These have been coming in over the past couple of days, so I thought I would post as a group:
Top Left: Reds home scorecard. Much tougher to find that the World Series Programs. Both this scorecard and the full illustrated program were priced at .25 cents. I suspect they sold a lot less of these considering what you could get for the same money.
Top Right: World Series menu from the Netherland Plaza. Only the second one of these I have seen. The Netherland Plaza hosted the Tigers and other major league and media personnel. Interesting in that Ernie Lombardi is identified as Morris Arnovich.
Bottom Left: Bus pass for the final game of the season at Crosley Field. This was win #100 for the ball club. First time they hit that mark. Something they would not do again until 1970.
Bottom Right: Mailing envelop for 1940 World Series tickets. This one is post marked 15 September.
