A Solid Investment: Mr. Met Coin Bank
Date: 1965
What better way to save for a Mets ticket than with a Mr. Met coin bank? This mascot-themed money box provided a safe location for young fans to collect and cash in. In 1965, home tickets at Shea Stadium priced at $2.50 for reserved seats or a cool $3.50 for box seats.
