Alexander - Welcome to Piano World. My comments apply to all four of your posted videos. 1) Considering you have only been playing for three years, you are doing quite well. 2) From a purely visual aspect, it appears that you live in an alternate universe - or perhaps we are watching your reflection in a mirror. What's going on??

Camera is on the right hand side. I think it may have reversed the image ?

Yes, the young Hank Aaron was one of the great left-handed sluggers for the Milwaukee Braves in the '50's! One of the most famous Topps Card mistakes -- wonder what it sells for now?

A quick google shows: anywhere from $40 to $1400, depending on condition (and the chutzpah of the seller, not to mention if they're really intending to sell it or just keep dreaming). And y'know, about value and "condition," it's also that way with any pieces that we play -- it's really the same as Horowitz or Rubinstein or Kissin or anybody, the condition is just different. BTW, were you in Wisconsin in Aaron's days there? (I was there for a little bit when he came back.)

(You probably need to know your baseball a little to get this....) Obviously whoever developed this photo got Hank's image reversed. Perhaps that explains why the card is worth so much !! Or perhaps not....... Actually what immediately struck me about the video was that the image seemed out of sync with the sound. Then the more I stared at it, the more I realized WHY it was out of sync. Alexander - you have a special video camera. And a very nice Shigeru Kawai !!

Hi, Mark! Yes, I grew up in Racine, WI in the '50s (about 30 miles south of Milwaukee), and saw several games at the old County Stadium. The Braves moved from Boston to Milwaukee in 1953, and Henry Aaron joined as a rookie the following year. They had a very strong hitting team, with Eddie Mathews, Wes Covington, and Joe Adcock in addition to Aaron. Brings back VERY old memories!

Hi, Mark! Yes, I grew up in Racine, WI in the '50s (about 30 miles south of Milwaukee).... I know it well, or at least I drove past it any number of times on my way to and from Chicago from Milwaukee. .....and saw several games at the old County Stadium. Saw my share too, but the Brewers, not the Braves. The Braves moved from Boston to Milwaukee in 1953, and Henry Aaron joined as a rookie the following year. They had a very strong hitting team, with Eddie Mathews, Wes Covington, and Joe Adcock in addition to Aaron. Brings back VERY old memories! .....and for me too, because I started following the game right before one of those times that the Yanks played your Braves in the World Series, and that was half of the lineup. (OK, four-ninths....) Sorry for the digression, Sandy -- now back to Chopin maybe (whom I like more than baseball).

I recorded it with yeti Mike plugged into Apple Mac for the video. I will look at the apple settings but I don't think I did anything other than press the start button so I will need to investigate. I was thinking of investing in a little camera with decent mica to make better videos. I'm from Uk Scotsman in ENgland so I don't know much about baseball but I did go and see Baltmore regularly one summer in late eighties when I was doIng some studying there. Cal RIpkin I remember was the star man. They didn't win many games in those days.
