I allow you to drag me all over North America! I go without complaint, in fact, I learn from virtually every stop you make on your journey to find something antique or vintage everyplace that you find open for business. My 50 plus years in the business gives me a background to usually select the same items for collecting or resale that you purchase. I love listening to your descriptions and the chain of thought that you use to reason out your buys. Keep on keeping on, George! Your longtime viewer, subscriber, supporter, and friend from afar, Judy in Texas. ❤🎉❤
@@judithderington-mcconnell6437 hi Judy! I really enjoy that someone who had your experience and understanding still enjoys seeing what I’m doing, I learn all the time and am so happy to take you along with me
Thanks, George, for taking us along on your random ramblings. Altho you didn't find much, the antiqucation you imparted was valuable & entertaining, as usual!
Hey George, I had that same green parrakeet when I was little. Fun to see it all. Thanks so much for always sharing the good stuff w/us. Love & Blessings Always
This was a day filled with fun, shopping, and seeing stuff. Love it. So much to see from different parts of the US for sure. I love the fact that not everyone collects the same things for the same reasons. We all overlap a bit but that is what makes it better. Have a wonderful day and thank you for sharing this day. Happy Holidays and safe travels
I like stopping at the Centraila goodwill. I've stopped there for years. The last time I did, I picked up at viking pedestal petal bowl, rectangular folded in two, in amber. I also shop for my grand kids. They had some nice clothes there. I got off the freeway because of a huge 20-30 minute back up, so I figured why not shop!
Laura C would love that piece I watch her, and you crazy lamp lady and the Nitch lady vintage bombshell when she post.. you have the most knowledge about everything!
Oh George another wonderful Christmas present....I loved the off the beaten path tour and shop and commentary as always...loved the books and dish and pottery and good thoughts and humor and information...thank you thank you. No on the lamps..lol....and wow on the Baby Jesus,,,what a sad true reality often and I may of already said my mom's mom, my Mimi, was a Librarian...loved the books info and shop.
My generation has the pleasure of family books from 1800's. My own parents reserved the past generations & their books, treating them all w respect & tenderness. It was interesting to see them handled a volume & hear the sound made when replaced on the shelf.
@@janetpogue4970 Oh Janet, thank you so much,,,,all the best to you too. Just love it here and the way George loves it all and shares. It is a great trip every time lol.
Thank you for sharing your adventures. I learn so much from your commentary,. I must say I also appreciate how you respond so positively to all the negativity. Your skin must be thicker than mine. Stay safe in your travels.
We were out there last summer. It was packed, and at the time I had a huge death-pile to tackle so I left without purchasing anything. Great prices. Fun! Thank you George.
Enjoyed this tour. Am now motivated to hit the road, get out of my area, which is NW NJ , where there might be more variety and better pricing. You are inspiring to those of us who cherish the past and like to collect and preserve items that are no longer being made. Thanks
Hi George. Funny your mention of Laura Caldwell--I found you through her, and very glad I did! In her latest video (1/24/25), she scooped up a magazine rack just like the one you showed at the first location at 2:00. And yes, I do believe she would have picked up that pottery piece--she does love blue (as do I).
Thanks, I really appreciate the kind words! More fun to come. I didn’t actually work on it, I was a backstage guest though and that led me into the appraisal business
The SAVE Thrift Store is my favorite - just 1/2 mile from my house! I wanted to buy the silver leaf glasses, but someone else beat me to them. Fun video, George!
I love the fun 70s coffee pot, the big enameled roasting pan in bright blue from the barn sale. I like the shape and handle on the Franciscan pitcher. Too bad about the crazing. I usually pick up the items that are not for sale. I drove a 1970 Cheville (not SS) 396, bored to a 405. Fun car. Have a very merry Christmas to you and yours. I'll be dog sitting for several families, 3 very large dogs, 3 small dogs, and my two labradoodles. 🎄 🎅 ❤
I found Richard Nixon's Memoir at the thrift store, & it was signed! The value is all over the place on it. So idk what's worth. We do live the area where he grew up. I still feel like it was a good find. The book jacket was in pretty good condition too. Looking at them for autographs is a Great idea! Thank you George!
Good evening, George. That old washboard is neat. I have my grandmother's washboard here, and it has glass in it, instead of the tin. Was the Eskimo Pie sign an old one? It caught my attention. That dresser...or was it a sideboard...was fantastic. I really liked it. The deep red candleholder and footed bowl, at 4:56, caught my eye. I've seen decanters done like that, but I've no idea who made them, or where they're from. Loved the Daguerreotype. I really like the ones in the gutta percha cases, with the velvet. Mom used to have some of those, but she sold them when we combined houses. There was a Time-Life book titled _The Age of the God-Kings_ that caught my eye. I wondered if it was about the pharaohs. If so, it would've had to come home with me. I have several books on heraldry, but all of mine are focused on coats of arms. I liked the green Czech decanter set. Too bad it was missing the stopper. Those figural lamps...Uh-Uh 😂 If that _Shadow in the Pines_ book was a teen mystery book, it would've likely come with me. Those were actually really good thrift stores. Thanks for taking us along to shop!
Good evening, @ConstellationPegasus. ☃️ Always enjoy reading your detailed thoughts. 🎄 The two items, at 4:56 , are retired Morrocan Spice Candle Holders, from PartyLite. 🇺🇲 As an aside, I once met a sales rep., for Eskimo Pie; he gifted me many certs., for free boxes of them. 😅 (I placed them in Christmas cards.☺️)
@@MyKingdomForAK9 Thank you! Thanks, also, for the info on the candleholders! I've seen decanters like that, but never any cordials to match. I'd have never guessed they were from PartyLite. From the look of them, I'd have guessed they were made in India. I should've been on the receiving end of your Christmas cards, after you met the Eskimo Pie salesman 😂
Hi there! The old washboard already sold, I just found out today. I like the glass ones very much! The Eskimo Pie was a repro, I'd have highlighted it otherwise. The dresser was really pretty, wish I could've seen up close! I'm a big fan of early photography, it shows so much the styles of what was a very difficult era in American history. I think you're right about that Time-Life book, I really could use more info about ancient Egypt! Those figural lamps were great for target practice in my estimation. For once, the thrifting actually turned up some interesting older pieces!
So glad you took the 3 Frankoma pieces! I used to buy in threes for my family because we were a family of 3. I also sell on Etsy in odd numbers - it doesn't seem to detract from sales.
Hi George! You are shopping at my favorite Chehalis thrift store. The Thrift Store. lol They have colored tags for 50% to 70% off and discounts on different days. I really enjoy joining you on your travels. Have a Merry Christmas and safe travels.
03:50 The bracelet was (sigh) Avon. The library sale: if it's anything like here, barcode scanners got in there when it first opened and bought all sorts of stuff. I looked for things too old to have bar codes, before my weight limit ruled selling books out.
I so enjoy seeing areas of the beautiful USA, w u, that I most likely won't have the opportunity to explore. I am quite drawn to the modest,, mid size and small towns. Take Care 😊
It's odd when here I am of an age and means that I know the experiences I have enjoyed and so many other experiences, sights and sounds I will never have. I have only recently realized this 😂 😢
I'm so glad to take you along with me! The amazing thing in this new world is that we can engage in all sorts of places we might never get to ourselves
Hi George. Greetings from Ontario, Canada’s most populous and richest province. Both Canada’s national capital of Ottawa as well as Toronto, the largest city in the country are here. You pronounced “Ontario” exactly right. Come visit! Thanks for your videos. I always enjoy them.
If you mean in antiques and vintage items, my advice is to find something you like and will hold for a period of time, perhaps something made with precious stones or metals that would have some intrinsic value as well. If you mean finance, that will be some other channel.
8:29 that brand and style bring back memories of Canada! 9:15 LOVE those trivets! Violets are in my top two favorite flowers. 10:14 I like having off numbers in case I break one. 25:48 That spot looks familiar. Is it where I met you?
@@TheAntiqueNomad the figurals yes. Well I was close in age. but missed the reproduction because, I didn’t touch them and seeing them for 4 seconds. Love the challenge and your channel, thanks @TheAntiqueNomad
Oh no! I spotted two more Frankoma mugs on a different shelf! Time stamp 10:13. 😢 I’d hoped the seller would tell you there were more. Or… could those be the mugs you’d already picked up and set down to grab the third? Hope so!
How do you ship eBay orders when you are on the road seemingly all the time? I'm very curious into how you schedule your time and if you have a home base, and how many booths you have!
I usually do a flight of eBay items towards month-end or beginning of the month when I know I'll be around long enough to ship, or I take them with me on my travels and ship from the road. I do have a friend who helps me a lot with eBay, and he handles some of it too.
Also, I always buy back ups - so odd numbers don’t bother me a bit! I have a house full of rambunctious and clumsy boys - so things are often accidentally broken.
Why did u let 1 broken dish keep u from buying those cool triangle dishes ? Do u kind of wish u had them now? It seemed they were the find u were most excited about today 🎉
I was very excited about them, but one meant an odd number, so really it was like losing two, and then I talked myself out of them. I should've inspected them closer, but I did notice scratching too.

