Anyone have a Wrigley Field seating chart from the late 1960's and/or early 1970's that they could share (or point me to a link)?

I'm a ticket collector and have picked up a number of Cubs tickets from that time period but there's a slight wrinkle. These days seats at Wrigley are identified by aisle (then row/seat), and back in the 60's and 70's it was instead by section (then row/seat). The current-day aisle numbering scheme skips some numbers in sequence (e.g. 18, 20, 21, 23, 28 and 29 in the lower sections), and as luck would have it some of the tickets I have are in sections identified by those missing aisle numbers. Yes, the general seat location seems fairly intuitive, but I'd like to have a seating chart from that time period just to confirm.

Thanks in advance!

Once upon a time, before the Retrosheet website, I started collecting old issues of TSN (which I now want to sell, by the way) so that I could date my scored scorecard collection, using the box scores.

It sounds like you might need to start a Cubs yearbook or media guide collection, assuming that one of those contains a good seating chart for each year of issue.

I checked a few random years in my scorecard collection, and they don't have charts.

Have fun in your quest,
Doug
