- Even a downpour can't keep them away! We're set up to sell at the giant Springfield Antique Show in Ohio, where sales are brisk even throughout a big washout as hungry collectors and serious TH-cam viewers and content creators brave the storm to find their favorites.
Costume jewelry, Fenton and Viking art glass, beautiful baskets and fun ephemera draw shoppers to our booth, while our neighbors and friends add everything from Morgantown elegant glass and Haeger Pottery to metal outdoor furniture, cowboy collectibles and 1970s home goods to the mix. We sell up a storm, then head inside to find true antiques and some vintage bargains of our own!
Nashville has come to Ohio, in the form of a pavilion dedicated to the Plein Air art, primitive furniture and sophisticated antebellum decor that populates high-end shows in the south. We discover an amazing collection of 19th century American flags (and debunk the Betsy Ross story), see a scarce time clock from an obscure early American car factory, and enjoy the beauty of leaded glass barrister bookcases! A lovely pair of experienced antique mavens teach us about Scottish fern ware and tartan ware, while explaining the real reason that people need to come see these antique shows.
Some powerful WWII ephemera and political memorabilia help us contemplate future choices, while vibrant Blenko glass and a high-contrast 1980s mirror that's too cool to pass up lure us back into the sanctity of our happy antique show bubble! We meet a lot of fun TH-cam viewers and resellers (including several new to us), show what it's like to navigate the show's renewal process and bring a little more 'behind-the-scenes' look at the ups and downs of doing an outdoor antique show.
We look forward to repeating this feat at the September show in Springfield, Ohio this weekend, where beautiful weather is expected this time!

Hooray! My favorite! Appraisals ❤️🐩 👨🏻🎨
Love the quilts
George, this sounds like a good, can’t wait !
The Marion Sloan painting is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your adventure and the treasures you found along the way. ❤❤
Hey George...always good to see you😂
15:02 the mother and daughter duo have great items… and that BROOCH 🤩
Yes! So big and good
What fun!
Good evening, George. That weather wouldn't bother me a jot. I love a thunderstorm. I'm sure it was rough on all of you that were selling, though. I liked that Dutch Boy doll, and the Buster Brown shoe store piece. I have a child's Buster Brown tea set. Those boxes...al of them...were fantastic. Old boxes have always interested me. The fernware was something I could see myself living with easily. I _really_ liked that! There looked like a lot of carnival canes where the tramp art was. Those are something that I like. Aaarg! I want that barrister bookcase, with the leaded glass fronts. I spotted a tumbler, in that irradiated glass lot, that I would've liked to have...if it hadn't been monkied with. It was a Heisey piece. Loved the Empire Revival library table. There were a lot of things there that would've really tempted me. Thanks for the tour!
You are another intrepid collector then! I was shocked to sell thousands of dollars during a downpour but hey, I'd have shopped too. I'd own all or any of those boxes, and the barrister bookcase to boot! I saw the Heisey tumbler too, it was sad that they ruined it with irradiation. I hope Willie Joe brought the Dutch Boy doll, I understand we'll have the Buster Brown piece in the booth with us too!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I might not go grocery shopping during a downpour, but I'd definitely shop an antiques show during one 😂 Those boxes and the barrister bookcase were fantastic! I thought the price, on the bookcase, was more than fair for it, too. I have a pitcher and four tumblers in that Heisey _Colonial_ pattern, and I'd like to add two more tumblers, but that one had been, to me, turned into waste. My favourite Heisey is their clear glass, (I have a bad habit of comparing any clear glass to Heisey, too), and my favourite is their _Colonial_ pattern. For me, it's all about the glass, with Heisey, and I don't even want etched or molded patterns on it, much less have it irradiated like that piece. I don't think I'd have been able to resist either the Dutch Boy doll or the Buster Brown piece.
Jerry has a great hat. I fell for the Betsy Ross tale. Now I know the truth. Love seeing all kinds of new items. New to me. Thanks George! 😊❤
What a great show! Really impressive items. It’s amazing to know people travel all over the USA sharing their treasures.
That avocado green cat 🐱🤩
That Buster Brown piece is so great! I love it!
A lot of great stuff and a lot of great people. Loved the barrister book case! Looks like an amazing show!!
It really is good!
This was FANTASTIC George!! I’m glad you had a great show!! I loved your added embellishment to the insurance letter advertisement. You always crack me up at some point in all of your videos!!❤
Your booth looks great, George. You have a great selection of items. Love the enameled compacts.
