Two deserving teams battled to a hard-fought finish in the 1940 World Series, with the Cincinnati Reds and Detroit Tigers going the distance in this long ago Fall Classic. After alternating wins through the first six games, the Reds trumped the Tigers heavy hitters with ace pitching to earn a 2-1 win in the Game 7 clincher. 26,854 fans were on hand at Crosley Field to witness Reds 20-game winner Paul Derringer hold the Tigers to a single run. Here's your chance to score one of the ticket stubs from this tight finish. Offered is a 1940 Reds World Series Game 7 ticket stub from a game that saw the Reds clinch the second World Series championship in franchise history. Though this octogenarian stub rates as (FR) due to multiple creases, it remains pleasing to behold thanks to bold colors and distinct graphics.

Opening Bid $50.
