My grandparents lived in an apartment in Queens and my Granfather being originally from the Bronx was a die hard Yankee fan who went to almost every W.S game during their great run in the 1950,s(when you could walk up and buy a ticket for a W.S. game) and had in mint condition every program from 1949 to 1964 that they played in. He passed in 1990 and I traded them for a whole bunch of 50,s cards to a dealer at the National in New Jersey in the 90,s. My grandmother who passed in 2001 had about 200 playbill magazines dating from the 40,s from Broadway also in mint condition which my sister sold as a complete collection for about 115 K to a collector.

I've showed this once or twice before but it is perfect for this thread...
This was found in my grandmother's stuff. Her father was a HUGE Giants fan and wrote this letter home to his wife and baby (my grandmother's brother) after attending Game 1 of the 1923 World Series. Good thing he decided to send home the stub too! You can read more about it here - http://www.northjersey.com/news/Trea...the_attic.html

About 25 years ago, my uncle told me my grandmother had a shoebox full of cards in her attic. He said "find them, and they are yours". Needless to say, I found them. 52s through 59s. No Yankees - my uncle would trade them for Red Sox. Best find was a 60% complete 1959 set. Condition was amazing. Several SGC 88s and 92s in the group. Finished the set about 12 years ago (with the discovery of ebay).
