Alex - That Teddy Bear was the same type of Teddy I had when I was a little girl in the early 70's. It was my first Teddy Bear and a gift from my grandmother who loved going to estate sales and swap meets. It was taken away from me a few years later because I was told I was too old to carry around a Teddy, it disappeared one day while I was attending 1st grade. I cried for weeks after that. I was bought a new Teddy bear but it was never the same. I still hold grudges about the "parenting" I received, but seeing that Teddy in your video was such a wonderful treat. I am glad to see another one made it through all these years. Warms my heart and I am thankful you showed it!
Oh that is cruel! My 6 year old granddaughter takes her teddy everywhere. In fact he is actually her mother’s teddy, and her mother (my daughter) always had him on her bed, even as an adult.
@@franceswatts4001 I kept every special toy my son had growing up. I never wanted him to have those kinds of memories too. I want his kids to play with them someday and maybe their kids too
Hit those marbles with a black light and separate out the ones that glow. And Siam became Thailand in 1939 so Bob was right on the age...some seriously cool stuff!
Awesome collection of various items that are really desirable.. What a great find that antique Rolex watch this is certainly nice to have.. Stay safe all.. Much love from Indiana.. 👍💕🔥⚾😷
These boxes held some amazingly beautiful finds! It’s wonderful to know these treasures are still out there in the world. They sure don’t make them like this any more.
What a fabulous haul...I think your silver tea pot is actually a coffee pot. Milk glass collectors LOVE marbles. Lots made from left over milk glass, and slag glass.
very impressive mix of obscure items, enjoyed seeing all of it, the Ray Gun reminds me of Burk Rogers and Ming. William Jennings Bryan, " Scopes trial" counsel
I love Savage Shoes! My daughter is 30 and I kept her favorite shoes we bought for he from Savage when she was 2 or 3. Beautiful pink and purple leather shoes, on sale for 15 dollars....it was a total splurge that we really couldn't afford.
Wooooo whooooo! Score ,score ,score ..... A incredible collection with a Lifetime of memories . They all landed in the right hands ! Congratulations on all those great finds !
It is so exciting to see what treasures await inside each box! The breadth of your knowledge is amazing! I get that feeling of anticipation just like when I was young visiting relatives with my mother and a box of toys would be placed on the floor for my brothers and me to explore! 😍😍😍
Avery exciting time going through the boxes! Great there were many memories and a good return for your investment. I used to play marbles with the boys in the very early 60s in the dirt on my stomach with the boys during recess.
That Rolex is a cool find! Probably worth 2-3k. Looks like cal 1210, ref. N62960, movement signed Mentres Rolex SA, Geneva Swiss 17 jewels, within a rolled gold and steel case. Pretty neat!
I'm from Preston (now part of Cambridge, Ontario) and grew up very close to the Savage Shoe factory. Cambridge had several shoe factories and I used to wear shoes from Savage when I was a kid. Great to see a box in such great shape!
Yes, definitely from Marks and Spencer in the UK. The tin looks at least 50 years old. Their modern tins are all beautifully decorated. The St Michael trademark hasn't been used for many years.
That St Michael tin is definitely Marks and Spencer and most certainly a biscuit tin Because of its lack of decoration and perfunctory logo makes me think that it was possibly used in store from a time years and years ago when M&S used to sell loose groceries like biscuits and you could buy as many or as few as you liked without being restricted by pack sizes. All these trendy stores today where you can buy by weight seem to think they invented this method of shopping - nope your Victorian /Edwardian ancestors - right up to pre supermarket would recognise this way to shop
@@lynnedelacy2841 Yes, you're dead right. I don't remember M&S actually selling loose biscuits but our local grocer did. You voted buy a bag of your favourite or a mixed assortment, all wrapped in brown paper bags fastened with a twist at the corners 😁
@Jane Austin I’m straining to remember but I think they did and that’s exactly the type of tin the biscuits would be in, bigger I think than the usual retail tin
So much fun! Really great finds; this is my favorite unboxing of treasures I've seen in a while. Loved that hat with all the pins, the tobacco cards, '30's art deco toys and decals and the big mohair teddy bear. Wish I could come up and see you and your wonderful store. Thank you for sharing the unboxings with us. I enjoy every one!
No baseball in that pack as they are English cigarettes. My dad used to smoke Players cigarettes and they had a sailor in an old fashioned uniform on the front and dad used his dad magic by rolling up a small piece of cigarette paper and wetting it slightly, putting it in the sailors mouth having made a hole in the pack to put it in It then got lit and it looked like the sailor was smoking ! So exciting!! Players slogan was ‘Players please’ I went on a tour of the Queen Mary in the 1960s in Southampton I think, before it was sold abroad
I came in to the shop as you were cutting out all those stickers from the album. Nice to see all the other stuff you got that day as well! AND THANK YOU TO BOB THE BOTTLEMAN FOR THE PHONE!!! It works amazingly well! Brings me right back to my childhood :) 👣
William Jennings Bryan (March 19, 1860 - July 26, 1925) was an American orator and politician. Beginning in 1896, he emerged as a dominant force in the Democratic Party, running three times as the party's nominee for President of the United States in the 1896, 1900, and 1908 elections. He also served in the House of Representatives and as the Secretary of State under Woodrow Wilson. in office March 5, 1913 - June 9, 1915
What fun, felt like a session with the folks, looking through boxes of treasures and listening to their stories. Imagine a teacher having artifacts like these to introduce the next topic of study. That would get them to put down their phones!
These are my favorite videos Alex- searching through treasure boxes and finding old toys. I just recently picked up the Minic Brewery tractor trailer- with key and the original beer barrels. The Dinky Toys you have are not all pre-war. As a general rule, if the hubs are ridged- they are post-war. If the hubs are smooth, they are pre-war. Thanks for sharing your finds!
That is such a cool collection of things that you picked up this time. One of the earliest collections that I think I have seen you unbox. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤
I would love to scan all those stickers and matchbook covers! Just love those graphics! Would make great cards, posters or T-shirt’s Just have to check if they’re still copyright protected. Fun video once again Alexander!
Greetings from Clay County, Missouri ! YES, some EXCELLENT finds today ! ESPECIALLY the MINIC semi ! William Jennings Bryan ( NO relation ) was 3 time Democratic Presidential nominee in 1896, 1900 and 1908 . I tried to sell my Grandmother's marbles at a garage ( ga-RADGE ? ) sale. I was asking $20 for ALL probably a hundred , or so A lady (?) comes by and offers me $5. I say, "no, thanks" She says, "you don't even know what they are called !" I replied, " Yes, I do. They are called MINE. Kick rocks ." I gave them to my wife . OK TA ! ATB !! & HH !!! 293 thumbs UP ! i non c buy 4 NOW 4 more of those boxes
The paintings done on those old magazines remind me of the Saturday Evening Post and how those drawings or I can't quite say it right but they became collectable and the painting or picture or just what in playboy centerfolds... there is a connection between all of this stuff and values. What a find and what a way to advertise the finds that you pick.. clever
Great to have you show that collectables are intresting, historical, and beautiful representstions of man's creative genious. Let's keep these things around and keep you shop owners busy. Trying myself to keep clocks relevant for the past 50 years! Mechanical ones that is
That was a great selection of items; thank you for including me in the video, it was a lot of fun!
Now I have a face to the name!! 😎😎
@@jeno264 I have been in a couple of other videos too 😁
I smile every time you say Tickety Boo lol.
You found more interesting items in one short episode than "American Pickers" has found collectively in ten seasons! Keep up the great work!
no F
So true!
You should clean/mount/use that bell in your store. It would look great on your penny counter.
The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat, side by side on the window sat…. This was one of those poem books they make for kids similar to The Owl and the Pussycat.
Such wonderful finds!
You are incredibly pleasant to listen to 😀
And always interesting
He is knowledgeable. Pleasant voice!
Oh what a fun video to watch! Such neat and old toys. So many things.
Unbelievable. Love the pipes.
Those and the holders were quite unique.
Good morning crew, made even better by the fact that I am drinking my coffee watching my favorite UA-cam creator rummage through treasure 😆
I love these videos its like rummaging through old boxes by proxy
Wow you found some amazing items for your store in this pick,

