I'll second what Jay said. I also love the ticket. Too cool!

This is really a terrific collection of Charlie Bennett items.
These would seemingly be some of the only known examples in the hobby due to their age and obscurity.

I wonder if there is some way to tell whose handwriting it is...

It looks like Chalmers Gaston Davidson was born in 1907, so he would have only been around 24 in 1931. I'll need to look deeper to see if there's any connection but have not seen anything just yet.

Charles Grant Davidson was a painter, but since he died in 1902 it seems unlikely it was for him.
It appears there were actually two artists named Charles Grant Davidson (seems odd...) and one died in 1945. I have looked for a connection to any of the players but have not found one yet...
