Ticket value
Hi Dynarl,
Ticket value is realistically driven by age, condition and the significance of the actual event itself. A game that Babe Ruth hit a HR in, or Cy Young pitched would significantly up the value of a ticket.
Looking at this specific game:
1) The tickets themselves are in OK shape, exhibiting minor creasing and staining on the front. Without seeing a scan of the back I cant take this into consideration to help determine value.
2) The fact that this ticket is dated and is from the 1920's is a plus
3) The event itself does not have any special significance that would appear to drive value. "Bullet" Joe Bush did get the win, but I suspect that not many collectors would care a lot about this. FYI, Bullet Joe did pitch a no-hitter in his career.
4) If that photo is to the same game, which I believe it is, this would make the pairing more interesting because it gives you a snapshot of the actual event.
I suspect that (1) ticket itself might be worth $35- $50 at the most assuming the back of the ticket does not exhibit paper loss. With the snapshot it might bring $75 or more.
I hope you find this helpful...