Don't understand the stealing of Baby Jesus. But I have seen a Goodwill Baggie with a grouping of them. Which made me ponder a little bit ! I think someone was going to Get a Lump of Coal in their stocking that year ( or 2 ). :~)
Well George, I guess those stolen baby Jesus figures are on full display tonight at those certain "Christian" homes!!! LOL I almost fell out of my chair when you said that because we have also had SO many stolen through the years at our shop in KY!!! I thought it was just us!
Hello, I have several very old antiques, approximately 2,000 years old. If you know someone suitable who might be interested in purchasing them, or if you yourself are interested, I can send you photos so you can take a look. Thank you
Centenial by James Michener .? But i read his Chesapeake ( all my ancestors originated at Chesapeake ) Wouldnt ever read it again. Very depressing book ! Also have a Maritime book of ships of Cheaspeake bay as my fathers great grandfather Captained a ship. Was exciting to see the boats of the old days. I assume people from other countries arent fans of Jesus so they feel they dont want to see him. I know people cement their diplays in or build them into a box.
Sadly you can tell the stuff has been cherry picked. Google lens has really forever changed this market. It dont matter ones opinion on google lens its still forever changed things.
I think what I saw is that the stores are using Google Lens to price without understanding the market, thus overpricing them. I just look for the things they miss and there are plenty
Edsel my favorite classic car. I saw ONE ever . At a car show least 30 yr ago. Was black and orange. And neat to hear your comments on it cause its what my father ( Ed ) told me abt it at the time. 🤎🖤🤎🖤🤎

