I love ticket displays! I used to watch the catalog auctions and saw people selling sets of tickets and the prices weren't doing so well. I thought, "why are these prices so low?" My theory was that if you buy a set of tickets what do you do with them? They are in top loaders and you can't hang them on the wall. So In 2000 I made my first display (500 homerun club) to sell at auction. It wasn't real fancy but I sold it for around $5000 ! Way higher then the stubs would have sold for by themselves. I made several since then... these are NOT the actual 500th homerun stubs but a single homerun by that player.

Not to derail the conversation but, does anyone have a 1939 or 1941 Dodgers Opening Day preferably unused but a stub will work as well. Thanks

Great work Randall. Those look really good. Do you do them yourself or take them to a frame shop? what does the cost typically run you?

Lastly, I frame my tickets and programs with UV glass. I bought cheap frames from Walmart, but went to the frame shop and bought about 10 panes of UV glass cut to 8x10. I've seen some great displays ruin the ticket or program because the sunlight demolished the color. Amazing how fast it can happen too.
