Time Travel Trading Update #83


With Thanksgiving coming up this week, now more than ever it good to take time and be thankful for all the good things in our life, big and small. One of the things I'm thankful for is obviously you reading this. Without your support, this crazy little idea I had has grown to become the most viewed series of posts on my blog. Thank you to everyone who has traded with me and made the Time Travel Trading Project as big as it is! I appreciate you!

Before we gorge ourselves on turkey, how about a little cardboard feast for the eyes?
 
Chris (The Collector) sets the table this time around. He picked up a dozen cards, and in return sent a cornucopia of cards from all 4 major sports leagues:


Next on our plate is an offering from Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life!). I'll bet Bo is thankful that he was able to perfectly remove a vintage sticker affixed to a vintage card! I'm thankful I don't have to worry about that with any of the cards he sent to me!
 

One more trade before the tryptophan kicks in (Aside: That's actually a myth. The turkey isn't what makes us sleepy...) Brendan (The View From The Third Floor) fills our hobby-devouring bellies with another great trade!

I am very thankful for these three gentlemen, as well as those who have pending trades and have made trades in the past! You are all awesome!
 
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!

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: 274 (2 pending)
Unique trading partners: 71

Number of cards mailed out: 1,483
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1910-11

Number of cards received: 2,194
Year of oldest card received: 1890
 
 
May your week be full of blessings!
