This is a seldom seen ticket from the October 29, 1955 game played at Nishinomiya Stadium. "New York Yankees" is printed in English on the left edge of the obverse, along with the team logo on the right side. Unlike most 1955 Tour tickets, this one has the New York Yankees team roster printed in Japanese on the reverse. The roster includes the names of Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford, and all of the great Bronx Bombers. The game was won by the Yankees 6-1 behind Ralph Terry. Bob Cerv homered.

Size: 5 1/2" x 2 3/8"

Condition: Would be Ex/Mt except for paper missing at lower right from the ticket being torn when the patron entered the ballpark.
