Lost in the Woods but Found Vintage Surprises at the Antique Mall!

- Is this another wrong turn? We're barreling down an old gravel road in the middle of nowhere to find Whitecotton Antique Mall, a surprisingly large vintage facility in the back 40 that is really somewhere for antique lovers!
This unlikely place we found at the last minute has a bunch of likable stuff, from an antique carousel horse and a real life-sized Ronald McDonald statue to interesting 1904 St. Louis World's Fair glasses and a Victorian 'Vermont' pattern lidded jar. We run into a familiar friend with a booth here (with great prices that leave us up this creek with a paddle), enjoy a Christmas tree with things you never imagined as ornaments, and spot an English dining suite that helps illustrate how two appraisers can come to very different conclusions about the same antique items.
There's not much time before they close, so we sprint through as much of this surprisingly oversized vintage vault as we can, picking up bargains we spot and enjoying everything from an amazing 1910s umbrella and cane display to a great tin litho store cabinet. There's a lot to see in this most unlikely location outside of Marion, Illinois, and we look forward to our next visit when we can comb it more thoroughly!

It's so nice when you take me all around the country to see all this beautiful stuff and I just wanted to say thank you thank you!
"But then again...Where are you going with that thing?" George, that is poetry you are talking 😂❤
Thank you George, nice to meet Sandy. She is wonderful, she created a fun name for her business!
Ahhhhhh Sinclair!!!!!!!!!!
That old biscuit cabinet was sooo cool!!!!
I agree
I love the World's Fair stuff!
These booths are setup in an interesting style & easy to view. Thanks, George 🎉
You are so correct about not believing something is in great condition- I know of a few that because their eyesight is affected by cataracs and they tend to miss a lot.
I learn so much from your content! Love following you during your travels.
OMG I would love a piece of Chihuly glass!
I learn a lot on your channel. Not a reseller but I don’t want to fill my house with junk, so I listen and learn!❤
I remember Ronald and the camel ride.
Another fun shop-along! Thank you!
Please leave George lots of comments, it supports his interesting channel 😊
I really enjoyed this adventure! THANKS!😊
I always learn something from your videos! Thanks George!
So nice of you!
That Roseville at about 2:40 wasn't Carnellian, or Carnellian II. It was Tuscany. They made it in grey and pink. They made Carnellian I in many forms, and when they made Carnellian II they used fewer forms but apparently did colors over the base Carnellian I resulting in being able to see the original glaze color on the bottom. Carnellian II is actually a bit scarce in most markets, made harder to identify with the plethora of colors unless you absolutely know the shapes. You might have a point about how the line came about though. They probably did have it laying around unsold and decided to spice up the glaze and give it another shot. It certainly sounds plausible.
What a fun place!! Thanks for another great video!
That thumbnail is awesome😂
It's always fun to find a deal. Especially when it's in an antique mall.
😊
Love the antique stores on the hiways.
Always enjoy your videos. Very informative. 😊
Me too 🎉
This was a fun video. It made me laugh and smile to see Xeno feign alarm at Ronald McDonald. (Everybody knows clowns are evil.)
The owner of Junk and Disorderly was so clever to come up with that name for her business. The giant mushroom lamp was amazing!
I had fun with this one too! Ronald McDonald is specifically evil lol
I have always wanted a carousel horse. I love them. The real ones are usually repainted many times. That one said original colors. Doesn’t say original paint, though.
The thumbnail cracked me up.
I know you weren't a fan of Ronald McDonald.
So funny you two! 😂😂 🤡😱😂😂
Ha! Thanks. He just creeped me out as a kid lol
They have great oldies🥰
Thanks George!❤
You know how to find the places!
Hi George! The empoli bottles...I am curious what they were priced at? TIA and the thumbnail is awesome!
Hi George, I enjoy exploring with you!! I still have my Neil the Frog Canister Set from when I was first married... too funny that it's now a collectible!!
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
You're catching up! I better get to work
Great pieces! Not sure which clown was the scariest!
I enjoy your videos so much George!
Thank you for the walk about!
Good evening, George! That child's washing machine was interesting. I kind of liked that. There was a Victorian hanging lamp in that space, too, that caught my eye. Couldn't tell if it had been monkied with, though. I got my big, Empire style, oak sideboard for $45.00...MANY years ago, at auction. I liked that old kerosene pump. I had a decanter set like the red one, at one time, it was lost in the house fire. The set I had was in green. The Mary Gregory is one thing I've never gotten into. That and Northwood's "Grape & Cable"...among a few others...are beverage sets I've never been interested in owning. There was a printer's drawer there that I'd likely had to get. Loved that National Biscuit Company cabinet! There was a child's sand pail, on the red cart, that I liked. That looked like a really good place to shop, and the prices were really good! Thanks for taking us along!!!
