Out of over 3k views NO THUMBS DOWN, that should be a UA-cam WORLD RECORD! Finally people realize you are the real deal no inflated dream prices just what can be possible and always willing to work with people. Love you George.
I’m so happy to have found your channel. You have a way of delivering information in a wonderful manner. I was especially happy to see the Jefferson golden hour clock. I found one in great condition at an estate sale. I had to have it because I remember my parents having one when I was little. I paid $30 for it! They also had a mastercrafters clock with a blond girl in a blue dress sitting on a swing. Wish they held on to it!
How neat! I'm glad you got the Jefferson Golden Hour back, I've had one in the past 18 months. I appreciate your kind words and am so happy you found the channel too! Looking forward to seeing you in chats and comments
Hi George Love seeing so much cool stuff. My grandma gave me the western doll that was in the video when I was about 7. My mom made her all sorts of outfits. We still have her. I guess you could say she was the American girl doll of that time!!! Take care Love your channel.
Another great antique History lesson. It’s so nice to see so many gorgeous items and have you tell a little something about them so that if we see it out there, we can recognize it!
I love seeing all the pretty things! Being an Oregon native, I have always had a soft spot for Portland, ( although it scares me anymore to drive there). Here’s a fun fact that will date me. My grandmother took me on a train called “the Portland Rose” to visit there when I was little. We went to the opening of Lloyds Center with my cousins. They claimed to be the largest shopping center in the country at that time in 1960.
I always love George's videos and I agree about Portland. We were there years ago to see the King Tut exhibit, and my son who lives in Battle Ground sent me a video of the homeless problem that's there, sooo sad for that wonderful town. Here's a fun fact, I have a cousin named LaRae.
@@sherriestockdale7038 that is so cool! Not many of us around! Where are you and your cousin from? I grew up in Eastern Oregon. I saw the king tut exhibit in Seattle in 1978.👍💙
At 19:46, I saw the ribbed, non-colored glass that looked like the Manhattan Glass you collect! I hope I am correct, because then I have proven I have learned from your lessons to we subscribers.
I’ve noticed that Portland has the best vintage stuff so glad you took us around. That’s Sears entertainment table Looks straight out of the Brady Bunch family.
Thank you for this video. I always learn alot from your videos. Oh today i went to a antique store north of me an i found an donkey ashtray the is Treasure Craft an had it metal for the cigarette like the fish does. I saw it way back on a shelf an recognized it because of what you have showed. My husband has taken it. Lol
He sure does. He put it with his Viking blue ashtray an two others. I think i paid 8.oo for it at one of my favorite antique stores in a town north of where i live her in Wichita.
This was so fun! I have always loved old clocks. I just might have to look up that last vendor. Of course Jason loved the Disney figurines...and the Hamm’s bear!
Oh me too! It's great stuff, I was fortunate to be there when it was introduced to the collector market at the LA Pottery Show. Even then it was this expensive though, don't think she made a lot
I had so much fun at the show, and it was great to meet George! I also bought several pieces from the dealer with 10, 20, and 40 dollar cases and couldn’t be more happy. What a fun time!
George, enjoying your channel very much!! Those clips by the jewelry are for shoes- if you had a plain pair of dress shoes, you could add different clips for a different look! 😃
@@TheAntiqueNomad - Definitely! My friend who attended with me (being a newbie to all things vintage, etc.) could not believe the prices for the plastic Halloween toys.
My Mom had a Sterling Silver Set and, of course, it just sat there so when it was time Mom would tell me "Time to clean the silver." It always looked so great cleaned up and I did a Good job, I really liked to see it shine!! She never said where it went, probably to cousins who cared more about that stuff than I did.👋🙂
Hi, I found you recently through Nurse Flipper and I'm really enjoying your videos and the expertise that you bring to them. I would love if you could do a video or blog post with recommendations for people interested in learning about antiques - your favourite books, courses and websites etc. Thanks!
