MLB All-Star Game Ticket Stubs: What Are They Worth?

The Midsummer Classic: A Collectible Tradition

The MLB All-Star Game has been played annually since 1933 (with a brief period of two games per year from 1959-1962). For nearly a century, the Midsummer Classic has brought together baseball's best players in a single game, and the ticket stubs from these exhibitions are popular collectibles that span the entire modern era of the sport.

All-Star Game stubs appeal to a wide range of collectors. Some pursue complete sets — a stub from every All-Star Game ever played. Others focus on specific eras, specific host cities, or games that featured notable moments. The diversity of collecting approaches keeps the market for these stubs active and healthy.

Value by Era

Pre-War All-Star Games (1933-1945)

The earliest All-Star Game stubs are the most valuable due to extreme scarcity. The very first All-Star Game in 1933 at Comiskey Park, featuring Babe Ruth's home run, produces stubs that are genuinely rare. Any pre-war All-Star Game stub in reasonable condition can be worth hundreds of dollars.

Golden Age (1946-1968)

All-Star Games from baseball's golden age feature lineups stacked with legends — Williams, Mays, Mantle, Aaron, Koufax. Stubs from this era typically range from $100-$500 depending on the specific game and condition.

Modern Era (1969-Present)

Modern All-Star Game stubs are more readily available, with values typically ranging from $20-$150. Games played at since-demolished stadiums carry slight premiums, as do games featuring memorable moments like the 2002 tie or Pete Rose's collision at the plate in 1970.

What Makes Certain All-Star Stubs More Valuable

Host city and venue matter — stubs from All-Star Games at legendary or defunct stadiums are more collectible. The lineups and any notable events during the game affect value. And condition, as always, plays a role. If you have All-Star Game stubs from any era, StubHaul offers free evaluations and competitive cash offers.
