Is the 1932 World Series program the same as the souvenir scorecard?

Answer 1

Yes. The World Series program has a scorecard inside, and is referred to as both a program or a scorecard. A 1932 New York Yankees World Series program played at Yankee Stadium is worth about $750.-$1,250. in excellent - near/mint condition. A 1932 Chicago Cubs World Series program played at Wrigley Field is worth $700.-$1,000. 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.
