PUNCHBOARD TICKET PAPER - $35

This rare item is an uncut sheet of punchboard tickets. The sheet has been folded in the picture to show both the front, with the ticket #s, and the back, with the serial #s. The sheet has 160 tickets in columns of 16 on it. In production, the sheets were cut height wise into strips, and run through the crimper, which puts the pleat or accordion fold into the tickets. The pleated strips were called "straws", and were inserted into stacks of boards (16 high with this sheet). When all the holes of the stacked boards were filled, the tickets were cut by a band saw, & the top & bottom layers of the punchboard were attached. If you look closely at the picture you can see different serial #s height wise, but they are the same #s lengthwise. The sheet measures 10 1/8 x 17 inches, and is slightly wrinkled, but would frame up nicely.
