Here is one of my favorites - Babe Ruth's three home runs in Game 4 of the 1928 Series. As a Cardinal collector, it's ironic to have a favorite item depicting a Yankee sweep, but I have plenty of tickets with better outcomes for the Redbirds. I collected cards as a kid but I caught the ticket collecting bug when I worked as a ticket taker at Busch Stadium in the 70's. One day I was working next to one of the old timers and things were a little slow - the Cardinals did not draw nearly as well then as they do now - and I mentioned collecting tickets. Astonishingly, the guy reaches into his wallet and gives me a stub from the '46 World Series. He said he always carried it around but thought I would appreciate it more. I still can't believe it.
I have at least one ticket from each Cardinal World Series and a stub from each St. Louis All Star game, but a full ticket from Stan the Man's final game is my personal favorite. Would love to find a stub from his first game. |
Beautiful Ruth 3 HR World Series ticket! It's really odd that in Ruths career he hit 3 HRs in a game 4 times total. Twice it happened in the World Series and the last time was when he hit his last 3 HRs of his career.
RTK- if you have your stub from the game it is actually a record. Most strikeouts over two consecutive starts 33. Richard-Thanks for the kind words . |

I do not really collect tickets, but I do pick up a few that I find interesting and at what I consider a good price.
Bob Hayes wins the 100m dash at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo. Still the only man to win an Olympic gold medal and a Super Bowl. (Michael Carter of the 49ers won a silver in shotput in 1984 and Super Bowl ring 5 month later) The United States wins the gold medal in basketball at the 1968 Olympics. The team features 2015 Basketball Hall of Famers Spencer Haywood and Jo Jo White along with future star Charlie Scott. Relative unknown Lindy Remigino of Hartford CT and Manhattan College wins the 100m dash at the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki. He barely made the U.S. team (by photofinish at the trials). He wins the finals in a photofinish in the closest 100m final in Olympic history. He wins by one inch. The final was so close that the 4th place finisher was only 14 inches behind. Joan Benoit wins the inaugural women's Olympic marathon. A challenging ticket to find as it is the only athletics final that started that early. All others were in the afternoon. Ticket to the memorial ceremony for the slain Israeli athletes and coaches at the 1972 Olympics. All athletic (track and field) events were cancelled that day. The 10 am admission ticket which would have been for preliminaries and heats was instead the admission ticket for the ceremony which was held in the Olympic Stadium. |

These are George Brett's last game tickets .... one in Kansas City the
other in Texas. The Arlington ticket is also the last game in Arlington Stadium and would be Nolan Ryan's last game in that Stadium. They are also signed :) |

Megalimey, what does your research show about dating Ladies Day "L" tickets? I have these tickets and thought they could be 1941, but do not know for sure. The L-4 ticket was taken from a scrapbook of 1941 (J) and 1942 (K) tickets. Written next to the ticket is "Russo v. Detroit". Russo pitched against Detroit on June 20, 1941 and won 14-4. It was a Friday and the fourth home Friday of the season. It was game 33 of DiMaggio streak and DiMaggio had 4 hits.

ladies day tickets
ladies day ticket were introduced in 1932 and ended in 1942
they are almost impossible to date by year unless there is some thing noted which could be fabricated however your 1941 J ticket game 29 is a Di Maggio Streak ticket for sure June 21st http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...94106210.shtml nice ticket and PSA will slab it as such you can even quote me on it |
nice ticket and it is from 1931 100%
the ticket you have is from 1931 and the Home Game #21 was scheduled to be played on June 9th but it was rained out to bad

1928 Game 3 Lou gehrig 2 HRs
1 Attachment(s)
i have a 1928 World Series Ticket Game 3 this is the game you see in the Movie where Gehrig hit two home runs
In the movie, Lou Gehrig hits two home runs and Babe Ruth hits one for "Little Billy" in the hospital. According to baseball-reference.com in the 1928 World Series Gehrig did not hit multiple home runs in any game that Ruth did homer. In game 3 against the St. Louis Cardinals Gehrig hit 2 home runs and Ruth none. In Game 4 Gehrig hit one and Ruth three. While the movie is not specific about the game being in the 1926 or 1928 World Series where both the Yanees and Cardinals met, there are two ways to tell it is 1928. One Gehrig did not homer in the '26 series. Two, the Yankees are celebrating a series victory later in the movie. The Yankees won the '28 series and lost in '26. Attachment 198914 |

I went through the pieces I pulled from the scrapbook I got these tickets from, and discovered this article/box score from this June 20, L-4 ticket, along with a cartoon image of Dimaggio depicting the streak.
Pretty cool to able to make a connection between some pieces I have had for a long time. I probably should have kept the scrapbook together years ago, but didn’t make the connection – you live and learn. I have been asking for years if there was any way to date some of these tickets and David’s article helped with the “J” ticket, and draw some connection to this “L” ticket. Attachment 198946 |
That's a great article. Thanks for sharing. Jason

