    Hi George. My mom used a laundry sprinkler in the 1940s/50s that was a cork and metal top that fit into a glass soda bottle (Dr. Pepper, of course, being from Texas).

    Not as bad as I thought it would be watching with CC waitng for new puter....remember ironing with a sprinkler on pop bottle for mom...top of sheets, tablecloths, dad's hankercheifs, and pillowcases,,and we sprinkled them and put them in a plastic zip bag right before doing..lol...wash, dry, sprinkle, iron...like fixing my niece's hair for dance recital when her mom was gone...all looks just wonderful and fun...thanks so much you two.

    The Willys Autombile Company's claim to fame was the original military-issue Jeep, made in huge numbers during WW2. Surprisingly, I learned recently that the "Willys" name is actually pronounced "Will-iss," like "What you talkin' bout Willis?" 😊😊😊
    Ive been an auto-ficionado for 40 years and only learned the correct pronunciation recently.

    • @TheAntiqueNomad

      That's interesting! I've heard it mispronounced (and have done so myself) forever, I too have been into the car thing for decades and didn't now better. I thought the story about how the Jeep ended up getting the contract and the Bantam was forgotten is interesting too

    Good evening, George! Those opera glasses were something I would go after. There was a floor lamp close to the blue boudoir lamps that I liked. The old traps always get my attention. I'd like to have a collection of those and of old mouse traps. Those looked like fun places to browse and shop. Thanks for taking us along!

      Hi there, my friend! I liked those a lot. The floor lamp, I should've pointed that out, it was pretty neat too...that space was particularly interesting to me. Interesting that you go for traps, I do too, I don't necessarily like their function but I think they look cool! If you ever have reason to go up the Mississippi, Cape Girardeau is a good stop for antiquing. Thanks for coming along!

    I saw the wall and knew you were in Cape!!! There was a restaurant right across from the river where I had pickled black eyed peas and loved them!!! Had lunch there with my mom many times!!! OMG I remember old Main Street!! There was an old Woolworths and it still had the old soda fountain!! My dad would take me Christmas shopping on Main St for my mother… I am Originally from Memphis but we lived in Cape when I was 9-12… out in the country where we’d be gone in the woods and creeks all day long!!

    I’ve been going to Cape G at least once a year for the last twelve years, and somehow have never made it to an antique store! There was a man there who decided, around 2009, to reproduce a 1923 circular sock knitting machine that he found on eBay. It has become quite popular, and many sock machine knitters make their way there every spring to get together with other “crankers”. I’ve often wondered if you ever come across old sock machines in your travels. I never have (here in Nebraska), but a friend in Pennsylvania often does. Maybe this spring I’ll go a day early and try to get some antiquing done.

    New store - if you get a new one, go on opening day., Odds are good some dealers put in some really good stuff. It's worked in thrift stores too. The last grand opening I hit was a total bust, but other times you're batting clean-up and they lob you a 25mph "fast"ball. (and it goes out into the parking lot over the center field fence!)
