Description: Ticket stub to last game played at Ebbets Field on Sept. 24th, 1957. The original bearer of this ticket stub was one of only 6,673 fans who turned out to see the Dodgers take the field in Brooklyn for last time. The Dodgers beat the Pirates 2-0. Ebbets Field, in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, was home to the Dodgers in lean times and glory years. By 1957, however, Ebbets Field had grown too old to satisfy Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley, and in 1958, Brooklyn's beloved Dodgers had moved to Los Angeles. The park was demolished two years later in 1960. The stub is neatly torn with no visible creases. A light notation "Pitts" appears in pencil: EX-MT (With note to pencil notation)

Estimated Price: ($750.00-$1,250.00)
