Nos Amours! Les Expos and Montreal fell in love in the spring of 1969 when major league baseball came to Canada for the first time ever. The Expos inaugural home opener occurred on April 14, 1969 at Jarry Park and here we offer a full unused ticket from that historic game. Defeating the St Louis Cardinals 8-7 in front of almost 30,000 newly-christened Montreal baseball fans, the 2 ½” x 7” ticket is the rare orange children’s bleacher variation and has “1969” and “Opening Game” printed on the front, while a home schedule graces the reverse. Encapsulated by PSA, the ticket has earned the grade of EX 5 and displays beautifully with no rips, creases or stains and just minor corner wear present. The PSA slab has light scratches and scuffs found throughout.
