The 1946 Negro World Series was the fifth postseason championship between the eastern Negro National League and western Negro American League. This series marked the last appearance by J.L. Wilkinson's Kansas City Monarchs in the World Series and the only Negro World Series championship for Effa Manley's Newark Eagles. With Organized Baseball having begun to integrate that year dozens of scouts were reportedly in the stands to take a look at some of the top black talent in baseball.
Dated September 17 1946 as issued for a game played between the Newark Eagles and Kansas City Monarchs at the Polo Grounds in New York City this rare ticket is for a lower box seat. Apart from a chip missing from the top left corner the ticket shows only moderate handling wear and retains excellent color and graphics. VG-EX condition.
