Lot 209: Collection of four 1932 World Series Ticket Stubs Including 2 From Babe Ruth’s Called Shot

ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $1,000.00
Winning Bid: $2,550.33
Price Realized: $3,047.64
Auction Date:5/3/2007 9:00 PM EST

A set of four brightly-colored World Series ticket stubs, two of which from Babe Ruth's historical Called Shot game. From the third game of the 1932 World Series that saw the Yankees face-off against the Chicago Cubs, the Called Shot tickets show very slight creases on the back but are in otherwise very good condition. The front features a large red "3" in the background and pronounces the game's stadium, Wrigley Field, with the seat numbers I-D19 and I-D20. The other two tickers are for the fourth game and have a green color scheme as compared to the yellow scheme of the third game tickets. The fourth game saw the Yankees cap a four game sweep against the Cubs to take the pennant. A great piece of The Great Bambino's legend.
