1909 World Series Ticket Sold at Auction
The 1909 World Series was between the Detroit Tigers and Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates were victorious in a seven game match. It’s believed that Pirates rookie pitcher, Babe Adams who is remembered for his great control, is one factor for this victory. Adams had spent much of that season relief pitching but proved himself during the end of the 1909 season that Pirates manager Fred Clarke trusted him as a starting pitcher in game one of the World Series.

1909 Detroit Tigers vs. Pittsburgh Pirates World Series Ticket
Original press ticket from the 1909 World Series, where the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Detroit Tigers at Bennett Park in seven games to capture their first championship of the modern Major League Baseball era, and the second championship in the club’s history. This rare World Series “Press” ticket reads, “Detroit Base Ball Co. / Bennett Park / 1909 World’s Series / Press Ticket / Issued to Henry Edwards / Admit One / To Press Box / Positively Not Transferable.” Known as the match up of all match ups, the Pirates’ Honus Wagner, who led the league with a .339 batting average and 100 RBI, came face-to-face with the Tigers’ Ty Cobb, who had just won his third consecutive American League batting title. Ticket, measuring 3″ x 2.5″, has a crease running through the center from folding and minor soiling along edges, else very good condition. Sold for $1,213.

1919 World Series Ticket Stub Game 2
Extraordinary high-grade ticket stub from Game 2 of the 1919 World Series, held at Cincinnati’s Redland Field. Game 2 of the 1919 World Series witnessed another lackluster effort by Chicago’s infamous “eight men out” as they conspired to “throw” the Series to the Reds. The main culprit in this game was pitcher Lefty Williams. Although Williams made a better attempt to conceal his deliberate ineffectiveness than did Eddie Cicotte in Game 1, the result was the same. Williams allowed just four hits, but his six walks helped the Reds score all the runs they would need in a 4-2 win against the punchless White Sox. Stub measures approximately 4.25″ x 2″. Few, if any, 1919 World Series ticket stubs have survived in near mint condition, but this example comes close. Only two very small horizontal surface wrinkles extend from right border and one would be hard pressed to find a finer example. Sold for $3,010.
1918 World Series Ticket Stub — With PSA/DNA Authentication
1918 World Series ticket stub featuring the Chicago Cubs and the Boston Red Sox. This ticket, dated 7 September, is for game three, won by the Red Sox over the Cubs, 2 to 1. Carl Mays was the winning pitcher. The Series was held early in September because World War I ended the regular season prematurely on September 1. Game four of this series was Babe Ruth’s final World Series appearance as a pitcher. Though there were concerns that the series was fixed, the real cheating problem didn’t erupt until the Black Sox Scandal of the 1919 series. Ticket from section N, seat 327 in Comiskey Park measures approximately 2” x 2.5”. Encapsulated by PSA/DNA. Sold for $1,720.
