Hi Mark,
To the best of my knowledge, I believe it is the White Stockings of the National Association.
From my research, The White Stockings began in 1871, but a fire burned down their original stadium in 1871. They re-entered the league in 1874 and I believe that this ticket originates from this season. On the back of the ticket it also makes reference to the Junior White Stockings and the the Resolutes, which may have played at their ball field as well.
I hope this helps.
