Pair of Evel Knievel tickets to his infamous Snake River Canyon Jump show in Idaho. As Knievel took off in his ''Skycycle X-2'' rocket, his parachute immediately opened causing him and his rocket to crash near the river's edge. Knievel avoided drowning since his jumpsuit malfunctioned, which kept him strapped to his cycle. The first ticket is a ''Reserved Section Canyon Side Seat'' $25 ticket for any and all 9 dates at the jump site, 31 August through 8 September 1974. The second is an unused $10 ''Closed Circuit'' ticket from 8 September 1974, the day of the jump. Reserved ticket measures 3.5'' x 8.75''; closed circuit ticket measures 3'' x 7.25''. Both fine condition.
