1965 All Star Game home plate ashtray

Question:
I have a "Home Plate," Plate. Minnesota Twins 1965 American League Champions. Green in color, I would say it is in fantastic condition as there are no scratches, chips or dings. There is no number on the back. When in that year was this produced? About how many were made? What is it’s value?

Answer: Hello

It is a commemorative item for the1965 all star game, I assume made in the same year. I don’t have a total that were produced, but it is a popular item, both with Red Wing and sports collectors. It has a book value of around 500.00. thanks, steve n rose
