I'm glad you are very fussy about the pieces you buy..(no cracks or chips)& your lamps are always rewired & your clocks are repaired! Your a Four Star Reseller Scott, keep up the good work!😊
Yes I’m commenting on an older video 😁 I have to say I love the driving through the neighborhood the buildings and homes are beautiful 😍 and information on history too. I have backyard chickens love the rooster you found. Nothing like the eighties it was a great era 😁
If that flower jar is part of a canister set, Sir, the smallest jar usually held tea bags and or tea leaves. And I too think it would be great for gingersnaps! Beautiful drive through town and filming. Very very cool.
Thank you. Turns out the jar was manufactured by Hull and was sold as part of a range set so it was actually what's known as a drip jar or grease jar. It could be purchased along with shakers for salt, pepper, flour and sugar. But guess what.....just as you suggested I'm using it for my gingersnaps! Thanks for watching.
@@oldcuriosityshop265 lol, that's awesome! grease jar, I guess it was more important than I ever knew. Do you think that's what the little canisters in flour sugar sets were always meant to be? But wow, a range set, I never would have guessed that!
Yes saving kitchen drippings was common during the first half of the 20th century and in the 1920's, glass and china manufacturers started producing special small "drippings" jars or grease jars for kitchen use. During the war, house wives were encourage to save all of their kitchen grease which could be taken to special collection centers where it was processed and turned into explosives to be used during the war. The little metal canisters that are marked "tea" or flour" were actually meant to hold tea and flour. Ranges sets were very popular in the 20's through the 40's and were sometimes given away when you bought a new kitchen stove.
@@oldcuriosityshop265 Thank you for taking the time to teach me, I very much appreciate it. My parents always saved bacon grease, but I always thought it was just them, not kidding. Well you have a great day, and I look forward to your next video. I was looking around a few days ago at goodwill before I found your channel, and mentioned the crazy lamp lady to a fellow shopper, and next time, I will mention your channel too!
Happy Friday the 13th Scott. Thanks for sharing the Philly AIDS Shop. So much to see and very quirky. If I’m ever in Philly definitely need to check that out. Hope you have a nice weekend. 🍁❤️
I raid the paper/office supplies aisle for junk journal supplies. You sometimes (rarely, but...) find vintage greeting cards and ephemera. They tend to be the most disorganized aisles in thrift stores, and I'm not a person who enjoys the intense dig.
Enjoy you so much. Love seeing your home and all your beautiful things. Give us a tour someday. So I'm looking at old videos and see things I want. When I go to your shop they aren't there! Darn! Its an old video.
Thank you Linda. Yes I like for my inventory to move as fast as I can get it to move. I try to list things reasonably for quick turnover and if things sit for more than a few months I really drop the price or pull them and sell at one of the local flea markets. Just let me know what you are looking for and I'll keep my eyes open!
Toni, growing up here in the crowded old cities of the north east.....I know no different. If I had more than a few yards of grass....I wouldn't know what to do with it. :)
I have been a fan for a while and I realized I just need to let you know how much I enjoy your videos and that I am learning a great deal. Personally I love going up and down the aisles with whomever I am watching because I really enjoy seeing if I can pick out the good stuff. So keep on keeping on!!
Why thank you so much. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoy the videos and for taking the time to let me know. Happy to have you shop along with me anytime!
This is like, a day in the life of Scott, video! So fun to see all the shops and old buildings. You are very interesting and entertaining, just being yourself. Love the kitchen counter videos, too. Thank you, for sharing!
I’m in lamp shade heaven !! 😇 what a wonderful cause they contribute to. They even have vintage clothing. You found wonderful items. Also a tip for those who have have a rooster or hen with a chip on their crown. I use nail polish in the same hue to touch up. Big tip... buy the expensive polish if you wash and clean them frequently
Yaay! I’m always so happy to see you! Love that candy dish! You made my day, you could show me anything and I’d be so happy! Now go play the piano for us ❤️🙏 #grateful
Scott....in all of your videos showing the architecture of Philadelphia, which i love by the way, I always notice how closely the cars are parked along the street. They are literally bumper to bumper. I’m not sure I would be able to get my car out to drive it.
Really enjoyed you taking us along again, the buildings are just amazing! I’m just a small town country girl, there aren’t any buildings for miles and miles, I pretty much live in the forest 😂
I'm not sure I've ever told you this but I LOVE your video's and we Never miss a one. I love the rides to see the city and the hunt. Those are my favorites...xoxoxoxoxo
