Time Travel Trading Update #47

OK, first things first: If you read my post from last week, you'll know I had to make another little swap with myself. (It was the only way to cure my PSC!) Anyway, I decided to replace the 1989 Fleer card I needed with an oddball card: 

 

Speaking of oddballs, when I showed off those beautiful Jay Publishing Yankees last time, I had a gut feeling that Bo from Baseball Cards Come To Life would be the one who ended up with them. Even though he gave everyone else a full day to lay claim to them, he ended up being the only one to show any interest. I sent the Yankees and a few others to him, and as usual he responded with a bevy of great cards!

Why, yes, that is the late, great Bob Gibson making an appearance:

Check out the star power in this batch!

Bo throws in a quartet of 1961 Topps as well:

We'll finish things off with a couple of great cards from 1956:

 

These are great additions, thanks again Bo! 

As always, this project only works if I have people to trade with. Any of these cards are available, and all I'm asking in return is an older card. 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: 65
Unique trading partners: 37

Number of cards mailed out: 213
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1955

Number of cards received: 443
Year of oldest card received: 1915
