1921 World Series ticket stub

[smotan_02]

was curious if someone could help with authenticity and value of these stubs?

I'm not sure what to offer and I get nervous about reprints of early WS stubs.

Scotty,
Without seeing the back of these tickets, they appear to be genuine to me.

[smotan_02]

Scott- thanks for the reply. Here is the back.

Any thoughts on value? Thanks again.

[Scott Garner]

Scotty,
Definitely genuine now that I have seen the backs of the ticket. The larger ticket would be preferred over the smaller stub.
The stub is to game 3 of the 1921 WS as all 3 of the 1st games were played at NY that year. Nothing huge happened historically as you can see in the retrosheet.org box score below. No guess as to value as I don't collect post season tickets, per se.

Thanks Scott- I really do appreciate it. I'm curious how you know based on the back picture. I can usually tell through touch and smell- but haven't figured it out by picture alone yet....especially baseball.

[Scott Garner]

Scotty,
Everything looks to be the way it should.
Front, back, expected vintage feel.
No reason to fake this ticket because it doesn't represent anything hugely historic. All common sense stuff, really...