Aye, aye, aye that MCM double glass swag lamp @ Goodwill was beautiful. Those things sell like hotcakes out here on the West coast. I just saw a double CLEAR glass very plain one for a hundred bucks. Not anywhere near as nice as that bejeweled beauty you looked @ for $39 @ 1/2 off. It's funny what does & doesn't sell depending on where you live. 💙❤💙
Love the filming of the old buildings through Philly. When you told the story of how you used to hang around the former synagogue that was turned into an antique co-op, I was amazed how young you were hanging around an antique co-op, that was not what I was doing at 16. How did you get started in all this? Or did you tell that story during another video? Maybe you could share how it all started for you being in love with vintage 20s, 30s etc and reselling etc. during a this and that video some time if you havent already!
No I've never told my story! But tis true.....before I had a driver's license I'd take the train from Jersey into Philly and roam around the antique shops on Pine street. Back in the early 1980's, Pine Street was known as Antique Row and there were dozens of quality "old time" antique shops many of which had been in business since the 1930's!
It's actually for kitchen grease. Can you imaging putting grease in such a pretty pot! Of course saving kitchen drippings and grease was very common years ago. So common that almost all of the glass and pottery manufacturers of the day included "grease pots" or "grease jars" along with matching salt and pepper shakers etc. But I like your idea. I'm gonna keep it and use is as a small cookie jar for my little ginger snaps!
@@oldcuriosityshop265 I was going to say the same as Paula. They often sold jars that size and called them biscuit jars. Of course I dob't believe they meant the American version of a biscuit. I believe it was the English version - which means your ginger snap is just perfect! (I would never put grease in anything that pretty!)
something I have never done is criticize what you left behind or discussed what you didn't look at. You always find wonderful things and know about them. You have always had excellent knowledge and passion for what you pick. .. Continue to explain why you chose what you did please. By the same token, I do notice things on the shelf. BTW I think your timeline might be changing. I was a 70's child (born in 60). People like me like familiar things
I think the kitchen jar is HULL , found a couple of examples online. "Sunglow" pattern grease jar. It is adorable! Glad you purchased it and didn't GRAB IT! ;)
7:40 I LOVE that lamp omg! I would go bonkers if I found that!! Sigghh.... This was an excellent video Scott! I've been anxious to see the AIDS Thrift since you mentioned it several videos back ( it was a rainy day). I noticed that they have a lot of novelty items in the front room. It's a shame, but my favorite genuine second hand shops have all done this. My first beloved shop became completely overtaken by novelty crap with just a teeny section of actual vintage items. And my local record store / vintage shop has lots of that stuff as well now. I guess that's business.
22:29 I'm pretty sure we had those amber glass dishes as a kid. Not sure of the true intention but we used them as ice cream dishes. I think they were meant to be banana split dishes...but we couldn't afford to have more than one scoop of ice cream and couldn't afford all the toppings. We were poor back then. I think I remember that they were a give away. We got them for so many tanks of gas or something similar to that. Mom got rid of them in the 80's as they took up space and not properly used.
I'm SO happy I'm not the only one to notice it! Have you seen the review on TH-cam? The Room - Bad Movies by fanboyflicks ? If you like dry sarcastic humor you'd like his stuff.
Great video, I love seeing glimpses of your city. I always look on every aisle in the thrift stores, some of my best finds have been found in places where they didn't belong! Also, I have a casserole dish in that same pattern as your little jar that I inherited from my Grandmother, I had no idea the maker or pattern until other commenters advised that it was Hull, love this community and their willingness to share their knowledge 💟
Thanks for feeding my constant craving for the thrill of the find! I have a been a very good ~ girl and have NOT been sourcing for over two months...No need too go else where when I just shop my stash at home! I have been parting with some things. Always fun with the ride along...I LoVe Philly...so thanks for sharing. And I hope you start to get "Indian Summer" days and cool crisp nights. And look for the BIG Harvest moon tomorrow night and if you rise early on Saturday before daylight look to the sky and see the moon it should be pink! I'm ramblin' Have a great weekend!
I will smile a little bit today, it's very early in the morning and I feel well after a cup of good coffee and your Philadelphia diving trip. Please tell me more about the 5 $ you need to pay between Jersey/Philadelphia? Thanks for taking to your trift store tour.
