Rare Brooklyn Dodgers regular-season full ticket (1.25 x 5.5 inches) issued for a game against the St. Louis Cardinals on May 7, 1947, in which Jackie Robinson was caught stealing for the first time. The Cardinals defeated the Dodgers 2-1. Robinson went 1 for 5 in the game. Graded VG 3 by PSA (submitted by REA). This is the only full ticket that has ever been graded by PSA! This is also the first example we have handled in the past twenty years. Robinson was in his rookie season in 1947, and any Dodgers tickets from that historic season, especially those from significant games, have always been highly prized by collectors. Opening Bid $200.
