Lot # 2353: July 25, 1956 Brooklyn Dodgers (vs. Cincinnati Reds) Ticket Stub - Game Played in Jersey City - Duke Snider Walk-Off Home Run

Brooklyn Dodgers regular-season ticket stub issued for a game against the Cincinnati Reds on July 25, 1956, played at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City, New Jersey. In an attempt to put pressure on the city of Brooklyn to build the Dodgers a new stadium, team owner Walter O'Malley had the Dodgers play 15 home games across the 1956 and 1957 seasons in New Jersey. Duke Snider hit a walk-off blast as the Dodgers beat the Reds 3-2. Frank Robinson homered for the Reds in the losing effort. The ticket stub (1.25 x 2.5 inches) has a small piece of tape affixed to the front and a tape stain just above. Fair condition overall.
