Harvard BBC ticket questions
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi-
Scanned below is a Harvard BBC ticket that I recently acquired. After some quick research I have a few questions related to this item:
1. Is this a nineteenth century ticket? I ask because I googled the information on the ticket and found two on Ebay for very cheap prices (less than 10.00).
2. If it is a 19th century ticket did someone find 1000 of them in an attic?
3. If it is a fake/fantasy piece, was there an original that it was based on?
4. If it is from the 19th century, approximately what year was it issued?
Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Alan Elefson

Hi-
I thought I would give this thread a bump to see if anyone has any information regarding this ticket. I would love to know if it is 19th century (and a box load of them were found) or if it is a fake/fantasy piece.
Thanks in advance,
Alan

Alan- I've seen that ticket before, and I'm pretty sure I once had one, but have no idea if there was a hoard found. I would guess its value to be rather modest, not a real exciting item. As to the date, impossible to tell.

Thanks Barry! I just assumed a large hoard was found, given their low dollar amounts, but what you wrote concerning their limitied appeal makes sense as well. I do not care about value (as it will sit in my collection), just as long as it is nineteenth century.
Thanks again,
Alan
