Today, those passes are highly prized by collectors, with complete sets found in only the most advanced collections. The offered pass was issued for the 1925 season.

The front lettering reads NY Giants - 1925 - Chas. A. Stoneham Pres." The reverse engraving features the pass number ("389") and the name of the recipient ("Ray Kelly").

Light tarnishing on the front and reverse, otherwise it remains in Near Mint condition. The is one of five different New York Giants silver season passes featured in this auction, all of which are new to the hobby.