Hi, that was a Betamax by Sony, circa mid to late 70’s. My father was always a videophile and early adapter so we had one of the first, the VCR came after and won over the Betamax which had smaller tapes.
I especially love when you drive by all the beautiful old buildings while playing old music. And the Philadelphia Aids Thrift store looks awesome - I love funky places like that! Thanks for your fun and informative videos! :-)
Hi Scott. The road tour was just fantastic. Love all the old buildings. I think that your Royal Copley covered dish, is for tea bags. There was sure a lot of partying going on the ceiling of that last thrift shop. Mickey Mouse was in the house.
I really like the ride through Philly. That independent thrift store is wonderful. I could spend hours browsing in there. ( thank goodness they encourage that) Not a big haul but certainly three quality items are better than zero. Dashboard haul could be a new segment. 😉
Beats $15 for the Lincoln Tunnel and whatever the sales tax is these days! I miss NYC/NJ alot, and our thrift shops & flea markets are fairly worthless in Oklahoma but gas is cheap and so are the occasional tolls.
Love your videos great to see Philadelphia, I've only seen a little. Love that green uranium candy dish. And I would say that other jar would be for cookies or biscuts.Thanks for sharing another great video. You are too funny. Your friend and admirer Cheryl 💖
Thanks. It's a very old city and some neighborhoods really show their age. Sometimes a bit rough around the edges but the old north eastern cities have weathered quite a bit of history. Thanks for watching.
Scott's Old Curiosity Shop : ugh, not for nothin, but theres a couple of popular TH-camrs announcing that their vehicles have been broken into and stuff stolen.
Now I’m going back a while…love how you said you don’t need the poop bags…yet! Haha. Anywho I wonder if you accept “friend mail”? I didn’t see a PO Box listed so I thought I would ask here in hopes that you’ll see this. Thanks
Scott, that pastel colored jar looks a lot like American Bisque. They made lots of cookie jars, some are marked USA, not always, like McCoy and Shawnee. I see someone has already identified it as Hull. Should have known that pastel theme going on there, but American Bisque uses a lot of pastels too. If someone ever questions what you are holding (camera), tell them, it is your external pacemaker and that you think the batteries have gone dead. Philly Rocks with architecture!
Some of the music in this one reminds me of the background music in old cartoons. The other music was kind of like something out of a Clint Eastwood movie. " Play Misty for me" I have wondered if you ever go to church rummage sales. Do you have them in your area?
Thank you.... i really love those houses you drive by..... I enjoyed going thrifting with you... I have a question regarding selling online... how long do you keep things in your shop before (that is if you do? ) take the listing down? and if you do, what do yu do with the items that simply don't sell?? I hope you have a lovely day/night ... Cheers.
I like items to MOVE! So after about 3 months and a price reduction, if an items isn't getting any action I will often "pull" it and sell it at a flea market. It really all depends on the item.
AS A NEW ENGLANDER I have always heard PA has the best antique shoppes & flea markets! After thrifting around with you all summer I believe PA is the best state to find treasures!
You are right. To take a full day for thrifting, drive to locations, pay tolls, buy the items, take them in your home, clean them, measure, describe, pay for a listing, pack them, take them out for shipping, is all time. Let’s not forget money for cleaning supplies, packing materials, etc.
I feel sorry for the poor abandoned rooster. I LOVE the video from Philly Aids Thrift!! Thanks for showing it to us. Now...to figure out a way to afford a trip to Philly!
Sorry I meant the vcr type thing may be a beta. They came out befor the vcr and were soft of short lived, very expensive and use different drapes/disks
Actually, the "poorer" part of town is often where one finds the best stuff! The old hard working families back in the 20's, 30's and 40's took good care of their things and tended to hold on to their belongings for years and years.
Thanks Scott. I think if all us shoppers complained about the music, maybe they would turn it down. I seriously take earplugs with me when I thrift just to be able to concentrate.
Thank you for trying not to say grab. I really think it sounds crude! So many sellers say that they “grabbed this and they “grabbed that.” There are so many nicer words to use.
does anyone else ever notice the guitar music you hear the fingers dragging across the strings? I just noticed it in this video now I can't hear anything but that lol
I'm glad you are very fussy about the pieces you buy..(no cracks or chips)& your lamps are always rewired & your clocks are repaired! Your a Four Star Reseller Scott, keep up the good work!😊
Yes I’m commenting on an older video 😁 I have to say I love the driving through the neighborhood the buildings and homes are beautiful 😍 and information on history too. I have backyard chickens love the rooster you found. Nothing like the eighties it was a great era 😁