That's very sad, people worried about such silly stuff then. I guess every era has crazy theories on raising children. Sorry that happened to you.
Yes, sorry this happened to you. That kind of stuff is so hard to process at such a young age. Glad you found some joy in seeing a bear like yours 🙂👌🏼
Oh that is cruel! My 6 year old granddaughter takes her teddy everywhere. In fact he is actually her mother’s teddy, and her mother (my daughter) always had him on her bed, even as an adult.

Me as well
He sells the stuff he finds... shoot him an email 🤓😎
My mom had True Story magazines. Hadn't thought of them in ages☺️
@@differenttakethanmost I'd be afraid of what the shipping would be down here to NY ;)
I love the squeak your door has. Just like ole time stores I remember...hope you never grease it.😊
Wow, what an interesting collection of items! Alex you certainly do get to have a lot of fun.
Those art deco playing cards are amazing! 😍

Nice to see Dave - well as much as we could with the mask on.
Thanks Robyn! 😁
That was fun seeing what’s in all the mystery boxes! You got some great loot. Finding a Rolex was nice too. 👍
I couldn’t believe Alex found that Rolex, i had joked with him a moment earlier about a Rolex possibly being in one of the boxes…ha ha ha.
very impressive mix of obscure items, enjoyed seeing all of it, the Ray Gun reminds me of Burk Rogers and Ming. William Jennings Bryan, " Scopes trial" counsel
This was one of the most fun hauls you have unboxed for us. Really nice fun things.
Some really interesting finds.
This is the best treasure finds I've seen you get!
Absolutely beautiful stuff! My mouth was agape.
What a find!
I have a large match book collection and mine are all intact with the matches still in them. 😃
Great Haul, reminds me of the saying "I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it."
What fun boxes to go through with you !!
Epic finds, ♥️
That was very cool to see the Mickey Mouse shoe box. My father in law worked at Savage Shoe Company. The building is now condos.
Savage Shoes in Edmonton? On Whyte Avenue?

Probably everyone wanted to know it’s value

The St Michael silver coloured tin with all of the books in it is from Marks and Spencer in the UK I think! Likely a biscuit tin 😊

These boxes are such great finds. If it wasn't for you, many of us would never see any of these gorgeous historic items.
I was waiting for a genie to come out of the dinner ware for some reason. Cool antiques.
So much fun! Really great finds; this is my favorite unboxing of treasures I've seen in a while.

Wow! Flushing is the town right next to our town! Great small town. Loved seeing the People's State Bank bag. How cool!! Hello from Michigan
I sure enjoyed this episode. My fingers wouldn't stay still, I wanted to dig in the boxes, too. Fun!
I worked for Western Airlines… so sweet to see

And hardly no one in here is talking about it. That watch is worth thousands.
And it’s funny too, as I had joked with Alex just a moment earlier about a Rolex being in the boxes…lol
@@patmccccc 2-3k I'd say! :) Nice find but not like a Daytona or GMT...now THOSE would be a heck of a find! :D

Great stick for the other new half of your store!!!
