Another month full of trades means I have over 80 new cards to show you! I'm
grateful to all my trade partners who help turn over so many cards and keep
the stack fresh and worth checking out every month.
Our first trade comes from blog reader Alan, who keyed into my Red Sox fandom
and sent along an octet of Boston ballplayers from the 1974 set.
Brendan (The View From The Third Floor) always sends a nice selection of cards, and I found it humorous he sent a
double dose of Fred Lynn, Jose Cardinal and Ron Hunt cards:
The next two trades were both single cards, so I put them both on one photo.
The Kellogg's card comes from Greg (Night Owl Cards), who
snapped up a 1981 Topps Coke card. A TCDB trade with a newcomer named Alex
landed me the Fred Kages card.
I sent regular blog reader Ken one envelope, and he sent me back three! That's a generous return of cards! Anyone working on the 2021 Topps Archives
set?
Ken also sent a nice selection of 1962 Topps:
Plus a bunch more awesome vintage! When I saw the markings on that '61 Ray Sadeck, it looked familiar. Sure enough, I sent Ken that exact same card in a previous Time Travel trade! This is the second straight month I've received a card that was originally sent out to someone in a previous Time Travel trade! It's my own personal Multiverse of Madness!
What's that you say? Six trades in already and we haven't seen the monthly trade from Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life) yet?
Never fear! Bo knows what the people want, and Bo delivers! He's noticed someone has been on a bit of a food issue kick, and that O-Pee-Chee has been popular lately:
Bo also knows that 70's football has been doing well, and vintage baseball is always welcome!
I got two more trades still being completed, but those will have to wait until next time! There's plenty here anyways to keep you occupied until then!
As always, these cards are all available in exchange for an older card. You
can claim your cards below, or through the TCDB (Kep75). Let's make some trades!

Can I claim '62 Baldschun, Koplitz, Willey, Craig, Short, Farley; '60 Carreon, Giants and Indians; and the Francona, Bailey and O'Toole Post cards? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou sure can!
DeleteComing back to claim Grimsley, Springer and the remainder of the '21 Archives cards. Thanks!
DeleteWow, is this series blowing up or is it my imagination? I can barely focus on it all ... I will put in for the 1975 '74 Victory Leaders card, the '85 OPC Fitzgerald, the Tom Henke Fleer All-Star, the '21 Archives Nate Pearson and the '62 Hal Jones.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's gotten insane! I never thought it's blow up like this!

DeleteThey're yours!
DeleteAnother impressive haul! My initial comment was going to be "I'm sure you'll have no problem moving some of that vintage and oddball stuff" and you already have!
ReplyDeleteI can use the 85OPC Tanana, 74T Expos* and Pirates**. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAll claimed cards have been mailed out!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I mailed your cards out yesterday. Incidentally, the '86 Fred Lynn, produced by Topps, is technically a Woolworths card.
DeleteI went with how TCDB has them listed. Looking at the card, there's no mention of Woolworths on it. Further digging shows that while it was sold there, it wasn't done so exclusively. Ah, the joy of oddball sets!
DeleteI did not know that!
