I have a similar program though for New York rather than Brooklyn. It came with a ticket stub as well. Apparently the Yankees used up their supply of leftover 1950 programs during the 1951 preseason. The one that I have is from Mantle's first appearance in a Yankee program. I believe yours is also preseason 1951, and was likely one of the very first appearances of Mantle in a program with the Yankees.

Edit: Also Gene Markland was not in the Yankees system in 1950...he was in the A's system that year. He was in the Yankees system in 1951.
