19th Century Unused Ticket Stub – Questions . . .

Thanks Trevor & Joann, I am very happy with my latest acquisition. The Twitchell wasn't exactly just laying around, it will be off to SGC soon and added to my other Detroits

I follow everything you wrote Joann, thanks for the input. However, I still believe the tickets were for actual games played. As already noted, if they were for scheduled games, I believe the tickets would include date and team played. Other than the individuals who had season passes, I believe most tickets were purchased the day of the game, much like when you go to the movies. And for those with season pass books, the book itself was probably easily carried in a suit pocket so if the season pass holder was unsure of which ticket he/she would need, bring the whole book. But I have no proof, not yet anyways. Either way, I'm sure there were some confused fans from time to time.

If anyone has examples of other 19th Century tickets, post away. I'd love to see other examples to compare and contrast to. Thanks!

Best Regards,
