Brooklyn Dodgers admission ticket signed on the front in 8/10 black steel tip fountain pen ink by Stephen McKeever, who served as Brooklyn Dodgers President from 1932 until his death in 1938. McKeever and his brother Ed were construction contractors in Brooklyn during in the early 1900s. On January 2, 1912 Steve and his brother bought half of the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team with co-owner Charles Ebbets and built what would become known as Ebbets Field. When Ebbets died Ed McKeever took over as president. Unfortunately Ed would catch a cold at the Ebbet's funeral and would die himself within a week. Steve became President after that and would remain the primary owner of the Dodgers until his death in 1938. Ticket itself in fairly nice condition for the age.
Full LOA from JSA. PSA/DNA found it inconclusive due to the lack of exemplars.
