    That flesh colored container is a late 90s urine basin. Mostly used in floor settings with most hospitals during that time. Johnson and Johnson and the former boundtree were the leading manufacturers. As far as volume it was intended to handle one large void of approximately 500ccs. Glad you have it! True piece of medical history.

    Man, I just love to see those wacky prices from the 1980's. Those (now) $1 cards in screw downs. That binder is boss! I think that is a facsimile in red, I seem to remember they had promo cards that were facsimile by example. But I never know if I should trust my memory in my old age.

    That was insane to me. Thanks for the vid. It took me back to when i was a kid and collected so many of those cards. I had duplicates of them all. I was looking up values and pausing when i saw a certain card... What a deal for you. I guess the way you sell them being ungraded is 1-$5 bins at a show right? I saw a bunch that in a PSA 9 they're worth $20-40. But after grading fees you lose or break even at best in the end so not worth it. Only try with ones that might 10 and give you your $125 back in 1 card and the rest are free... Pretty cool, thanks again.

      No, you’re not wrong in remember that! I don’t know if Beckett made them, but they existed because you can still find them online. Usually a lot of people nowadays refer to tcdb.com (Trading Card Database) to put together sets and catalogue their collections. You can narrow sets down to team on there as well.

    Question: does UA-cam penalize UA-camrs for having videos over a certain length? Or do viewers tend to just not like long videos? I know UA-cam shorts are a thing now because people have the attention spans of gnats nowadays. So maybe I just answered my question.
    I feel like I keep seeing UA-camrs, whether they’re ripping or going through collections, emphasizing that they are going to keep the video as short as they can and basically “rush through” the cards. Then you check the comments and it’s full of “you missed this card” comments. Literally watched a guy rip the new Topps series one and made an emphasis on “rushing through the base to keep the video short” and literally skipped over like 4 Elly rookies and missed a SP lol idk for me that takes away from the video. I don’t watch to just see hits, I just enjoy cards. I enjoy the long videos where people spend awhile thoroughly going through card collections like some of your videos from a year or two ago!
    By no means am I saying you’re rushing through or anything like that. I was just curious about why people want to make the videos short and hustling through the content as opposed to just taking your time and letting it flow more naturally. Again, not saying you’re doing this, just curious! I think you do an amazing job at paying homage to the beauty of the hobby and I love the attention you give to the players no one knows haha

    • @thepastisalive
      @thepastisalive  4 місяці тому +1

      Studies have shown that people’s attention spans are geared more towards “shorts” these days and hence why TikTok is so popular. Most people don’t want to watch long videos apparently and it’s typically always best to try and keep UA-cam videos below 20 mins to keep the viewers engaged. I know what you’re saying though, if the video keeps my interest, I’ll watch for well over that. I’m sure I’ll make more videos like that in the future though. Thank you for continuing to watch.