Displaying Tickets
2 Attachment(s)
I just got these tickets which are now up on Ebay if anyone is interested, but I wanted to show how the previous owner displayed them.
(Mantle's only game at Shortstop, also Phila. A's 1st and last game of last year in existence.) http://www.ebay.com/itm/181841108029...84.m1555.l2649 I really like what he did, as you hopefully can see in the pix he has the ticket in a plastic holder, then that is placed into inserts on his page with it titled, then shows the season schedule with the game highlighted and also on the back the full box score from the game......just an idea for those who collect tickets and how to display them. |

Afternoon everyone...
My name is Andy and i am new here obviously...but not new to collecting. I collect Cleveland Indians items mostly. Ticket stubs or full in particular. Here are a few I myself have collected over the years. I am always searching for opening day ticket stubs, full unused tickets or other rare feats. So if you have any Indians ones I do have a list of what i am searching for. Thanks again for taking a look at my items. If i get a chance i will post some more that i think are pretty interesting. Cleveland Indians Ticket Collector Andy |
Very cool tickets Andy. What does the X signify on the stub?
|
Thanks Joe
I don't think it signifies anything specific. They are preprinted on the tickets. I could be wrong though. That is why I joined this forum. Seems like a lot of educated people here on tickets and memrobilia. Andy |

Hi Guys,
Terrific tickets! Here are my favorites - tickets from the 2004 ALCS Red Sox Yankees. As a Sox fan the tickets represent the end of years of frustration as a long suffering fan as the Sox overcame the 3-0 game deficit to stage the biggest comeback in baseball history against their hated rivals. I know they are not vintage pieces but they will always have a special place in my collection! 😀 |

Max Scherzer's no-hitter against the Mets at Citi Field, October 3, 2015.
First, an unsevered page of tickets from the 2015 New York Mets season ticket holders' ticket booklet, including tickets for the Mets games of October 2 and 3 v. Washington. https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5668/2...82617efc_c.jpg Next, a box office ticket from the Scherzer no-no. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/587/21...c71e087d_c.jpg Finally - a ticket to the October 3 game against the Nationals that was not for the no-hitter. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/619/22...04ac5bb2_c.jpg Here's the deal. The October 2nd game was rained out, and was rescheduled for the next day as a separate admission day-night doubleheader. So the Mets played the Nationals twice on October 3rd, and a ticket was required for each game. The rained out game was Game 79, as shown on the season tickets. The Scherzer no-hitter was Game 80. So collectors of tickets from no-hitters should make sure the 10/3 dated ticket they're being offered is marked Game 80. |

Bobo Holloman's last harrah
2 Attachment(s)
For those that don't know, St. Louis Browns RHP Bobo Holloman would likely be the poster boy for the most unlikely pitcher to ever hurl a no-hitter.
In 1953 he pitched briefly, mostly in a mop-up relief role for the Brownies. Prior to the 1953 ML season, Holloman injured his arm while pitching in the Puerto Rican league. In Puerto Rico Holloman had pitched very effectively and had been a standout on the Santurce squad. Not wanting to mess up his opportunity to pitch in the majors, Holloman downplayed the extent of his arm injury. Holloman made his ML debut on April 18th, 1953 pitching in relief of starting pitcher Don Larsen, of WS perfect game fame, who also debuted in the same game. Holloman, a flake but always self-assured, continually pleaded with Browns manager Marty Marion for the opportunity to start a game "to show him what he was capable of". On May 6th, 1953 Holloman finally succeeded in his quest. In his first starting assignment in the majors, Bobo Holloman pitched a no-hitter. He became the first and only player since Cincinnati Reds pitcher Bumpus Jones accomplished the same feat in 1892. By July of 1953 Bobo Holloman was traded to Toronto and never played another game in the major leagues. On June 21, 1953 Bobo won his 3rd and final career game against the Boston Red Sox in game 2 of a doubleheader. HOF'er Satchel Paige pitched in relief of Holloman and got his 7th save of the season. This is a ticket from this game. |

I have been looking for this stub for many years.
I acquired it after messaging the same person for over 3 years and always getting a not interested or not right now. He was finally willing to part with it after my persistence. I would email him every 6 months or so to see if he was willing to part. It is a ticket from the 1948 AL Playoff Game Which pitted my Indians vs the Boston Red Sox. This is a very hard ticket to obtain and i have never seen another one but i figured one had to exist...and now i own it. Couldnt be more excited! Andy |