I just found your channel and have subscribed. We used to set up on Lincoln Road every other Sunday in season? Will you be in Brimfield in May.? We hope to be there. What is your background? You are very knowledgeable in many areas? Where is your home base? How are you managing traveling during these difficult times?
Hi Heather! I’m really glad you found me and I hope we’ll cross paths. I’ve not been to Brimfield yet but hopefully next spring. I’ve been in this for a few decades as manager of an antique mall chain, accredited appraiser, conductor of estate Sales and shoe dealer
Oh, there's one or two people who make a point of it to be nasty. They don't realize that UA-cam counts a thumbs up as people being interested in the channel, so they're actually helping me lol
George .., can you tell me what they were asking for the stone grapes ? Just as you approached them and looked at the price tag the booth owners were talking to you … I have a nice collection of them in the green and pink that I have thrifted . 😊
Hi George! That stretch glass epergne was fantabulous! We already have five or six epergnes here, but that one would've really tempted me! The Victorian bamboo piece, with the mirror, was at a really good price. It was a super-nice piece, too. The bobwhite taxidermy was really well-done. Was that a kaleidoscope, with the twisted black case with brass end there? I have always had a thing for kaleidoscopes. Actually, if that was a kaleidoscope, it likely would've captured my attention more than anything else. Silver is beautiful...as long as someone else has it. I'm not going to keep the stuff polished. Loved the "Thistle" pattern Phoenix Glass vase. I used to have one of the scales like the on next to the "Little Duke" slot machine. I sold it when I moved here. I used to have A LOT of the United motion clocks, but just couldn't find space for all of them, so they ended up sold. That looked to be a great show! Thanks for showing us around it!!!
I really should've bought the bamboo piece! I prefer coins to tableware, but I do use the flatware daily and if you do that it won't tarnish...I'd never use holloware though. The Phoenix vase made me happy to see again! That was a good scale, the deco shine of the slot machine made me forget to mention it...it's sad we can't keep it all, I'd have so many amazing things but it's been fun letting them find their right home!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I really liked the bamboo piece, but the one thing, in the whole video, that really caught my attention was the item that looked like a kaleidoscope. I don't know if it was a kaleidoscope, but, if it was, I'd have been all over it. Those old scales, with the weights, weigh at least four ounces😉 I really enjoyed having the one I had, but there is simply no room for one of them here. I sold it to a person that had been wanting one for a long time, so I was happy for them to get it.
lots to,see and do,love it here,yes the rent is sky market. Years ago, we collected all the old Christmas, my mother set up one bedroom and it was all old ornaments, likes. still like but hard to find. Back in the1950 my mother found in magazine Roy Roger/Dale queen size bed in. Wood pressed heart on headboard with both inside the heart and foot of bed looked like a fence and Trigger. No one has ever seen one. It was advertised in a magazine. I have everything in Roy Rogers and Hoppy
The Northwest is so wonderful, I understand why everyone wants to come but it's sure put pressure on folks. I bet the Christmas room was fun! That headboard had to be really scarce, I'm sure most parents wouldn't have sprung for that, how cool!
George, how do you feel about seeing something you sold; being sold by the person you sold it to? I sold 2 crystal lamps at what I thought was a good price and saw it selling for double. I instantly think I underpriced and kick myself in the butt.
I don't really mind it, as long as i knew what I needed for it I don't mind letting someone else have some profit too. Sometimes you realize you gave too big a deal, but as Jocelyn of Crazy Lamp Lady says, that's just the price of the lesson.
george, i just found a cast iron bank with a African American kid eating a piece of watermelon, been trying hard to find info on him, he's got 1911 marked underneath his neck, he is very old just wondering if you have ever came across one. I know some people would be offended but he is very cute, if you have any info. i would be glad to hear it.
I am familiar with that bank, the mark you see could be a mold number rather than a date, I'd have to see it. Have you had it looked at in the past? There are reproductions, and yes, they're offensive to some people, but I know a lot of black collectors who feel they're worth preserving if they're original.

