Description

Unused admission ticket from the World Trade Center Observatory, dated hours before the 9/11 attacks—proceeds donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation

Rare full World Trade Center admission ticket to the “Top of the World Trade Center Observatories,” dated September 10, 2001, with a 24-hour time of 19:51 (7:51 PM), indicating that this unused ticket was one of the very last purchased before the devastating terrorist attacks the following day on 9/11. The ticket, 8 x 2, lists an adult ticket price of $13.50, a pair of unique identification codes, “00301003776183” and “003 282338 13,” and an advertisement for J&R Music World on the reverse. In very fine condition. Encapsulated and graded by PSA/DNA as "EX 5.” The Twin Towers offered expansive views from the observation deck atop the South Tower and from the Windows on the World restaurant on the North Tower. This ticket, which was unused due to heavy rain in the NYC area on the night of September 10th, was intended to be used the following day.

Proceeds from the sale of this ticket will be donated to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, which builds mortgage-free smart homes for our most catastrophically injured veterans and first responders.
