Collector's Notes

Michigan began operating its state lottery in the early 1970s, making surviving tickets from 1974 and 1975 small pieces of the program's early paper history.

Kept together, the three tickets make a compact snapshot of how Michigan lottery tickets looked during the middle of the 1970s.