That's really nice and so nicely put, I really appreciate it
Amazing selection of clocks at the end!
That was cool yes
I loved pink Murano bowl, I have never seen anything that beautiful. Thank you for showing it.
Isn't it? Dino Martins was a great designer and knew how to match fancy with modern
I exclaimed when I saw it, too!! Beautiful, just Beautiful!!👋🙂
George, your tour around this show and sale was so much fun! Learned a bunch and enjoyed that you took us along with you.
More to come! I'm sure glad it was fun for you too
I am so upset I missed this antique show - I live in Vancouver - Thank you for stopping at the clock booth really cool Nomad!
It was so cool! We’ll be back in July

Beautiful gorgeous vintage and antiques..thx for showing us all the wonderful things .
It really is a neat new antique vintage show
That was wonderful showing us so many unique items and as always learning from our favorite Professor Uncle George. Thanks so much!!!!
I'm glad I get places where I can do that!

George so many pretty things..I was just so amazed..
I can’t wait until we do it again next July
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
George, I’m enjoying “binge watching” your videos today. TFS♥️

They might have been at that point! It was such a big deal and ahead of its time. I really like Portland
I'm sorry to say that it's a problem in towns large and small now
Pugs on a ladder!! Adorable! : )
They sure were!
At 19:46, I saw the ribbed, non-colored glass that looked like the Manhattan Glass you collect! I hope I am correct, because then I have proven I have learned from your lessons to we subscribers.
Yep,the housing for the homeless has come into Washington also,ty for you,great videos
Lovely video George! So fun and just like I was there.
I’ve noticed that Portland has the best vintage stuff so glad you took us around. That’s Sears entertainment table Looks straight out of the Brady Bunch family.
It so does! Portland is a very good vintage town
Helps that Portland got big before most western cities
Hi George thank you
You too!
The information you share with us is so valuable. I always learn so much! I'm hooked on reselling in the vintage market/flea market venue!
Fabulous! We need more people like us
those clocks were amazing.
Such a great selection
I enjoyed the show.
Thanks me too!
I’m already here and waiting for you George. Time 1:53 pm. ☺️👍🇨🇦🍁🌻
Wow! I appreciate the dedication but I'll see you at the starting time lol
Had a great time at this show. I Love the earrings & ephemera I bought from you George.
I’m so glad you had fun and SO grateful for all your help!
Lucky Gal!!!👋🙂
Well!! Who knew?? Santa wants to be left Mission Dry instead of cookies. Scandalous. Pugs on a Ladder? I want, I want; I need, I need!!
Lol yes to all that
Thank yzou
George you know so much about everything! Just amazing!
Well I like to try to learn more all the time! Thanks
Wow. This is so much fun. Thank you for taking us around and explaining what you saw!
You're so welcome! Neat stuff all over.
I learn so much from you. Very interesting as usual
Thank you and I’m glad!
Another great video! I always learn a lot from you 😎
I’m glad you enjoyed it
Great video! Amazing amount of knowledge 👏
Aww thanks
Really great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. I always learn alot from your videos. Oh today i went to a antique store north of me an i found an donkey ashtray the is Treasure Craft an had it metal for the cigarette like the fish does. I saw it way back on a shelf an recognized it because of what you have showed. My husband has taken it. Lol
Oh how cool! I haven't had the donkey in a long time. The wire pieces were popular around 1960. It's great that your husband approves lol
He sure does. He put it with his Viking blue ashtray an two others. I think i paid 8.oo for it at one of my favorite antique stores in a town north of where i live her in Wichita.
ty for the tour, very nice.
You're most welcome!
Omg omg omg the Halloween. 🎃 😍
And the Parrish 🤯. I think I bought one of my Parrish prints from them about 12 years ago. And the Zsolnay and Weller!!! Oh my.
Neat! I'll have to look for them at the July show this year
This was so fun! I have always loved old clocks. I just might have to look up that last vendor. Of course Jason loved the Disney figurines...and the Hamm’s bear!
I figured he'd like those! That guy had a fantastically fun clock collection
The clocks were sooo Cool!! I really liked the clocks & small lit fireplaces the best, Really Neat!!👋🙂
Same! It will be interesting to see what it’s like to not be late🤓
lol you get the full effect
You’re so knowledgeable! Now I want to collect Polia Pillin!
Oh me too! It's great stuff, I was fortunate to be there when it was introduced to the collector market at the LA Pottery Show. Even then it was this expensive though, don't think she made a lot
That was lots of fun!
Thank you I'm glad to have you in comments!
Wow!!!!!! Such great stuff!! Love your videos!

