1940 Vintage Dodger Ticket

Forget the standard rectangular shaped ticket stub. I want the Dodgers to make ticket stubs like they did in 1940. Above is a vintage 1940 Opening Day ticket stub, dated April 19, from Ebbets Field. It is shaped just like a catchers glove and includes the entire home schedule on the reverse. Unfortunately, not every ticket issued that year came in unusual shapes- just Opening Night. Still, it would be great if the Dodgers did this once in a while. Ticket available through Huggins & Scott Auctions.