Loved the Victorian etagere….
Not a fan of roll top desks, but that epic desk was so unique, I love it!
Seeing the baby tub reminded me of the time I put my baby sister's new walking shoes on her while she was in a baby bath. Mom walked my grandparents to the door across the room and when she turned her back, on went the brand new leather Stride-Rites the pediatricians all recommended for toddlers. They surely got kickbacks lol. I got my ass busted. ✌
Thanks for noticing the set of silverware!
I wish I found more interesting sets to show! It's a great area of collecting
Wonderful shop with great prices. Never seen a porcelain baby tub before. Thanks for sharing.
I loved the fan mirror and the frog cookie jar!!
I learn so much from you, and this summer, when I'm making a trip to the hill country of texas, I'm going to be looking for antiques. I hope I can remember just some of what you share.
Thanks so much.
So happy to relax and watch George!❤❤❤
Thanks George!
Frame 16:09 Quick George you must save Zeno from the Scary Clown. Don't call on Misty she'll run for the hills. That is a Really Great Antique Shop. Now thats a place I'd really like to go, even think the route to get there is neat !! :~)
Loved that small secretary with the diamond shaped mirrors.I looked for a small piece like that for a long time.Finally just gave up.Too hard to find where l am.
❤️ 😍 H
Great prices on many things. Thanks for the tour
Yes, lots of fun ! 😊 thank you !!
The Goebel figure was a good price if not damaged you should have picked this up 😊
Thnks for another great video
So many cool things!
Thanx for a great trip!
Thank you for all the great info!
I used to watch I married Joan. I just love those old shows.
Speaking of out of the way places, I saw a very interesting looking antique and vintage place on HWY 287 between Laramie and Fort Collins. Out all by itself on this mountain road. Looked like a farmhouse/barn well maintained old building. I was driving that road really early morning so it wasn’t open. And I had a LONG way to go. So I didn’t stop. But it’s a beautiful drive. You might try that drive if you’re in that neighborhood (on your way to see Yvon, maybe?).
I love that Antique mall. So much fun !
Great show.
Very informative and fun.
My fav channel. 😊
I'd have bagged the Chihuly piece if possible. His work is never cheap and prices probably aren't going down any time soon.
I liked. The doll
What a great place! So interesting to see things we don’t normally run across. And Zeno looked like he was having such a good time. Fun fun fun!thank you ❤
Great mall, I will check this place out
I'm learning so much binge watching all you videos! Thank you.
Ty for another awesome video ❤
George, just wanted to thank you for saying what the prices of things are! ❤
What a cool mall. They had some quality pieces!
I’m so glad I found your channel! Thank you for sharing your experiences and knowledge ❤ if you ever make it to south Mississippi or south Louisiana I would love to show y’all around!
I really hope I see when u go back!!❤
At 14:15 in the video there is a X-mas tree behind you. There are teacups hanging on it, is that a thing or just a way to display/get them out of the way??? Interesting for sure. Have a great day
Hello George
Frame 14:55 George, I thought you said Coffee was missing. The coffee is right beside the Flour. I might have misheard you.
I wonder what happened to all those children rides that were outside the stores.
Please keep in mind dealers in antique malls may have put something out in perfect condition only to find it has been chipped, cracked or broken by a customer.
🎉🎉
Love your videos. I like to know what you purchase
What is Candy's TH-cam channel? Great video!
Could you point me in the direction of where to get some antique and vintage jewelry appraised? I took it to someone in my town and it did not go good. My great grandparents traveled around and made jewelry so I know just enough to know that what he told me was just not right. 😊
I always thought the older the Mary Gregory the smaller the figure... she looked pretty large to me....
😊
What states are your fav for buying and your least fav state? Thx
😅👍❤
Can we start a Xeno FAN CLUB ? PLEEZE
I;ll tell you where you can go with that little red cart with the wheels. When we were little my baby brother rolled it into the front of my mother's fish tank. Not pretty.
Ooh! Bad one
Candy has eaten too much candy
You didn´t tell u! ..How was she/he/it? Fit, I hope.
I find most collectors an reseller racially motivated
