This is why it's important for all of us collectors to try and document our collections. Where we got them and any history behind them if available. You got a great Robinson auto so you should be pretty darn jazzed about that and some ticket stubbs from the Cards/Dodgers during a championship year from one of the most famous Cardinal teams of all time. Sounds like a pretty good haul to me.

I have a tendency to go along with Mike's theory about the patron being confused when writing the inscription on the back of the tickets. No-hitter tickets are what I collect. The math definately won't work for these tickets to be from this game, but the inscription certainly appears to be with old ink. Great job on picking up the Jackie Robinson signed index card!
