I've been buying mixed paper lots for resale and a fair number of tickets have turned up.
I found one recently that was really interesting (to me, anyway), from the 9/24/32 Motion Picture Electrical Parade & Sports Pageant at the Olympic Stadium (as the Los Angeles Coliseum was once known). It was some sort of charity event but I haven't found anything about it.
I also found a 1932 Olympics Track and Field ticket from August 1, where Eddie Tolan and Ralph Metcalfe both tied the 100-meter world record in the final.
I even found some movie prop tickets, in a box with $40,000 in movie prop money. My heart skipped a beat until I took a closer look and realized that Albert Einstein is not on the $100 bill
