Get cozy, because we're going to be here for awhile. We're charging into the
new year with the biggest update yet, thanks to 11 trades featuring over 150
cards! I can feel it - this is going to be an incredible year!
We'll kick things off with a trade that was pending as of the last update,
courtesy of the famous Greg (Night Owl Cards). Greg snagged a quartet of cards (the post of which also shows off the card he won for being the 200th Time
Travel Trade), and sent back a nice variety of cards:
Another pending trade comes from
TCDB memeber JF. This was a good sized
trade with a Canadian who has time traveled with us before. Admittedly a good
amount of cards from the "overproduction era", but don't overlook that sweet
vintage hockey card!
Trade #3 Jeff (Wax Pack Wonders) did something I never thought would happen - he traded back for cards he
himself had previously sent me! I love the reason too - a
Hall Of Famer frankenset! That works for me, because I got some great vintage and reprints from the
deal!
For the 2nd straight month, I completed a trade with Ken through the
TCDB. This return consisted of mostly
1950's cards. Is it me or could Cole and Oravets pass as brothers?
Sometimes I'm just overwhelmed by the generosity of my fellow collectors. Greg
(The Collective Mind)
joined the fray with his first Time Travel Trade. I sent him 3 cards. he sent
me a lot of cards from the 1970 set:
Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life!)
checks in with
his monthly trade. Thanks to him, the 1975 Topps set gets a nice little boost:
On the TCDB, I keep the Time Travel cards in a separate collection from my
personal collection. Unfortunately, the web site doesn't distinguish
between these collections when someone is looking at cards marked for trade.
Occasionally I'll get someone who offers something from my want lists
(personal collection) in exchange for something on my trade lists (Time Travel
project). Such was the case with a trader named Chris, who requested a 2019
Derek Jeter card I had in the stack and offered two cards from my want
list:
Obviously I made the trade, but since I wanted to keep these cards I made a
Time Travel Trade with myself. Instead of Sano and Bell, I'm adding these
cards to the project:
Mike was another TCDB member who offered up personal wants for Time Travel cards, but since he wanted vintage I made a counter-offer. Fortunately he had older vintage on his For Trade list, and after explaining the project a deal was struck for these cards:
Long time blog reader Ken emailed me and claimed 31 cards! That establishes a new high for most cards ever mailed out in a Time Travel trade. He also obliterated the record for cards received, sending in a generous but insane 61 cards!
We start out with a sizable lot of last year's Heritage set:
Along with some great vintage:
And finishing up with a bunch of football cards:
It seems only fitting that the last featured trade from this epic post circles back to the lead-off hitter, Greg (Night Owl Cards). His latest trade (which also happens to be his 20th Time Travel trade!) features a trio of 70's cards, including a few Buffalo Bills:
You have to love that Mario Clark card - there just aren't enough cards depicting athletes keeping themselves hydrated!
Whew! There you have it, so many great new cards. My eternal thanks to all of my trade partners!
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!
