    23:33 "Do this, don't do that
    Can't you read the sign?
    Love the sound of rain on a metal roof, but not the feel of metal on my teeth metal cups hurt my teeth.
    They did keep the Kool aid cold in the summertime though. I know I can't be alone with this memory.
    Whenever I see the metal colored cups I think of summers being a child when the days seemed to be
    so much longer and life was forever.

    Hello George,
    I really enjoyed watching this episode.
    Also, I owned the same Avon small luggage in the early seventies,
    you bought back memories from my college days as I was a par-time Avon Representative trying to earn a few dollars to fill my gas tank so I could commute to school!
    Now days one can conveniently take many classes on line at anytime.
    How times have changed!
    Thank you for sharing
    Arrivederci!

    Hi George @27:53 the basket looking purse to the left in reddish-brown, on Bottom would say longaberger, its called the sisters bag, sells used for $125 and if found new in box $250. Its part of the. New generations idea. They made purses instead of baskets and drove the business in the ground. But they are high quality and still very marketable.
    Very happy you and Xeno made it home safely.
    Some of the dinnerware you bought, Port Marion keeps showing up in the Vegas Goodwill stores but most of our friends there don't like to sell plates because of shipping. I'm seeing that there's definitely a limitation to the all online business model with the high cost of shipping and of course the risk with shipping.
    Don't know if you have heard Danni is closing her store this month. Lots of building issues that the landlord wouldn't want to fix and just a lot of factors. But too bad. It was an interesting model.
    I wish you and Xeno a Very Merry Christmas and we'll see you in the next live I make it to.

    • @TheAntiqueNomad
      @TheAntiqueNomad  Рік тому +2

      Hi there! So glad you tipped me off, I did not know Longaberger made purses too and I should go back and look at that, I left one other thing I meant to buy as well. Portmerion is great stuff, I would think most people who would buy out of Vegas would be west coast because shipping just makes it prohibitive otherwise.
      I did watch Danni's news, and I'm sorry that it didn't work out, I know the concept is very near and dear to her but she had trouble with the landlord from the moment she moved in and that was not good.
      Merry Christmas and we'll hope to see you in a live soon!

    You mentioned a couple of times about cutting mirrors for replacement. Having worked for my former in laws glass shop, We would have some better pieces remirrored in Louisville at the same Disco Ball maker that you have mentioned before. They don’t work with many people but on occasion will redo a mirror once they get enough in queue or it fits into their production schedule. We would save up a bunch to bring down from Northern Kentucky at the time. It’s not particularly cheap but if you have time to wait and a few pieces worthy. Really nice people. We were lucky enough to watch the process of a few things they were working on. I may have mentioned this to you before. The memory fades.

    When I was a kid in the seventies those cake saver plastic containers were all the rage. We were forever having functions. One day when I was a kid we were in Pennsylvania and the whole family was making dozens of pies and cakes to go to a family function that day. They ran short by one and decided it would be okay. The strategically wedged all of us and the cakes and pies into the station wagon I was about four or five. Including all of us it was quite packed. I can remember my mom setting me down on the seat next to my aunt. When we got there there was one pumpkin pie missing. Take a guess where it was? Let me help they set me right down on it😂 thank God for Saran wrapped😂

    Good evening, George! Those prices, for the quilts, seemed really good. Loved that hanging aeroplane! There was a banjo clock, behind her, that I really liked, too. That saddle purse looked like a real saddle. That one was really well-done. There was a table, on its side, at Butler, that caught my eye. A sorry sight to see it outdoors like that. I don't care the Dr Pepper thermometer wasn't in the best condition...I want it! 😂 Oooo...George, you entered the black market, with that stolen Holiday Inn ashtray 🤣 OMG! I would've been ricocheting all over the place, in Butler's. The glase looked good on that Rookwood piece...made me wonder if it might have been placed on a doily most of its existence. Crap! That storm looked ominous! I'm happy you got out of there safely! I actually liked the round wood Telechron clock the best of the ones there. I have a West Bend anodised aluminium beverage set, with the Bakelite...or is it plastic...handle on the pitcher. Those were some fun places to shop! That storm was a bit on the scary side, though. Thanks for the take-along!

    You could do a run from Chatanooga to Rome to Cartersville to Kennesaw to Woodstock to Roswell to Marietta.
    Would make a cool trip and good video fodder.
