Trapped In Time: Remnants Of The 201st - 205th Trades

I started doing these "Remnant" posts over 4 years ago, mainly because I felt the Time Travel Trading stack was getting too big, and it was a good time to clear out some of the stagnant cards that no one seemed to want. We're through the first 200 trades now, and well over 200 cards have been cleared out. The size of the stack however, has more than doubled since that first post. I've accepted that fate, it's the cost of doing business with a generous community that routinely gives more than it receives. Still, I press on, as there are many many cards who have been hanging around unclaimed for over 3 years...

 

Trade #201 John (Adventures Of A Baseball Card Collector)

Traded 10/19/22: 1959 Topps #9 Paul Giel, 1959 Topps #251 Clete Boyer, 1960 Topps #548 Don Mincher (RC), 1984 O-Pee-Chee #16 Omar Moreno, 1985 O-Pee-Chee #21 Dave Concepcion, 1989 ProCards Triple A #544 Jay Buhner, 2000 Topps #228 Mariano Rivera (WS), 2008 Topps New York Yankees #8 Jason Giambi, 2015 Stadium Club #15 Adrian Beltre

We start things off with a pair from John (Adventures Of A Baseball Card Collector), including a beautiful card from 1939! I mean, look at it next to the 1975 card - I don't know what ink they used back then, but it's impressive! As I usually do with pre-WWII era cards, in the very likely event no one comes forth offering an older card in return, the Sweet Sultan will remain in the stack as a reminder how cool it really is that we can still enjoy things from so long ago.

You know how I mentioned generous collectors you send more than they receive? That's Brendan Hart (The View From The Third Floor) to a "T" - He always adds a few extra cards to the stack. I'm pretty sure at least a quarter of the cards currently available in the Time Travel Trading project have come from him. Maybe if I'm really bored some day I'll do the math, but for now let's see if anyone will rescue these poor cards from 1981 Donruss and 1979 Topps.

Finally, a couple of cards from a leftover TCDB trade. "Youngblood and Watson" sounds like a 70's cop show, doesn't it? 

 

These card will be retired if no one wants them. It's up to you now to give them happy new homes!
