Hi J.R.,

Wecome to net54! I'm a vintage ticket guy. I looked carefully at condition, potential noteworthy events and attendance to give you a estimate of value.

Comments: O/D 1945 was obviously wartime and the majority of all good players were fulfilling their military hitches. As such, neither the Yankees or the Red Sox fielded a team with any much collecting interest. Approximately 14,000 were in attendance which was a decent size crowd for 1945, thus this ticket is not supremely rare. Condition of the ticket would be G-VG at best based on your scan. Potential value = $25-$40 probably best case scenario. The only collector that would care about this ticket would be a Red Sox die hard fan or an Opening Day ticket collector.

I hope this helps!
