It's Thanksgiving week, and I for one am thankful that I have so many great cards to show off and trade in this month's edition of Time Travel Trading! So unbuckle those belts and get comfy, because there's a lot to digest here!
When I concluded last month's update, I mentioned I had one more trade pending. Wouldn't you know it, those cards came the same day I posted. The trade comes courtesy of Greg (Night Owl Cards). Greg sent these two cards in exchange for a football card:
I had an opportunity to make a trade on the TCDB, but the other trader wanted a few cards that were in the Time Travel stack. So I made a trade with myself, adding those two cards to my personal collection and putting these two in the trade stack:
We come full circle with our last trade, which comes from Greg (Night Owl Cards) again! This time he nabbed a few players he has had the opportunity to interview and sent back some beauties, including a vintage Koufax and a Hostess. (As a upstate NY native, I appreciate those Bills cards as well - Let's go Buffalo!)

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: 128 (2 pending!)
Unique trading partners: 54
Number of cards mailed out: 492
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1910-11
Number of cards received: 773
Year of oldest card received: 1890
Haha, I just posted that Lassman card on my blog this week. For now just claiming Boog Powell, will come back for more later. Thanks as always!
ReplyDeleteI noticed that! I almost commented about it too..
DeleteCan I add Tasker, Fisk & Eovaldi? Thanks!
DeleteMailed you some cards today
DeleteDepending on the condition of the '68 Frank Howard and Ricardo Joseph, I'll take those. Otherwise, I'll just enjoy browsing. (Enjoy those 78-79 basketball cards). Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI sent you an email!
DeleteDid you not get cards from me?
ReplyDeleteNo, nothing yet. I have another trade partner who sent out cards a month ago that I also haven't gotten yet, so I'm wondering if I'm having post office issues. I'm sure yours will turn up.
DeleteHey Matt, I'll take:
