I'm sorry, but there will be no story for this post. Creatively, I'm tapped out. I enjoy writing these little tales, but after all this time I feel like they're getting repetitive. I'm toying with the idea of rebooting the stories, and actually telling one long narrative as opposed to multiple one-shot shorts. That would take some serious planning, however. We'll see...
**********
Once again, Bo from Baseball Cards Come To Life! has come through with another great trade. In sending out his cards, I reached another milestone - I have now sent out exactly 100 cards since this project has began! Considering I only started out with just a pack of 13, that's an impressive total. I couldn't have done it without so many great trade partners! Here's the latest and greatest cards joining the stack:

I see what you did there, Bo!

Look at all those beautiful '65s!

Traders needed! I'm looking for anyone willing to trade a card older than what they receive! I can't keep relying on Bo (and Gary for that matter) to keep the flow of cards coming and going! I need fresh blood! Make me an offer!

The Time Travel Trading Project is simple in concept. I started out with a random pack of 2018 Topps Series 1 baseball cards. My aim was to trade every card in that pack for something older. Each card I receive in turn is then made available for trade, with the goal to get the oldest card I can get.
Number of trades completed: 34
Unique trading partners: 24
Number of cards mailed out: 100!
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1956
Number of cards received: 258
Year of oldest card received: 1938
