Congrats to all of the other collectors that have posted their pickups this month. Definitely some great ones!
I'm very happy to have added this nice example of the elusive printed date version of Sandy Koufax's 3rd no-hitter ticket on 6/3/64 at Philadelphia Phillies. This is an excellent compliment to the Type I original photo that I have from this same game. Many thanks to long-time hobby friend and Koufax collector Phil Paul that helped facilitate this pickup.

Great pickup Scott. Can you tell me how scarce the printed date type is compared to the others? Is this one to upgrade an existing non-dated version or is this a first for you?

Hi Mike,
Great questions! FYI, many Phillies tickets from this era are undated or have stamped dates. In my experience finding ANY dated ticket to this game is an extremely tough find, period, in spite of the fact that over 29,000 were in attendance that night. In terms of findability, Koufax's 3rd no-hitter is WAY tougher than any of his other 3 no-hitters at LA. LA collector's saved these tickets and virtually all of them had printed dates. By 1964 Koufax was a huge draw at the gate, wherever he pitched, reportedly adding about 10,000 additional fans to gate attendance. To put it in perspective, I have seen/heard of perhaps 8-10 tickets to this 3rd no-hitter game surfacing in the hobby in all the years that I have collected this theme (over 45 years). I suspect that about 7-8 are of this variety, but that's a guess. The purple stamped date ticket is a bleacher ticket from the left center field portion of the stadium that held about 5,000 fans and full capacity. I will tell you that I receive inquiries from collectors several times a year looking for a ticket to Koufax's 3rd no-hitter. It continually seems to be one that is on collector's want lists. This does indeed upgrade a stamped version of this ticket that I have in my collection, but I plan to hang onto it because of sentimental value. This cemented a great collecting friendship long ago with Koufax specialist and net54 board member Phil Paul. Additionally, the patron that owned this stamped date version ticket, Joseph Goldstein, was Jewish & obviously very proud of Sandy Koufax's triumph and his own ethnicity that night. So much so that he signed his own name on the back. So many great themes that I personally love as a collector, intersect with this particular example of this ticket...
