Attractive pair of ticket stubs from the Indianapolis 500 of 1947 and 1948.  The 1947 race was won by Mauri Rose, completing 200 labs in 4:17:52:17, the second-fastest finish ever.  The average speed of the race was 116.338 MPH.  The 1948 race was also run by Rose, becoming the second driver to win the Indy 500 in successive years.  Both stubs appear in FAIR GOOD condition with surface and corner wear, along with some minor creasing.  Despite the wear, both display very well.  Two stubs total.
