With the All Star game behind us and the pennant race in full swing it's time to offer some baseball history for sale! Each authentic ticket stub is a one of a kind item and will come with a certificate describing the history of the game the ticket represents.

Today's offering is a unique yet affordable piece of baseball and American history. This Brooklyn Dodgers ticket from the 1940s is for a Ladies Day game where ladies were admitted for a discount price to Brooklyn's Ebbets Field. This Branch Rickey era ticket stub is from the days when Jackie Robinson made American history by breaking baseball's shameful color barrier. The lady who purchased this ticket was a witness to baseball history when "Dem Bums" represented the borough of Brooklyn. Perhaps Jackie Robinson stole home that day?

Price $30 for local pick up - shipping available.

The perfect gift for a Dodgers fan or a lady who loves baseball? Our ticket stubs are relics of baseball history - mute witnesses to the history of America's pastime. Unlike baseball cards tickets were rarely saved and only a limited number still exist from any game from baseball's vintage history.

Here are nine baseball relics, tickets used by a witness to games in baseball's bygone era, that we're offering out of our private collection. These historic pieces run from the 1930s through the 50s and down to the 1970s.

SOLD - Inquire if you’re interested in a similar ticket.

Aaron Judge is closing in on baseball history - will he get one more home run to pass Roger Maris for the American League single season record?

Pick up an awesome ballpark relic for the Yankees fan in your life. This ticket stub comes from the 2017 American League Championship Series game 3 when Judge hit a playoff home run in his rookie season. Better than a rookie card this ticket was in the park when Judge bashed his bomb in Yankee stadium. I have 3 of these from consecutive seats - they're $10 each or $25 for all 3 (they come with our standard certificate that tells the history associated with the ticket). Message for paypal instructions or local pick up.SOLD

As promised, here's the rookie season Pujols ticket up for sale. In our opinion this is much cooler than a rookie card!

This affordable piece of Pujol's rookie history is only $30 (local pickup up for free - shipping for cost) and comes with a certificate that explains the history behind the ticket. First come first serve - buy this for the Pujols, Cardinals or baseball history fan in your family (better yet put it up for them for Christmas or a birthday)!

Last night Albert Pujols became only the fourth member of the 700 home run club! His rookie card can be found in every collectible shop and Ebay lists over 6,100 to sell - you can literally buy thousands of the same example if you wish.

But what about a near mint copy of a season ticket of a game he actually hit a home run? Most tickets were folded, shoved in pockets and generally discarded after the game. This beautiful example of a Cardinals season ticket from 2011 was used by someone to witness Pujols hit one of his home runs. Unlike a baseball card this relic is a witness to baseball history. We only have two to sell - this one and one from his rookie season that will be posted later.

This affordable piece of history is only $15 (local pickup up for free - shipping for cost) and comes with a certificate that explains the history behind the ticket. First come first serve - buy this for the Pujols, Cardinals or baseball history fan in your family.

This Milwaukee Braves ticket stub to the game on May 1st, 1954 might be my favorite. Hank Aaron played for the Braves that day but didn't hit a home run. Why is this stub so cool then? On that day Aaron was a mere 20 years old playing in only his 14th game of his rookie season. He had a grand total of 2 home runs to his name when someone used this ticket to watch him play. I wonder if they had any clue that young rookie would one day become baseball's all-time home run leader? Doubt it.

Sorry I've not posted anything in a bit - I've been working at putting a bunch of tickets on consignment at Page 3 Comics in Pikeville. Check them out if you're interested in a piece of baseball history. I also still plan to offer other stubs for sale on this site as unique gifts for the baseball fan in your life - perhaps a birthday or Christmas?

I've finally got the certificates ready for the ticket stubs. Here's a sample of what the certificates will look like (both front and reverse). The certificate tells the story of the game and Hall of Famers who played that day. For example, this sample from 1959 was a game Mickey Mantle played in and the 1949 game matched Ted Williams of the Red Sox against Joe Dimaggio and the Yankees.

FYI - the 1959 Yankees stub - $25
the 1949 Yankees stub - $100
