Lots of nice tickets in this thread.

My current online auction ends tomorrow and I usually don't have much in tickets. However this one has a few including a 1959 World Series and a pair of signed 1988 Tom Browning Perfect game signed tickets.

Cool stuff, everyone!

Thought I posted this, but maybe didn't.

I don't have many impressive stubs left, but I do have about 300,000 season ticket sheets and stubs from the past decade for various college football, NFL, MLB and NBA teams. My most significant stub (that I am aware of) is an Angels v Mariners stub of Mike Trout's first game. I had 4 of them, sold off 3 for about $1100 each. Not bad considering the Angels season tickets that year were under $500/ea. Maybe the rest will be worth something in 40 years. LOL

Photographer's ticket for the Opening Ceremony of the 2022 Olympics. Along with collecting Olympic photography I also collect items related to the photographers, including credentials, vests, badges and patches. Unlike pro sports the photographers need tickets along with their credentials at the Olympics. This prevents too many photographers from attending events since their shooting areas are usually defined. The oldest photographer identified tickets I have and have seen are 1948 London. Prior to that there are press tickets or no defined tickets. Some of the games after 1948 did not have photo identified tickets. 1972 Munich and 1976 Innsbruck used press tickets. 1996 Atlanta used 'Accreditation Required' tickets.

Joel Youngblood had a mostly undistinguished 14-year MLB career, though on August 4th 1982 he laid claim to one of the more quirky feats in baseball history.
On Aug. 4, 1982, Youngblood became the only player ever to get a hit for two teams, in two cities, on the same day.
Youngblood began the day as a member of the Mets, who played a day game against the Cubs at Wrigley Field in Chicago. In that game, Youngblood went 1-for-2 with two RBIs in a 7-4 Mets win. After the game, he was traded to the Expos, who played that night against the Phillies in Philadelphia. In that game, Youngblood singled as a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning of a 5-4 Phillies win. Two hits, for two teams, in two cities, on the same day.
That's impressive enough. But even more impressive is that both hits came off eventual Hall of Famers: Ferguson Jenkins in Chicago and Steve Carlton in Philadelphia.
Not a bad day at the office(s).

That's the kind of baseball history I love to collect. It would have been even cooler if he would have been on the winning side of both games.

I do Jay! Did I buy it from you, or sell it to you? That was about 12 years ago.

1915 Newark Peppers Opening Day ticket

My dad took me to the game when Willie got his 3000th hit when I was seven years old. He gave me the tickets (and a cool Willie Mays portrait he probably bought at the game) about 10 years ago shortly before he died. My son was a rabid baseball fan (and little leaguer) and I promised him the tickets to go with a Sports Illustrated cover he bought of Willie's 3000th hit (signed). Well, I lost the tickets and then moved homes and never really expected to see them again. My wife and I finally got around to cleaning the garage this week (after living in our new home 3 years) and look what we found!

Thanks! It was quite a thrill to find these bad boys! I'd done a LOT of looking at our previous home with no luck, so this was a big surprise.

Group,

I am on a quest to find a number of Frank Howard home run game tickets. I have found some but I just do not know many places that I can search for ones I am missing. Can you help a collector out and drop a few websites in my lap to help in my search?

Greatly appreciated if you can and will.

Regards,

Butch

I have some LA Dodger stubs from the early 60's. Do you have a list of games? I would be happy to look thru them and see if I have any for you.
