Help dating a NY Giants BB Ticket
 
2 Attachment(s)
Ok, I know these are next to impossible to date- but, I figured I would give it a shot.

What I do know is that it is a NY Giants ticket with Horace C. Stoneham as the president. That puts the start date at 1936. It is also the 30th Home game (thanks Jeff!). That's all I got.

Anyone else got an idea?

Giant Ticket is 1936 or 1937
 
Google search DeVinne-Brown.

DeVinne-Brown merged in February 1938 and became MB Brown publishers after that date.

This would place the ticket in the 1936 or 1937 season.

Hope this helps.

Devine Brown was the hooker arrested with Hugh Grant in Hollywood in 1995.

That does, thank you!

On a separate note- When I was a cadet at West Point, the entire corps would eat lunch together. During these lunches the senior cadets could control when and how much the freshman cadets could eat. They devised a game where we would ask trivia questions, and then the upperclass cadets would try and answer. While they were thinking up an answer, the freshman could chow down. Too easy question and they answered immediately, too hard and they would yell "impossible trivia, next question!". They key was to find that question that everyone knew they knew, but couldnt quite remember. One day I asked "What was the name of the hooker that got Hugh Grant arrested?" It stumped the table the whole meal as they just couldnt quite get the name and us freshman ate in peace.

When I read that name at the bottom of the ticket, I smiled. Guess it also shows how young I am.

I have a NY Giants BB ticket where the publisher is listed as ARCUS- SIMPLEX-BROWN also with a Stoneham signature. Looking for possible years? Game 32. Anyone have info?
