if i could turn back time

if i could go back in time, i wouldn't want to do anything that might screw things up on a global scale like tell christopher columbus that there is no shortcut to india. instead, i would do small, selfish things like sneak a peek at my ancestors and invest in some stocks. i would also pick up multiple copies of cards like roberto clemente's 1955 topps rookie card and george brett's 1975 topps rookie card.  while i do have two of the latter, the former will likely never be a part of my collection, but i do have this card

as well as this one

that came my way from diamond jesters as part of his time travel trades.

both cards, as well as this dean chance card

are from 2001 topps archives - a set that i was all in to back when it was released. i selected these cards because i am not totally certain that i completed the set back then, and i'd like to make sure to have the complete run of archives/all-time fan favorites from 2001 through 2005.

i also claimed this 1957 topps card

for my set build. it's the penultimate card in the set, and adding it brings me down to needing just 58 cards. my set is 85.7% complete!

thanks for the trade matt!
