April 15, 1951 Mickey Mantle Home Run Ticket from Two Days Before MLB Debut
On April 15, 1951, the Yankees played an exhibition game against the Brooklyn Dodgers at Ebbets field. In those first few at bats in a professional ball park as a rookie, Mickey Mantle hit his first Home Run (unofficial) in the 8th inning. It is the earliest Mantle home run in a major league ball park and certainly an indication of what was to come over his career! Offered is a rare Brooklyn Dodgers ticket stub from that historic game. The stub (1.25x3.5"), issued for a "Lower Stand" seat, is dated "Sun., April 15, 1951" on the front. In Very Good condition, with a few light creases throughout.