You are so welcome!
I love the yellow "whatever it is."

Hello Scott! The rooster is adorable. I understand why you sell some lower priced items, makes sense to me 😁. Enjoy your night!!
Have a great weekend Scott.
I thoroughly enjoy your videos!
Happy Friday the 13th Scott. Thanks for sharing the Philly AIDS Shop. So much to see and very quirky. If I’m ever in Philly definitely need to check that out. Hope you have a nice weekend. 🍁❤️

Got my ballerina today. It’s amazing. Thanks you so much for the care you put into the safe packing.
My pleasure and I'm sure it will be a lovely Christmas gift!
The Mid Century Magazine rack might have been a good pick up and future project......very nice video.....thank you Scott...
For that mid century lamp I think it might have used the large globe shaped d light bulbs that were on the market some years back,
I love everything about your channel, and (random) especially how articulate you are! Thanks for all your time, energy, and wisdom.❤
Oh goodness thank you. I've never thought of myself as particularly articulate but I try my best to use correct grammar. Thank you for the compliment.
Enjoy you so much. Love seeing your home and all your beautiful things. Give us a tour someday. So I'm looking at old videos and see things I want. When I go to your shop they aren't there! Darn! Its an old video.

NICE THAT MACHINE AT 14:49 SOLD FOR 1,450 BUCK BACK IN 1980 FIRST BETA-MAX MACHINE
I liked that maron lamp shade
I.am intrigued by the houses and the room or nook that is in alley area between the buildings I can't imagine being that close to your neighbors. Lol

Scott's Old Curiosity Shop I may need that rooster !!! ❤️
Oh and I believe your yellow dish is Hull, sunglow yellow with pink flowers....the set came with salt and pepper shakers.....
Fantastic! Thank you. So it was intended for kitchen use. Now if only I can find the S and P shakers!
@@oldcuriosityshop265 Yes, there are some available online...and you were right it was intended for grease
Mimzy Riepensell too pretty for grease, that’s for sure.
@@alohamd165 I agree too pretty
I have a large mixing bowl that looks awfully similar to that jar. My pink flower is slightly brighter. Same maker maybe?
The copley pot would be great for your ginger slaps😂😂
Yaay! I’m always so happy to see you! Love that candy dish! You made my day, you could show me anything and I’d be so happy! Now go play the piano for us ❤️🙏 #grateful

I often miss the country and wide open spaces. I have to leave the city to get my fix of nature. Hey...did you kill that fly yet!!!!
Scott's Old Curiosity Shop the incoming fall weather has helped bid him farewell!
I'm not sure I've ever told you this but I LOVE your video's and we Never miss a one. I love the rides to see the city and the hunt. Those are my favorites...xoxoxoxoxo
Thank you so much.

That was the best vcr made
I think after watching some of these videos ,I must live in antique heaven, and I'm not telling where that is!

That gold and green standing lamp was horrible! It reminded me of our house in the 1960's with the gold shag rug and olive green sofa.

The bridge toll is $5.00 to cross the Delaware river into New Jersey. It costs me about $80 a month just in bridge toll.
I hope you decide to use that beautifu love jar for your ginger snaps.😘
The dragonware is Moriage.
Hi, that was a Betamax by Sony, circa mid to late 70’s. My father was always a videophile and early adapter so we had one of the first, the VCR came after and won over the Betamax which had smaller tapes.
Betamax was a better format too
Great architectural shots!

Love shopping with you. The old buildings are so beautiful 😍
I'm happy you enjoyed.
Hi Scott~ Once again, love the tour of your city. The architecture is fabulous. That last store was very eclectic!
Really like the architecture.
At first glance I thought a drip jar then when you took the lid off and saw what kind of lip inside the jar I thought maybe a treat jar
Love your filming of the neighborhoods. The buildings are beautiful
Your city looks wonderful, love the old buildings, small haul, but a good one. 👍
Beats $15 for the Lincoln Tunnel and whatever the sales tax is these days! I miss NYC/NJ alot, and our thrift shops & flea markets are fairly worthless in Oklahoma but gas is cheap and so are the occasional tolls.
I love your music ! That last shop I didnt like at all, I kept saying omg ugh its the 80s and that music oh my ears.
I think it's a cookie jar, Yes, very wild store. I love the Green dish and the lamp.
Was that your building set back with the concrete towers?
Love your videos great to see Philadelphia, I've only seen a little. Love that green uranium candy dish. And I would say that other jar would be for cookies or biscuts.Thanks for sharing another great video. You are too funny. Your friend and admirer Cheryl 💖
Nice touch showing the area you drive through .Philadelphia looks lovely.😀🏴
Thanks. It's a very old city and some neighborhoods really show their age. Sometimes a bit rough around the edges but the old north eastern cities have weathered quite a bit of history. Thanks for watching.
Don’t forget about the rooster.
Indeed....he was mad I left him on the floor of the car!
Scott's Old Curiosity Shop : ugh, not for nothin, but theres a couple of popular TH-camrs announcing that their vehicles have been broken into and stuff stolen.
I will probably never get to your area. So thanks for sharing it with us.
Loose tea?
Now I’m going back a while…love how you said you don’t need the poop bags…yet! Haha. Anywho I wonder if you accept “friend mail”? I didn’t see a PO Box listed so I thought I would ask here in hopes that you’ll see this. Thanks
I need that 1920s uranium glass candy dish for my collection!!! ♡♡♡

