All passes are from the career of Whalen Monica

Monica started attending baseball’s World Series in 1926 and baseball’s All-Star game in 1937. Beginning in 1948 Monica worked with production companies covering the World Series and All-Star Games. His work would eventually lead him to positions with “This Week in Baseball” and Major League Baseball Productions.

Both passes are from Memorial Stadium and have all of the game tabs removed. Both are made out to "Whalen Minoca" the Roving Messenger pass adds "Major League BB" The Press Pass adds "MLB Prod" and Section is listed as "Roving". Press pass has two pregame meal punches for the Hit & Run Club. both are fairly clean with moderate creasing. As with all these passes they are cool items that are MUCH rarer than a ticket stub.
