You have good, loyal fans Jon. Nice community you've built here.

[@thegoldentroll]

Thanks!

[@thepastisalive]

You guys are the best!

[@philinthablanxify]

Opening old packs always hits the spot!

[@andyfranklin5004]

I always enjoy you and your brother commenting about the random players you didn't like for one reason or another. Kids are funny,

[@frankfinelli6364]

THAT RGB Tape is a BETA not a VHS !! Super rare to find those

[@PennySleeveSteve]

Mailbag Mondays are always awesome!

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks Steve!

[@kurtsnyder7546]

That ragtime boos VHS is sweet!!! I can't recall if I saw this. That is a treasure! Thanks Jon!

[@patcuff3781]

Love seeing the RGB tapes. I only had one of them, "A Fright at the Opera" and yes, I watched it every day, multiple times a day.

[@dwschmitt]

Iggle Video....brings me back, man. Friday evenings in the elementary school days picking up an SNES game and a movie for the weekend. Didn't get better than that.

[@SwanhillCards108]

Another amazing Mailbag Monday! Thank you so much.

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks for watching, Swanhill!

[@fikebobby1]

Dude that tape was a Beta tape … hope you can still watch it

[@beerbratscheese1230]

Caught that myself. Might be more collectable because of rarity, but likely unwatchable.

[@MontanaGman]

Those 3D cards are pretty cool. Another set of cards I've never seen.

[@PushnButtons62]

Very nice Mailday, bro! Love the Jeter, Bo, and Freddie rookies!

[@stuclach]

I've never seen those Dimension III cards. Very cool. Enjoy your VHS tapes.

[@andrewrossi7164]

Awesome stuff Jon, I still have my Bo Jackson 88 topps rookie from when I was a kid, one of my favorite cards 👍

[@scottstyles1963]

Thanks for the trip down nostalgia road. It's been a long time since I've ripped a few of the products like the d3.

[@nevercold808]

Very cool of those viewers to send all that stuff to ya, Jon.

[@thepastisalive]

It’s a great community! I always return the gesture when I come across things that I think others may like.

[@elbertgober9356]

My dad use to sale cards at a flea market. I remember these well.

[@jaredbonner6344]

VHS will make a comeback in the collector community!

[@soxbigdog]

I remember a lot of grocery stores and other random stores offering video rentals at one point or another... there was a local one in VA called Farm Fresh that did video rentals for only like a few months, and we had rented a movie, and when we went to return it, the had stopped... they told us to just keep the tape lol

[@MrUmaguma]

I was "Stoked" too Jon lol....Great vid dude

[@BuPan]

That Logan O'Hoppe is a Heritage Error card , they purposefully put in different error types in there, like swapped colors, missing information, that one I believe is missing the city name

[@floydfanTN]

pretty much, I dont think its considered a parallel, but rather I think they had all the Angles cards in 2023 Heritage have no city just like the 74 cards did.

[@paulyd2406]

Jon... You're The Man as I Love Dimension 3 Cards!! The packs were $5 though and as a kid age 11 going on age 12 in June I couldn't afford the packs SO I always wimped out and bought 1995 score instead; my rich asian good childhood friend would slip out a hundo n always get a box of the cards and GAH looking back took full advantage of me as I was obsessed with the cards n I had to trade him literally so many cards just for a pack 🤦 Oh well great trip down memorylane man and some sweet mail!!

[@blindjimmyblaze1655]

I always thought that Bo Jackson was such a clean looking card. Really dig it.

[@Nerdsplayingcards]

You brought out memories of the last scene of that movie 7

[@thecomet3206]

Awesome video thanks for sharing nice bernie williams🎉

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks for watching!

[@altonmahaffeethesleeplessd1229]

Glad you back !

[@Toytanium]

Another fine video - thanks Jon

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks Bryan!

[@yo420ia]

I can only imagine your face when you went to put that tape in your VCR😂 priceless. Keep an eye out for Beta players at the flea markets.

[@caughtashot]

Great video Joe!

[@robertwilhite9821]

Another great video Jon, Them Topps Dimension 3 looked good, I remember them but never bought any.

[@PatMcCarthy420]

I’ve been buying a lot of VHS tapes recently. My kids love them and they’re cheap. They’re fascinated by the mechanical nature of the VCR 😂

[@dfuller81]

I was in Goodwill a couple weeks ago and saw a teenage kid loading up on VHS. It’s wild.

[@tangovictor7407]

PRO STARS for the win !!!!

[@gillyazie55]

Good stuff! 😊

[@tomadey6534]

Another great video. Keep up the good work Jon

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks Tom!

[@jasonmcclain5124]

Nice pack selection.

[@debcamp2359]

❤ all that u do! Is it crazy that i got most excited about Jeeter, 90 Donruss and 92 topps packs?

[@thepastisalive]

Aww and those are two I didn’t open! Thanks for watching, Deb!

[@adrianangold4441]

never seen the dimension, super cool! need that Ozzie!

[@ethansimonton5892]

I've always liked the Ted Williams cards

[@robertherm8915]

Awesome video

[@Mikeygee99]

Woot woot! Sweet 3D Bagwell

[@mundosworld7022]

I would like to see you rip open some comic card packs !!

[@Rubberneck1965]

I've had a box of Dimension stashed away for opening. 5 cards per pack tells me I likely won't be pulling a complete set.

[@AshMorton]

Good old vintage stuff.

[@jaybarnes8034]

I love 1991 Fleet Baseball

[@ronaldhoenow7784]

Love a random CAT woman rookie😎

[@jetman80pops]

FYI you can get VHS tapes graded

[@stevezeppieri]

EPIC MAIL DAY. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU WATCHED THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS SINCE UPLOADING THIS? Lol

[@marcfromasburypark6058]

Awesome

[@themotuwolf]

I've never seen dimension III before. Yikes. No wonder they didn't last.

[@GeeEm1313]

Trevor May is on KZbin and he is hilarious.

[@szylak]

I have 3,400 Ted Williams 1994 cards in my Inventory.

[@BeyondMusic420]

i hope you got a betamax player for that video

[@Drew-dd5nh]

Hey John, your page says, THE PAST IS AI... Skynet < People

[@mitchjohnson4970]

I'm trying to find vcr dvd combo with a working remote

[@README27]

As a kid I would of dreamed of a reality where people sent me random free things / presents all the time. As a low income / poor adult I would never allow it.

[@thepastisalive]

If someone wants to send something that they don’t want or have a use for, I’ll gladly accept it. I return the gesture of goodwill by sending free things and cards to people that I know would appreciate them more than myself.

[@criteriumracer]

!

[@thepastisalive]

Thank you Lee!
