The $1.10 grandstand ticket (front and back) is from the '30's with "Thomas Shibe, President" printed on it. Thomas Shibe died in 1936.
Very cool info and neat tickets! I like the $1 and $1.10 examples with the advertisements on the back, will have to keep an eye out for one.

Thanks for the details, very insightful
