I'm looking. The left definitely is pre 1950, but not sure about that H series.

The one on the left is most likely 1940.

One theory, noted in the PSA article on dating Yankees tickets, is that the Giants used the same printer and printing as the Yankees.

If that is true, then this would be 1940, based on the letter H and a few other factors.

Is the printer's name visible on the back? If so, does it read "The Devinne-Brown Corp"?

There is just generic info visible on the back of that ticket, no printing name.

For the one on the left, would the split "Base Ball" suggest earlier? '26 or '27 perhaps?

edited:...actually ignore that, the one on the right appears split too.

This group of tickets that sold on ebay might provide further evidence.

Polo Grounds Tickets
 
What do the prices listed on each ticket suggest about the range (19xx-19xx) as these changed over time. Establishing and then narrowing the actual range might be a good point of departure. This includes looking at price changes and when various taxes were applied.
