May 26, 1935 Babe Ruth Ticket Stub

[Shoeless Moe]

I've been watching Ebay for many years and been looking for tickets stubs for Babe Ruth's final games to no avail.

When 2 finally came up for his 3-Homer Game vs the Pirates at Forbes Field, one April 2009 at Memory Lane Auctions ($5795) and 2nd one more recently at SCP Auctions November 2011
($5251), they went for astronomical prices and were well out of my range.

After Ruth's 3 Homer game on that Saturday in May of '35, he and the Braves went to Cincy for a couple, and then he hung it up in Philadelphia.

I contiuned looking hoping one would come up on Ebay, knowing anything after the 3 homer game would be significantly cheaper, well finally got one.

I then seached many auction houses and can't find one from that Sunday May
26th game or any from after that, as Ruth would retire from baseball 4 days later. So while I'm sure they are out there somewhere I for now believe this to be one of the only tickets from the final games of the Bambino. If any one has one please share it.

There is a great story from this May 26th game that was in Sports Illustrated:
