John Havlicek Signed Playoff Ticket Stub

[aelefson]

Hi-

I acquired the John Havlicek signed playoff ticket scanned below and I am trying to figure out what year it is from. It is a Philadelphia 76ers ticket for a game 6. The Celtics played the 76ers in a game 6 in 1965 in Philadelphia but I figured my ticket is newer than that. Any ideas? Maybe it is not from a Celtics series for whatever reason.

Thank you in advance,
Alan

The Spectrum was opened in September 1967. This ticket is probably from April 11, 1968. Philly beats the Celtics 122-114 at the Spectrum. This was the 6th playoff game in Philly. They played 4 home games against the Knicks in the Eastern Division Semis - March 22, March 27, March 31 and April 1. The first game of the Eastern Division Finals against the Celtics at home was April 5. The Celtics won that game 127-118,

Glad to help. It was made easier by using Basketballreference.com which is very accurate.

Game 5 April 15 I think. 76ers home 1,3,5 and same for the next series. Then they lost home game 7.

Thought stubs looke familiar. These are from games 4-5-6-7. Same ad on back. 1968 I believe.
