...a Yankees ticket dated June 14, 1941...the middle of Joe Dimaggio's 56 game hit streak. I couldn't find a box score for the game but found the following:
Yankees beat the Indians 4-1, Feller pitched. Joe D.'s hit streak extended to 27 games.
Image came up kinda blurry...scanner is focusing on the screw-down.
Also couldn't find any values from completed auctions...any ideas?

Wow, what a nice "find' that was - and that ticket is in decent condition - worth some good money for sure.
Ticket values can be all over the place - frankly, I think sports tickets such as that are a very undervalued collectible and offer good potential for investment.
A ticket from a game during Dimaggio's streak? Nice! That's gotta be worth some decent coin. Congrats.
SteveK, what have you done with Boopotts??

I agree, and it's not even debatable.
Maybe you can even retain the lawyer representing Kobe's housecleaner...

The only problem is what would I get if I won? Boo's collection of PSA 7 Topps 1987 baseball cards?
