Important Notice: Please note that the format of this auction differs from a traditional eBay Live auction in that only absentee bids are accepted. There is no live "bidding on the close" in which to participate. All lots offered in this auction will close at exactly the same time, as opposed to a traditional one at a time closing of lots, and therefore there is no live "one lot at a time" bidding close in which to participate. Your left bids will compete with all other left bids by auction participants. Bids may be placed on the eBay system at any time prior to 9:00 PM EST, May 1, 2004. No bids will be recognized or accepted when the eBay Live "live bidding applet" is run early in the morning of May 2, 2004 strictly for the purpose of officially registering and recording the final auction results.

1946 Brooklyn Dodgers Phantom World Series Program

Phantom World Series program, produced in anticipation of the Dodgers winning the National League pennant in 1946. At the end of the regular season, the Cardinals and Dodgers finished tied for first place in the National League, requiring the scheduling of the Major League's first-ever pennant playoff series. Unfortunately for Brooklyn fans, the Cardinals beat the Dodgers in two straight games in the best of three series, clinching the pennant for St. Louis. Very few of these phantom programs, from this "World Series that never was," have survived as reminders of the lost opportunity. The program grades Ex-Mt with some toning along the edges and crisp off-white pages. Reserve $200. Estimate $400/$600.
