Interesting and historically curious/significant ticket stub dates to "Jackie Robinson Day" at Ebbets Field on September 23, 1947. That was Robinson's rookie season, one of the rare - if any - times that a rookie has been honored with his own "Day" before season's end. For backstory, the Sporting News named Jackie as its Rookie of the Year two weeks before the end of the season, allowing the Dodgers to host a celebration of his accomplishments in-season. This was not only the first season in which ROTY was ever recognized, but there was only one awarded for the entire Major Leagues (as opposed to one for AL and one for NL in the modern era), pointing to Robinson's immediate impact on the sport. Brown stub measures 1.5x2.75" and the tear is neat but not quite perfect; encapsulated by PSA as STUB GOOD 2, though it has a very clean look with no blemishes evident. The Dodgers celebrated their Rookie of the Year by showering him with gifts in the pregame ceremony, and continued on the field with a 6-1 win over the New York Giants.