I'm glad you got some good things, it was really fun meeting you and I'll see you there again
I use to go to Portland Expo show every year
Found so many things there
Wish I was there
George will you be in west palm beach at the antique show any time soon? 🙏🙏👍❤️🤗
Jan February March of next year
Thanks for the introduktion to Schafer & Vater. Right up my ally 😎
Hope you enjoy it! I know they exported much to North America but I imagine there's still plenty in Europe too
George, enjoying your channel very much!! Those clips by the jewelry are for shoes- if you had a plain pair of dress shoes, you could add different clips for a different look! 😃
That’s right! I’m a fan of those
Wonderful Video I felt like I was there! Maybe next year~Its not too far from New Jersey!
It’ll be worth it come next July
I thought you were weird at first. AND NOW I THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL,😘🤗😎
Aww that's great! I admit to a little weird but I think in a special way lol
LOVE the dresses!
I don't get to see a lot of good vintage fashion, it was fun to show
I purchased some Christmas from the Whitakers’ booth at the Spokane show. Wish I could have bought more.
They have the most incredible stuff! I know it's not cheap, but who else has that kind of selection of true vintage Christmas?
@@TheAntiqueNomad - Definitely! My friend who attended with me (being a newbie to all things vintage, etc.) could not believe the prices for the plastic Halloween toys.
Thank you George! I wish I could've seen you booth. But I learned more stuff. Did you get the jewelry?
Yes I did! Very excited
OMG! That Sterling Silver set on tray looked like glass at first sight. Wow! Just Gorgeous!
It was so clean and perfect
My Mom had a Sterling Silver Set and, of course, it just sat there so when it was time Mom would tell me "Time to clean the silver."

Portland used to be a real blue collar town with very affordable housing and great parks
Seattle too. I still really love the NW but it's a problem and you couldn't deny it when you got off the freeway by Expo Center
I hate it when your livelihood gets in the way of my virtual shopping! 🤣. I loved the motion clocks. Thank you for showing so many great collections.

Oh my pug
Lol
How much was the Roseville Laurel vase?
Shoot I forgot to look
@@TheAntiqueNomad i have that one. Just wanted to know what price was now thx
I absolutely love the Alexandrite glass. I would collect that for myself if I could find any in my area. I don't think I've ever seen it in person. 😍
Look for a sort of clear medium blue where there's florescent light. I've gotten the best pieces when they didn't show lavendar.
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thank you for that tip.
Hi George! That stretch glass epergne was fantabulous! We already have five or six epergnes here, but that one would've really tempted me! The Victorian bamboo piece, with the mirror, was at a really good price. It was a super-nice piece, too. The bobwhite taxidermy was really well-done. Was that a kaleidoscope, with the twisted black case with brass end there? I have always had a thing for kaleidoscopes. Actually, if that was a kaleidoscope, it likely would've captured my attention more than anything else. Silver is beautiful...as long as someone else has it. I'm not going to keep the stuff polished.

What about making a video of your moms collection ?
I have to finish filming but yes!
George, how do you feel about seeing something you sold; being sold by the person you sold it to? I sold 2 crystal lamps at what I thought was a good price and saw it selling for double. I instantly think I underpriced and kick myself in the butt.

I think $75-125 depending where you sell
