I have collected many tickets and stubs from games in which Sandy Koufax pitched (including all of the World Series and All Star games). I have never sent any in for authentication, but I bought a few that were already slabbed - really didn't impact my assessment of value. The slabs make it difficult for me to keep them they way I do most of my stubs - in penny sleeves taped to a page with a NYTimes article about the game with the box score. You can see how I keep my no-hitter/perfect game stubs, and how the slabs look compared to a random page that I flipped to. (I guess the SGC stub is nice to be slabbed as it references the Oldtimer's game and those are not easily checked on retrosheet.)
