Time Travel Trading Update #44

You may recall with the last Time Travel Trading Update that I was faced with a conundrum with what to do with some cards I had recently acquired. After some outside input and much contemplation, I decided to trade those cards to myself and replace them with some from my personal collection. I have added the following to the stack: 

In addition, I also made a standard Time Travel Trade through the TCDB. I showed off some extra cards I received in that trade last week, but now the stack has a little more touch of gray:

The trade stack keeps getting older and older! Plus, I already have 2 small trades in the works for next time! I've been fortunate to get a few new traders of late to inject some new cards into the project, but I need your help to keep the inventory circulating! If you see anything you like, let me know!

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: 57 (2 pending!)
Unique trading partners: 33

Number of cards mailed out: 189
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1956

Number of cards received: 413
Year of oldest card received: 1915

  1. I can use the 71T with Clyde Wright. And I may have asked this before, but which variation is the 61 checklist? Can you send me front/back pictures?

  3. Hey Matt. I'm interested in Poholsky and Lennon from 57, Sisler from 60, Oliva from 71, and Bench and Montefusco from 81. Pretty sure I have your address somewhere but will let you know if I don't. I should be able to get 5 older cards out to you tomorrow or Wednesday. Will that work?