Also, I always buy back ups - so odd numbers don’t bother me a bit! I have a house full of rambunctious and clumsy boys - so things are often accidentally broken.
That makes a lot of sense!

The yellow and brown Pfaltzgraff pattern is called "Village", not Villager.
Thanks, I knew that at one time but memories can blur
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
Why did u let 1 broken dish keep u from buying those cool triangle dishes ? Do u kind of wish u had them now? It seemed they were the find u were most excited about today 🎉
I was very excited about them, but one meant an odd number, so really it was like losing two, and then I talked myself out of them. I should've inspected them closer, but I did notice scratching too.
Disapointing

Don't understand the stealing of Baby Jesus. But I have seen a Goodwill Baggie with a grouping of them. Which made me ponder a little bit ! I think someone was going to Get a Lump of Coal in their stocking that year ( or 2 ). :~)
🤗🇨🇦👍
Well George, I guess those stolen baby Jesus figures are on full display tonight at those certain "Christian" homes!!! LOL I almost fell out of my chair when you said that because we have also had SO many stolen through the years at our shop in KY!!! I thought it was just us!
No, it's a real problem!
What do you like to read?

Hi pogo
You pronounced Aylmer correctly. Too many people say "Elmer."
I had a feeling it wasn’t Elmer!
😂😂
Hello,
I have several very old antiques, approximately 2,000 years old.
If you know someone suitable who might be interested in purchasing them, or if you yourself are interested, I can send you photos so you can take a look.
Thank you
I am willing to look, send an email to theantiquenomad@gmail.com
@TheAntiqueNomad sure. I will send you. Thank you for your reply 🌹
Centenial by James Michener .? But i read his Chesapeake ( all my ancestors originated at Chesapeake ) Wouldnt ever read it again. Very depressing book ! Also have a Maritime book of ships of Cheaspeake bay as my fathers great grandfather Captained a ship. Was exciting to see the boats of the old days. I assume people from other countries arent fans of Jesus so they feel they dont want to see him. I know people cement their diplays in or build them into a box.
It sounds like you have an interesting family history! I think Michener can be heavy depending on the story but I liked that one
Sadly you can tell the stuff has been cherry picked. Google lens has really forever changed this market. It dont matter ones opinion on google lens its still forever changed things.
I think what I saw is that the stores are using Google Lens to price without understanding the market, thus overpricing them. I just look for the things they miss and there are plenty
Thank you for going back for that third pretty orange cup! I was so sad it was going to be lonely! 🥹
You know I had to!
For a antique expert....that sure doesnt look like a real barn!
Lol you are right in that it is not the classic barn structure of childhood. Metal buildings pass for a lot of things nowadays
ha~

Edsel my favorite classic car. I saw ONE ever . At a car show least 30 yr ago. Was black and orange. And neat to hear your comments on it cause its what my father ( Ed ) told me abt it at the time. 🤎🖤🤎🖤🤎
That’s so cool! I see them once in a great while, they make under 100000 total so they aren’t common
