Time travel to 2023

It's a yearly tradition at Diamond Jesters to add a pack of the new year's flagship set to the Time Travel Trade stack, and for the last few years it's been my tradition to make the leftovers from that pack my first cards of the new year.

The bottom of the cards really stand out to me in this year's design. Unfortunately we are back to small names on the front, but the large team logo and headshot provide a little visual interest. Otherwise, these feel like the same kinds of cards Topps has been putting out for the past ten years or so.

I picked a couple more baseball cards I happened to need.
Most of what I have been picking lately is football. Here are a bunch of stars from the 90s and 00s. (And one from the 80s.)
Lots more 70s cards. Some big names and great photos from the era.

  2. I recognize a couple of those cards. Also, it looks like the mustache is making a comeback ~
