Trapped In Time: Remnants Of The 211th - 215th Trades

 

For the first time since I've done these remnant posts, all five featured trades have at least one card remaining. A whopping 25 cards are on the trade block, and I'm hoping a few of them will find new homes. It's last call for the following cards!

Brendan (The View From The Third Floor) sent a lot of cards for the 4 he had traded for. As you can see, most of them went with no issue, with just these 6 remaining. I must admit I'm surprised the two cards from Japan didn't generate any interest. 

 

Trade #212 Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life!)

Traded 12/02/22: 2004 Fleer InScribed #56 Chase Utley, 1985 Drake's Big Hitters #22 Dave Parker, 1984 Fleer Team Action (football) #74 Super Bowl XVIII, 1983 Card Collectors 1953 Bowman Color Reprint #61 George Kell, 1980 Cramer Baseball Legends Series 1 #16 Jimmie Foxx, 1976 Topps (football) #321 Mike Boryla, 1975 Topps (football) #178 Rich McGeorge, 1975 Topps (football) #183 Jim Otis (RC), 1970 Topps (football) #119 George Byrd

A lone manager card is all that remains from this trade with Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life!). It's cool that the coaches get some recognition too in this set. Now that teams have between 10-13 coaches, it's be hard to do today.

 

Trade #213 Greg (Night Owl Cards)

Traded 12/02/22: 1990 Fleer - All-Star Team #1 Harold Baines, 1985 Topps - Glossy All-Stars #18 Chet Lemon, 1976 Topps (football) #411 Ron Pritchard, 1975 Topps #378 Derrel Thomas

Greg (Night Owl Cards) batted .500 with this trade. I enjoyed seeing the Team USA cards growing up, and it was fun to see which players eventually made it to the big leagues.

There's just something about 80's cards I guess. I'm not surprised the 1987 and 1988 cards didn't generate interest. I would have thought the 1986 traded singles might have at least gotten a nibble.

Finally some cards from Jeff (Wax Pack Wonders). I know there hasn't been any shortage of reprints in the hobby, but these are some pretty sharp looking cards and I thought these would appeal to someone. I particularly like the O'Doul and Dykes cards.

 

 

An older card - that's all it takes to save these from the purgatory of my personal collection. Last chance to acquire some great cards!
