Rips, crease, stains and fading could bring the price down significantly.

Ticket stubs from baseball games that feature special events or player milestones are highly sought after by collectors. Special events such as opening day, inaugural games, last game at a Stadium, play-offs, World Series, etc. Player milestones can include 500 home runs, 300 win, or any record breaking event.

There is a large community of collectors that collect tickets stubs of baseball games when a noted player Wins a game (pitcher), or hits a Home Run. Record breaking Players such as Mantle, Mays Aaron, and now players like Alex Rodriguez who have a shot at hitting 500, 600 home runs or more. Tickets/stubs from these games are very desirable, and will bring top dollar if a collector needs this ticket to complete their set. The 1917 Red Sox had a pitcher that won 24 games that year. Babe Ruth. He also hit two Home Runs that year giving him a total of nine career Home Runs. Any ticket stubs from a game when Ruth won a ball game or hit a home run will bring top dollar.
