Day 81 – 22 March 2024
The Orioles use to do a great job with marketing their Season Tickets. Today, I am showing you 1954 Ticket Plan. The plan includes a schedule and the type of packages. There appears to be 5 Reserved Seat Plans ranging from 54 games to 15 games. Prices for those range from $108 to $30. Another plan includes 77 games either in the old Mezzanine / Field, other choice box seats or reserved seats. Those prices are a bit higher ranging from $185 - $125. I do not see a web site so it looks like you had to mail your request in with a check. I am also including a picture of a marketing document for Memorial Stadium. The document is probably from 1953 and it describes the work underway at Memorial Stadium. It describes the seating capacity for baseball at 51,750 (other events at 62,600) and could be enlarged to a capacity of 92,000. The stadium would have 200 foot candles for lighting over the entire playing surface, parking for 4,000 cars and an electric scoreboard. I really enjoy these old documents showing the start of our beloved Orioles.
