Can someone explain this designation on an Authentic 1974 Hank Aaron's 715th Home Run full game ticket? Thanks.

    It doesn't have a seat number. It was used as a design ticket and never intended for admission to the game.

    it is not the commeroative ticket you post. it was authenticated by psa with the noted designation. What is the value and scarcity? Lelands auction wants it. Thanks and God bless your family...

    Thank you. If you post a picture I am sure someone on the board would be able to help.

    What you have is a printers proof ticket. I believe they were made by the people printing the tickets to check color, how the ticket looks, and any flaws in the printing. It's no different than the proofs Topps uses. The ticket was NOT made for admission, only for the printers use.

    As for how scarce they are, I believe there are not many of them out there. I'm sure there are WAY more regular tickets and stubs out there compared to proof tickets. Value? Hard to say, they are so rare. But keep in mind that rare does not equal value.

    Here is a pic of my 1958 World Series ticket proof. I have one from the Braves and another from the Yankees.

    Proofs often bring about 10% of the value of a real full ticket.
