Rare Los Angeles Dodgers full ticket issued for the team's historic first game in Los Angeles on April 18, 1958. Graded NM 7 by PSA. This is one of only two examples of this full ticket graded at this level, with NONE graded higher. It is also just one of four examples listed in the PSA Population Report. Brooklyn's loss was Los Angeles' gain in 1958, as the Dodgers relocated to the west coast, calling the Los Angeles Coliseum home for its first four seasons before moving to Dodger Stadium. Fittingly, the Dodgers' opponent for their first game in Los Angeles was the San Francisco Giants, who also had just moved from New York that year. The Dodgers' first home game of the 1958 season was a victorious one, as they defeated the Giants 6-5, with Carl Erskine earning the victory. The ticket measures 1.5x5" and displays two cancellation holes.
