Default SOLD Rare 1965 Mickey Mantle Ticket Stub 1st Home Run Astrodome

Granted she ain't pretty, but she is pretty rare. PSA has only 5 graded, compared to about 90 Babe Ruth Called Shot Tickets.

That tape residue is not coming off, but again neat to own something rare that not many others have, and you'll never find a cheaper alternative, this be it!

Also, might look better in a PSA holder.

The date was April 9, 1965.

The place was the Houston Astrodome (the proclaimed Eighth Wonder of the World).

47,876 excited fans jammed into the Astrodome to watch the fist indoor major league baseball game as the Houston Astros took on Mickey Mantle and the New York Yankees. Yankee manager Johnny Keane gave Mickey Mantle the honor of being the first batter in the game.

In addition to being the first batter, Mickey also had the first hit (single) and the first home run ever hit indoors in a game between two major league teams.

The Astros won the game 2-1 in 11 innings on a two out single by pinch hitter Nellie Fox.

Watch the game on Youtube:

I've seen these go from about $200 to $1500
