Trapped In Time: Remnants Of The 121st - 125th Trades


 
It's time to cull some more poor wayward cards who have failed to generate interest amongst the time travelers. I have 8 cards whose fate is in your hands!
 
Trade #122 Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life)
Traded 09/28/21: 1982 Fleer Team Action (football) #49 Giving Second Effort, 1961 Topps #6 Ed Roebuck
 
Received 10/02/21:
  • 1978 O-Pee-Chee #106 Wayne Gross (ASR) (See Trade #128)
  • 1960 Topps #61 Eddie Kasko
 
 
Bo (Baseball Cards Come To Life!) provided this wonderful card from 1960. I know that the older cards are harder to trade because cards from the 1950's aren't often in people's trade boxes, but I was rather surprised this card didn't get claimed. It's got so many great elements to it - the background, the glasses, the old school Mr. Red logo - it's just an all-around pleasing card.
 
Trade #124 Jeff (Wax Pack Wonders)
Traded 10/22/21: 1965 Topps #87 Nelson Mathews, 1968 Topps #44 Frank Kostro, 1968 Topps #181 Jerry Zimmerman, 1969 Topps #139 Andy Kosco, 1972 Topps #2 Ray Culp
 
Received 10/23/21:
  • 1970 Topps #252 Lowell Palmer (RC) (See Trade #188)
  • 1970 Topps #287 Fred Talbot
  • 1968 Topps #15 Ron Hunt
  • 1967 Topps #399 Al Worthington (See Trade #220)
  • 1965 Topps #149 Wayne Schurr (See Trade #283)
  • 1964 Topps #421 Camilo Carreon (See Trade #301)
 

Next are cards from Jeff, formerly of the blog Wax Pack Wonders. Cards from the 1970 Topps set have a large footprint in the Time Travel Trade stack, with a whopping 73 cards currently. I'm not sure why. 1968 Topps has a more modest 14 cards by comparison.
 
Traded 10/22/21:  1956 Topps #90 Cincinnati Redlegs TC, VAR, 1956 Topps #103 Willy Miranda VAR, 1956 Topps #138 Johnny Antonelli, 1956 Topps #211 Murry Dickson, 1956 Topps #284 Ike Delock, 1957 Topps #212 Rocco Colavito RC, UER, 1957 Topps #249 Dave Pope, 1961 Fleer Baseball Greats #56 Dolf Luque, 1961 Topps #256 Billy Hoeft, 1964 Topps #18 Billy O'Dell, 1964 Topps #45 Milt Pappas, 1964 Topps - Coins #7 Frank Malzone, 1966 Topps #575 Earl Wilson

  • 1955 Bowman (football) #9 Don Stonesifer
  • 1955 Bowman (football) #29 Bucko Kilroy (See Trade #155)
  • 1955 Topps All-American (football) #46 Arnie Lassman (See Trade #280)
 
 
Finally, we have some great 50's cards from a TCDB member named Ken. I won't be disappointed if these baseball cards end up in my collection, but I'd really like to find a taker for the 1955 football card! 

The power is yours! All it takes is an older card to trade!
