Hey Wayne- the front you posted is a modern Houston Astros card

Yeah, I realized and fixed that. It also said "25 dollars paypal will ship it."

That is certainly not true of this ticket!

I have no opinion, but in reference to the writing on back, I thought it was referred to as the "World's" Series. Plural. But that's not to say that it wasnt written at a later date either. So ??

I have always wondered when the writing was added. It is quite old itself, and the date was written on the front, seemingly in the same hand/pen. It appears the creasing happened after the writing, so...?

I have the original Leland's catalog listing that states that only three were known. I know the HOF has one, and I've read about a full ticket that sold at auction in 2004.

Anyone know of any others?

Leland's has auctioned off at least two other (assuming this one wasn't written on/damaged since purchase) tickets:

So, if the Hall of Fame has one, that would make this one of at least 4.

I also found this link to a ticket from game 7, which would bring the number to at least 5.

I'm not sure PSA will authenticate it due to no date on the ticket or any identifying marks.
