I would like to request a preliminary appraisal of an original boarding pass issued in the name of Lionel Messi. The boarding pass is for Air Europa flight UX938 from Prague to Barcelona on 24 October 2019, the day after FC Barcelona's UEFA Champions League match against Slavia Prague on 23 October 2019. Messi played in the match and scored the opening goal. This is the original physical boarding pass, not a copy or reproduction. I obtained the boarding pass while attending an official FC Barcelona Camp in 2019. As part of the experience, participants trained at FC Barcelona's training facilities, toured Camp Nou and were given access to the FC Barcelona team bus. The boarding pass was found on the team bus during this visit. I found it october 28th 2019 I have extensive documentation supporting the provenance, including: The original boarding pass. Photographs taken on the day it was found. Proof of participation in the official FC Barcelona Camp. Additional photographs and documentation from the event. I would be grateful if your Sports Department could review the material and let me know whether this is an item Sotheby's would be interested in evaluating further. The fourth picture is how the condition is today almost 7 years after i found it, the resolution on the picture may cause it look way worse than it actually is. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Robin Stridfeldt
