I use Ultra-Pro Semi-Rigid Card Holders for my tickets. I file my tickets in date order - this makes it easy to add new pick-ups into my collection. They're pretty cheap (about $16 per box of 200), they're thin, they keep the tickets firmly centered and they keep the weight down vs. rigid sleeves. I don't collect Eagles tickets (I have the one below because it's from the JFK assassination weekend), but here's an example for you to reference. Larger sizes are available (including a "Tall" version that is the same height).
I keep most of my paper collectibles from postcards to movie posters in mylar sleeves, but I haven't found a small mylar holder I'm happy with yet (Mylar is more likely to shred your fingertips too). Last edited by Oldtix; 01-19-2010 at 09:34 AM. |

Question about how to store tickets in an album
I store my no-hitter ticket collection in 3 1/2" x 7 1/4" ticket top loaders in 3 pocket pages. It's an ideal way to store a collection in chronological order.
I hope that helps! |

Two of the greatest
events (there weren't many!) in the history of the Washington Senators are represented by these ticket stubs:
1924 World Series - Walter Johnson wins Game 7 in relief in the 12th inning for his first WS victory (he was the losing pitcher in Games 1 & 5) and for the Senators only WS win. Ironically, Johnson was the losing pitcher in Game 7 of the 1925 WS, after winning Games 1 & 4, the latter by a shutout. 1925 World Series - Sam Rice made an incredible and controversial catch, falling over the centerfield fence into the spectators sitting in the temporary seats to rob Earl Smith of a home run and preserve a one-run victory in Game 3 for the Senators; inasmuch as Rice disappeared from the sight of the umpires and players, the Pirates argued to no avail that Rice had dropped the ball. The fan who attended this game with this ticket would have been sitting in these temporary seats and presumably would have witnessed the catch. |

1974 playoffs
Oct 8 - 9th, 1974 playoffs between the Dodger and the Pirates. No big deal in the grand scheme of tickets, but for me it was. My buddy and I had mailed in to try and purchase tickets for the Dodger Bleachers for these games and were lucky enough to get them. This was less than a month after we started our freshman year in High School and we were wondering how we were going to convince our parents to let us go. Well, the stars were aligned just right because that year, it turns out, another High School that had a major fire just a month before was going to share our campus and so we went on a half day/split schedule...leaving our afternoons free. My buddy and I were able to take the bus from neighboring Alhambra to Dodger Stadium and then my Mom was able to come pick us up after work. Stargell hit a homerun in both games and Garvey hit two (we came close to catching one of them) in the deciding game. Great memories.

Base Ball Club of Indianapolis
Ticket stub for an Indianapolis ball game. Not sure that I can really determine anything from it??? Also below is a letter with the same signature that is on the ticket from the President of the Indianapolis baseball club, James A. Perry. He died shortly after the letter was written, in a plane crash.
Any info on the ticket stub would be greatly appreciated. |

Thanks Rick and Scott,
I appreciate the input. At the next show I go to, I am going to pick up some holders and sleeves and start organizing. |
