Time Travel Trading Update #56


 
Another month bring 6 more trades, with a variety of cards sure to catch your eye! Enough with the teaser, let's see what we got!
 
Our first trade comes from Chris (The Collector/The 1993). Chris picked up a couple of cards, including an awesome 1967 Willie Stargell. In return, a trio of 60's cards!


Next up is blog reader Alan, who made made his first trade in June and came back again last month for his second trade. I sent some Phillies alumni his way, and he came back with a trio of Red Sox cards, a Tiger, and the first Seattle Pilot to make his way onto the trade stack!
 
Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life) makes his monthly trade yet again. The oversized Exhibits are among the cards now in his possession. In return, he gave me the bird - not once, but twice (Or four times if you include that Blue Jay and Eagle!)

It's been less than a year since Brendan (The View From The Third Floor)  made his first Time Travel Trade, but he's become the second most prolific trader here, only behind Bo. Brendan's 8th trade saw a quartet of football cards go to him. What he sent in return was beyond generous. We now have our first die-cut, as well as 2 more serial numbered cards!

 


Stepping up to the plate is Jon (A Penny Sleeve For Your Thoughts/The All-Time Portland Beavers Project), who took 60's All-Star Frank Lary and graciously sent me three more cards from the 1958 Topps set. I now have 11 cards from this set in the trade stack, amazing when you consider I started out with just a 12-card pack of 2018 Topps!

Last but not least, we have a trade from Greg (Night Owl Cards). In return for a 1984 O-Pee-Chee card, he sent me two examples of the greatest manager card design Topps ever did! 


Once again, I'm overwhelmed by the returns from my trade partners. You guys are awesome! Thanks again.

See something you like? Trading for it couldn't be simpler! All I seek for in return is an older card than the one I send you. Offers can be made here or on the TCDB (Memeber ID: Kep75)

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: 114
Unique trading partners: 52

Number of cards mailed out: 430
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1910-11

Number of cards received: 689
Year of oldest card received: 1890

  1. Quite the inventory you've built up!

    Still finding some stuff I want. I somehow missed the '84 OPC Jorge Orta. I'll also take the '69 Joe Gordon.

  2. Okay.

    The '79 Carlton, '81 Alfredo Griffin, and '84 McGraw please.

    This will close out the 78=79 basketball, so celebrate safely. :)