If someone ever questions what you are holding (camera), tell them, it is your external pacemaker and that you think the batteries have gone dead. Philly Rocks with architecture!
Yes I totally forgot about Hull but you are so so right. They LOVED pastels. I'm going to use the pacemaker line! I love it.
Some of the music in this one reminds me of the background music in old cartoons. The other music was kind of like something out of a Clint Eastwood movie. " Play Misty for me" I have wondered if you ever go to church rummage sales. Do you have them in your area?
We do have them and yes...I go when I can.
Thank you.... i really love those houses you drive by..... I enjoyed going thrifting with you...
I have a question regarding selling online... how long do you keep things in your shop before (that is if you do? ) take the listing down? and if you do, what do yu do with the items that simply don't sell??
I hope you have a lovely day/night ... Cheers.
I like items to MOVE! So after about 3 months and a price reduction, if an items isn't getting any action I will often "pull" it and sell it at a flea market. It really all depends on the item.
You always find the best stuff! Ok this might sound random but you remind me of Michael Gross...a young one
Ha ha...yes....I've heard that a few times. :)
As always, love your videos and just listening to you talk. I still think about the 4 foot fork and get tickled LOL
AS A NEW ENGLANDER I have always heard PA has the best antique shoppes & flea markets! After thrifting around with you all summer I believe PA is the best state to find treasures!
That music around 17 minutes is so pretty...what is the tune? 🦋
Hum.....I don't know. Sorry.
Oh well...by the way thanks for the great content!
I literally laughed out loud at the poop bags "I don't need those yet" you're a hoot!!! I enjoyed this video as usual!!!
Wish the "waterfall"was close to that price here & that my local Goodwill was as good & inexpensice as yours appears to be.
You walked right past a 1980's touchtone phone. Those can sell for $5 or more on ebay! ;-)
You are speaking "tongue in cheek" aren't you!
@@oldcuriosityshop265 yes indeed.
You are right. To take a full day for thrifting, drive to locations, pay tolls, buy the items, take them in your home, clean them, measure, describe, pay for a listing, pack them, take them out for shipping, is all time. Let’s not forget money for cleaning supplies, packing materials, etc.
Many folks don't often realize that. :)
Everyday we see you it's a pleasure because you're so genuine. Lovely thrift treasures. Great Video and Great Content.
Awwww thank you!
I feel sorry for the poor abandoned rooster. I LOVE the video from Philly Aids Thrift!! Thanks for showing it to us. Now...to figure out a way to afford a trip to Philly!
Probably a Sony beta. They were big and heavy. Chest thrifts has several on eBay for comparison if you like
Sorry I meant the vcr type thing may be a beta. They came out befor the vcr and were soft of short lived, very expensive and use different drapes/disks
Waddle ya waitin’ for? Grab that chicken!
Great channel! As a collector I enjoy watching immensely!
Is that kind of a poorer part of town, it my explain the last k of antiques!
Actually, the "poorer" part of town is often where one finds the best stuff! The old hard working families back in the 20's, 30's and 40's took good care of their things and tended to hold on to their belongings for years and years.
Thanks Scott. I think if all us shoppers complained about the music, maybe they would turn it down. I seriously take earplugs with me when I thrift just to be able to concentrate.
Thank you for trying not to say grab. I really think it sounds crude! So many sellers say that they “grabbed this and they “grabbed that.” There are so many nicer words to use.
In the last shop I thought the pumpkins were really neat :)
Hmmmm, wonder what the picture of Gordon Ramsey was doing in there? lol
That store was rather interesting decor wise. LOL Still trying to wrap my head around the phone cable hair on that one mannequin head! LOL
It's a wild store!!!!
Dragonware!!!!
Love the rack I have used and old magazine rack to hold bath towels.
You live in a pretty town. That VCR probably cost $700 new, back in the day. Shot me back to Blockbuster Fridays with my kids!
does anyone else ever notice the guitar music you hear the fingers dragging across the strings? I just noticed it in this video now I can't hear anything but that lol
🙋🏽♀️ Enjoyed walking through the Philly Aids Thrift with you and I do like the (drippings?) jar. 😀
