What is the Value of a 1963 official all-star program played in Cleveland?

Answer 1

All-Star Game Programs are generally more scarce than World Series Programs. With the exception of four years there is only one game played yearly, as opposed to 4-7 game played in the World Series. All-Star Programs have been printed every year with the exception of 1945 when no game was played due to WWII.

A 1963 Baseball All Star Game Program is worth about $75. -$125. In Excellent - Near/Mint condition.

As with all collectibles, condition is the most important factor of all providing that the item is authentic. With programs/scorecards the slightest flaws will bring the price down significantly. An exceptional mint condition scorecard could sell for more.

Common flaws would be staining, foxing (yellowing), fading, creases, rips, loose pages, cracked binding, and writing on the cover. Un-scored programs will generally sell at a higher price than a scored program but sometimes it doesn't effect value. The over all condition, and how well the cover displays will.

The value on a "scored" program as opposed to a un-scored program can vary depending on the game, and collectors preference. In general I would say an un-scored program will sell at a higher price. Some collectors do not mind scored programs, or might prefer it scored. A game in note that might sell at a higher price "scored" would be Don Larsens perfect game in the 1956 World Series.
