Early Football Tickets and Schedules


1944 Steelers-Cardinals "Card-Pitt" vs. Cleveland Rams WWII era Football Ticket.  This ticket is from the one year merger between the Chicago Cardinals and Pittsburgh Steelers.  This merger was done due to manpower shortage caused by WWII.  The ticket has a small amount of paper adhered to its left side, as well as a small piece on its reverse.  A very attractive and very rare ticket.
Sold.


1894 Hampden Park Bloodbath Harvard versus Yale Football Ticket.  The Harvard Yale Football rivalry dates back to 1874, but it nearly ended after this 1894 matchup, which was played at a neutral site, Hampden Park in Springfield Massachusetts.  During the game, 7 players left with severe injuries, earning the game the moniker, the Hampden Park Bloodbath.  The following are some of violence the game exhibited:  Frank Hinkey has been alleged to have broken the collarbone of a Harvard player following a fair catch.  Yale tackle Fred Murphy broke the nose of Harvard's Bob Hallowell during an official's conference; in turn, Murphy absorbed a hard hit later in the contest that hospitalized him.  Also after the game, fans had violent interactions outside the park.  The violence and injuries, led to a two year hiatus of the Yale Harvard rivalry, and almost lead to Harvard abolishing the sport altogether.  The ticket exhibits a fair amount of creasing, but still has nice eye appeal.  A very rare ticket from the violent early days of the gridiron.

1943 Phil-Pitt Steagles vs. Washington Redskins WWII era Football Ticket.  This ticket is from the only one year merger between the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers, forming the "Steagles".  This merger was done due to manpower shortage caused by WWII.  The ticket does feature tape stains on each end, but otherwise is in very presentable condition.  Steagles tickets are very scarce.

Scarce 1926 AFL Philadelphia Quakers versus Chicago Bulls full football ticket.  The AFL was a competing league with the NFL, and only existed for the 1926 season.  The AFL was brought about by Red Grange and his agent C.C. Pyle desiring their own team, and after negotiations failed with the NFL, they started their own new league.  Grange played for the New York Yankees, who would join the NFL the following year.  This ticket is for the opening game of the season between the Quakers and Bulls.  The Quakers were packed with former NFL talent, including many Frankford Yellowjackets and Canton Bulldogs.  The back of the ticket advertises their next game against Wilson's All-California team, which was also known as the Los Angeles Wildcats.  These 1926 AFL tickets are beyond rare, and this one is a beauty.
