Anyone heard of a Waner/Collins/Speaker… 3k hit ticket

[Scott Garner]

Jeff,
I have never seen a full ticket to Brock's 3,000th hit, but I feel certain that one must exist.
BTW, your ticket stub is the audit stub, meaning that it is the portion that the ticket taker would hold on to, not the patron (fan). The opposite end of the ticket would be the more desirable of the two given a choice, but both are very collectible, never the less...

Thought maybe someone may have an interest, so I am posting what I have cataloged of Pete Rose 3000th hit tickets and photos of the four that I own. Hope someone else can add information to this topic.

I have always thought that the weighting for the Clemente 3,000 hit ticketsis way out of line. There are many of them out there. The Kaline is a super hard ticket to find.

I have a number of 3,000 hit tickets in my collection for sale if interested. Banks being one of them. Some full and some stubs. I know where one Speaker 3,000 hit ticket is, but it is not PSA graded and PSA won't grade the ticket either. Kind of a bummer.

Nice Mays 3,000th hit Jason!
Can you also please show your Mays 500th HR ticket stub?

[Streetsideguy]

Ask and you shall receive.

Cool Mays 500th HR ticket, Jason! Thanks.

That's the only one that I've ever seen. It's an elusive bugger for those that collect the 500 HR theme.

If you are talking about Ernie Banks I am sorry to inform you he did not get near 3000 hits. He finished with 2583 hits.

My mistake. My Banks ticket is the 500 HR ticket, not a 3,000 hit ticket.

Great information and great thread!

Question for Randall (mcgwirecom),

How reliable do you believe PSA to be on early undated tickets. The Walter Johnson 3,000th you show is from game 57. I am skeptical of this. If I go to a site like Baseball Reference and count down to the 57th home game played, I find this to have been on July 22nd, which is what they date the ticket as. To me, the scheduled date and played date are not necessarily the same date. I decided to put this to the test with the 1920 Pirates.

I have an original Cincinnati away schedule from 1920.
They were to play in Pitt
April 29, 30 - April 30 not played
May 1
June 3, 4, 5 - none of these played
July 5 (DH), 6
Oct 1,2 - Oct 1 not played, but a triple header was played on the 2nd

Games played: (http://www.baseball-reference.com/te...e-scores.shtml)
Games played, that are not on schedule are:
DH on Sept 22
23
So with the 2 make up games played in the triple header, 5 games played on dates not listed on original schedule, thus throwing off the game count. Could you imagine sitting through a triple header in Pittsburgh in October. Interestingly, from doing this little research project, this was the last tripleheader ever played (http://research.sabr.org/journals/last-tripleheader).

The only way, I believe, really to verify the game number is to get a 1923 schedule from a Cleveland newspaper (probably the day before Opening Day) from a Cleveland library or something. Not sure if anyone lives in Cleveland and hangs out at the library, but...
