Very nice looking item, but difficult to guage the value.

I would be pretty shocked to have any of the people on the board produce an entire season ticket book from 1909. These have to be extremely rare because I've never seen one in over 35 years.

The dealer is selling as a BIN or best offer. If you like it take a swing at landing it. Good luck!!

I would think that asking price is a bit high but that is a pretty cool piece. I would offer him 400 bucks and see what he says since he is entertaining offers.

The description is slightly wrong - that is a photo of the 1907 team, not the 1908 team.

I'd also like to clarify that this is not a ticket, per se, as it would not gain you entrance to a game. This is the second page from a Cubs season ticket book. The actual tickets used to get into individual games followed this page in the season ticket holder's book.

Look at these photos from my 1917 Cubs season ticket book for comparison purposes. I hope you find this helpful!

Here is the entire book from a Leland's auction. There was also a page similar to the auction or the same one that wasn't graded in an early Mastro auction.