Hi love your programme. You commented that the page turner was so you didn't soil the books. I was told that they were used to turn news papers. In the past newsprint came off on your hands,so if you didn't have a butler to iron the paper to prevent this happening. Us commoners used a page Turner. Keep the videos coming. Best wishes Sandra
Your the best !
Hope this weekend is successful for you.
Hello George 👋
Hello there!
I’ll be there at some point this weekend. My first time in Springfield. Hope to find your tent!
I'm in booth #301, yellow tent under a big tree in front of the Dog Pavilion. It's one of the few numbered spaces actually shown on their map!
I'm in Booth 301, one of the few numbers shown on the map they give out! Please stop by, yellow tent under a big tree by the Dog Pavilion
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Well u very smart ..... sometimes ..........when u do as you are told ..... sometimes
Lol that is sometimes true
I think the purple glass is pretty . But , as you said George , not everyone is a fan. But that’s what makes the antique and vintage world interesting , there’s something for everyone. Just waiting to be discovered .
I should tell you about a stone known as ammolite. It started being introduced in the 1960’s. So there are vintage pieces . It’s only found along the St. Mary river in Southern Alberta , which makes it rare . The more blue in the stone , the higher the value . Wish I could put a link here for you . But if you Google this , you may want to investigate it . You might find pieces of this in estates , or a place like Vegas .
Neat! i'll definitely google it. I like the deep purple color in glass made that way, and I like the lavender color of glass that has slowly turned in the sun...but the irradiation to me is "cheating", plus I see them ruin some good old pieces of glass that way
Welcome to Ohio George
You got RAIN??!!!! Jesus God, we have been under the WORST DROUGHT in decades here in Ohio----so if this giant flea market Happy Vibe brought some rain this week-----THANK GOD!! I live only about 10-15 miles from there and we got zilch.
Saw my tacky tourist mumu hanging up in your booth! Was the mentioned cat cookie jar from me also?
It sure was!!
Sorry I can't be there!
Clay County Kentucky is named after Henry Clay and the Frehleysons are still an important name in New Jersey Republican politics today.
Interesting about the New Jersey connection! I wasn't familiar with his VP pick. I do know Clay County, KY and have toured Clay's home in Lexington, which was quite interesting.
Buster Brown always creeped me out as a kid
✨❤️🧡💛💚💙💜✨
Keep your head on a swivel in Springfield.
That's funny how you mentioned eleven kids. My husband and I have eleven biological children!
Wow! Big family. I dated one of nine for awhile
George is the King of Queens . We're Not Worthy !
I have Paloma picasso his unclaimedchild handbag thn she started worki g at tiffanys

We line up to set up tomorrow and the event is Friday-Sunday
George, is this video/show from this year? I thought you said at the end 'I'll just have to come back in September'
I'm so confused 🤪
@@SisterShirley yes this is from May of this year, the fall Springfield show is this weekend
So it's off topic but what's it really like there. Meaning the Haitian immigrant problem eating cats Etc. Have you seen anything or you don't want to touch this topic with a 10-foot Pole. Totally curious for an unbiased opinion.
Well, since you asked--I've been here 6 times in 3 years, have driven extensively through Springfield and know people who live here. Not once have any of them said that rumor has a basis in fact! The people I've met all seem perfectly nice, and both locals and this particular group of immigrants (who came here legally to flee the gangs who took over their country) seem to be working hard, paying taxes and living their lives.
The new arrivals are not fully enculturated, and still are learning both English and what the social mores are in a new land. The town has grown very fast and the need for more infrastructure hasn't caught up yet to the influx, which has created hardships for both those who were here and the new arrivals.
Social friction while new arrivals learn what is expected of them in a new culture is typical in any boom town; the same thing happened when I was a kid and was one of 20000 new arrivals in Bremerton, Washington when the Navy built a new submarine base there. It caused more traffic, crowded schools, and took about 3 years for them to hire enough police and build enough schools for us. Some of the locals had initial resentment about us being transfered there from California and Texas (until they realized what an economic boom it was for them)...but no one falsely accused us of eating their pets!
The VP candidate for the GOP now admits that he made up this story (about his own consitutents) to get people's attention, spreading a tale that was originally started by a known neo-Nazi who does not like the fact that immigrants have moved here. The GOP Governor and GOP mayor of Springfield have both disavowed his comments, and nothing I've seen here indicates that they are the ones lying.
@@TheAntiqueNomad Thank you for this!!! Refreshing to hear your feelings about this tumultuous political season… Truly appreciate your perspective… May the Better Angels prevail!! 🩶🩶🩶
Hopefully you didn't have any run ins with Haitian Cannibals
🤣🤣🤣
