May 12, 1970 was a historic day for the Cubs organization as Ernie Banks hit home run number 500 in a 4-3 victory over the Braves. Broadcaster Jack Brickhouse could barely hold his excitement, screeching out “It is home run number 500 for Ernie Banks” as Mr. Cub became the only non-steroid user in club history to achieve the feat. The offered ticket stub from that celebrated day is encapsulated and graded EX-MT 6 by PSA. The Child’s Ticket was a good deal at $1.00; this collectible is a must have for Cubs fans and ticket enthusiasts alike!
