 92, is Australia's greatest sporting legend Test batting average of 99.94 some 60 years after his last match.
The bat sold at auction was used on Bradman's Test debut, during which he scored just 18 and 1 as Australia were thrashed by England. The English won the series 4-1.
