The attendee in 1919 may have retained a keepsake, but his kid probably saw an old dusty scrapbook as junk and threw it out. I keep a ticket stub from the 1976 series and wouldn't sell it because every time I see it I recall going to the game with my father; after I'm dead I expect my kid will sell it just like the rest of my memorabilia and cards. It doesn't have any emotional resonance to her. 40-50 years ago, when the stuff was worthless, I'm sure the kids just junked the items.
