Hard-to-find Yankees ticket stub from the last game of their 1955 Tour of Japan. Ticket has 3 large folds, and a corner missing.
I found one previous ticket description:
"This ticket stub is for the final game of the 16 game New York Yankees Tour of Japan, played at Korakuen Stadium against the All Japan Pro Baseball Team. The Yankees prevailed by a score of 9-3 in front of 45,000 fans. Whitey Ford started the game, but Jim Konstanty ultimately was the winning pitcher. Yogi Berra and Andy Carey homered. Surprisingly, the light hitting Carey led all Yankees on the Tour with seven home runs! The Yankees wrapped up the series with a record of 15-0-1."
Another article described the game:
"Not surprisingly, the final game, played on November 13, drew quite well. According to the Nippon Times, 35,000 cheering fans joined the Yankees, “saying sayonara.” Surprisingly, unlike 14 out of the previous 15 contests, the Tokyo outfit outhit the Yankees, 8 to 7. Yogi Berra homered twice in the Yankees’ 9-3 win. But as was true for the other 15 games, the spectators had not come to see the Japanese win, but rather, to see the American celebrities do what they did best."
