It's time once again to put a few more unwanted Time Travel Trading cards on the proverbial chopping block and see who could be saved from a potential lifetime of servitude in my personal collection!

Our first pair of remnants come from Jon and his recently on sabbatical blog (A Penny Sleeve For Your Thoughts). Only one of a trio of 1958 Topps cards ended up generating trade interest, and these two gents have languished in the TTT box for over 3 years unclaimed.

The next Time Travel Trade remnant comes from Greg (Night Owl Cards), who sent a pair from the best manager cards ever produced. (Seriously, if Heritage doesn't recreate these in a few years, I think it justifies a massive protest at the Fanatics headquarters.) Poor Mauch, it's sad enough he's the winningest manager to never lead his team to a World Series, but now his card sits in trade box purgatory.
Only you can save these cards from their Time Traveling tailspin! Just an older card will put them in gentle hands!
Looks like they used Mauch's photo from his '57 Topps card.
