Hi David,
It's very easy to do.
The second section at the top left (just to the right of the icon that says net54 Homepage) is the Buy/Sell/Trade Section. Click on that and scroll down to the BST section for Memorabilia. Post your items for sale there.
BTW, your blue Giants ticket in your earlier post is from 1916.
Scott

1889 Detroit Wolverine Ticket Book (Champions of the International Association)

Obtained this book a couple months ago. One ticket in book and showing one of five loose tickets. I know of at least one more loose ticket (all belonging to this book).

The book was issued to Mr. Howard and is signed by both President Mills and Manager/Secretary Leadley. It is a nice companion piece to several Robert Leadley letters I obtained from Rhys Yeakley dating to this time (the letters chronical an attempt to gain the services of Bob Allen to play for Detroit).

On a side note, the tickets are much smaller than what was issued to the National League Detroit team the year prior.

Cool pickup Joe!

Wow! That 1889 Detroit Wolverine Ticket Book is great.

Just picked these two up off of ebay...
They both had glue on them and paper from being in a scrapbook...But with a little water and some cleaning the backing came off and they are in good shape...

This is one aspect of my collecting that I would love to get into. The problem with tix from the 90's I have found is that a lot of times the ink printed on the tickets either fade or are rubbed off. I wonder if tix from the 80's face this problem.

Thanks, Paul. I look forward to adding examples from 52, 53, 55, and 56. Then figure out how I want to display them.

Here's a sad example of a ticket whose ink has faded over time. This stub from the June 4, 2000 New York Mets v. the Tampa Bay Devil Rays game at Shea Stadium was sold at an "ETM" ticket kiosk in the Roosevelt Field Mall, Garden City, New York. It's particularly sad because ETM ticket kiosks didn't last very long, so stubs from those machines are, I'd guess, particularly rare.

As faint as the printing is, it's much more legible on this enhanced scan (made July 18, 2012) than on the actual ticket.

My primary ticket focus is the 1971 Pirates. However, I occasionally grow impatient waiting for stubs I don't have and find myself dabbling with the 1960 Pirates.

Here are subs to Opening Day stub, a 1960 Pirates Season Pass, and a Game 7 1960 Series stub. I am considering framing these with the accompanying 8X10 Type I photo of the ensuing on field pandemonium following Maz's historic walk off.

I haven't seen other copies of this photo. I think it's an interesting picture in that it effectively tells the story. There is Maz in the center of the scrum at home plate, a prematurely bald Danny Murtaugh celebrating can be seen celebrating, the umpire is sprinting from the melee followed by closely by Stengel who is leading the crestfallen Yankees to the clubhouse. Most poignant of all is the parting of the crowd for a dejected Ralph Terry walking off the field with his head down.

Ron, great Yankee Stadium Stubs.

Gary, I see to remember a Mets Clubhouse Store at Roosevelt Field. Was this machine located in the store?

Picked up this ticket stub today. It is from the major league debut of Masanori Murasaki, the first Japanese born player to appear in a major league game. He pitched an inning in relief for the SF Giants in a loss to the NY Mets on 9/1/64. He would finish out the '64 season with the Giants and appear in 45 games the next season before returning to Japan for the remainder of his career. It would be another 30 years before a player from Japan played in the major leagues again when Hideo Nomo pitched for the Dodgers.

Here's a nice piece about Murasaki: http://time.com/3955421/masanori-murakami/

No. The machine was located in the mall itself. It was on the main level, near the entrance to JC Penney.

I don't think the Mets Clubhouse Store was there at the time. It's not there now.

I haven't been to Roosevelt Field in years, so when I went there last week to meet Todd Frazier at the Steiner Sports store, I was surprised by how much the mall had changed.

Here are 3 stubs I really like that I have picked up recently:

1.) On July 21, 1959 integration in baseball was complete. Pumpsie Green had become the first black player to appear in a game for the Boston Red Sox when he pinch ran in the 8th inning of a game against the White Sox. The Red Sox had the dubious distinction of being the last team to integrate, some 12+ years after Jackie Robinson first appeared. Included is a sketch that appeared in the Boston Herald during spring training.

2.) On September 16, 1956 Bobby Balcena, of the Cincinnati Redlegs, pinch hit in a game against the Brooklyn Dodgers. This was Balcena's MLB Debut. He would appear in 7 games total that season and never make it back to the majors. What makes this footnote in baseball history special is Balcena was the first player of Asian descent to appear in a major league game. His parents immigrated from the Phillipines and he was raised in Southern California. It would be another 8 years before Masanori Murakami of Japan, the first Asian born player, would play for the SF Giants.

3.) On August 22, 1965 the Dodgers and Giants were in another heated pennant race. On this day Juan Marichal and John Roseboro would engage in one of the most infamous brawls in baseball history. Juan Marichal struck Roseboro on the head with his bat after the two had become involved in an argument. One thing I had never really noticed after looking at the pictures was Tito Fuentes also was wielding a bat although he didn't use it. He got to stay in the game for his efforts. After order had been restored Willie Mays hit a 3-run HR off Sandy Koufax and the Giants went on to win the game.
