Having Thomas Shibe's signature on it, I don't think it's from 1929.
A few months ago there were two scrapbook pages of Athletics tickets sold on Ebay. One page had undated regular season tickets along with 1930 World Series tickets. Since they were displayed together, I'm assuming they were all from the same year and all were marked "C McGillicuddy, manager".
The second page had a similar group of tickets with 1931 World Series tickets. The regular season tickets on that page was a mix of McGillicuddy and Thomas Shibe examples which suggests that the first Thomas Shibe tickets are from 1931. The Shibe tickets also showed an increase in grandstand price from $1 to $1.10. Thomas Shibe was President of the Athletics until he died in early 1936 so I think your example dates between 1931 and 1935.
