In what was certainly not an accurate preview of a remarkable fence-clearing career, 20-year-old Hank Aaron donned his Milwaukee Braves “No. 5” uniform and went 0-5 in his big league debut. A rare survivor, this Crosley Field ticket stub was issued on April 13, 1954 to one of 33,185 spectators in the Queen City that day. Encapsulated and Graded Good 2 by PSA, this voucher is the lone specimen at its tier with only one graded higher. The “Lower Box” stub features printed seating/event details and the facsimile signature of Reds president Powell Crosley.
