My mom has wooden carved box that is 1/3 again larger than those you showed. Hers is carved in a weastern motif and was her jewelry box in the mid 1940's
George, it is so many years since I was in the USA but I travelled the same route you are on now - minus the great roadside antique and vintage sales🙂 I am drooling here, wishing I was back there again with you going along that highway and finding these amazing treasures along with your encyclopedic knowledge of all things old and collectible. What a rush! Thank you so much for sharing and for teaching. You are such a generous person for taking us with you, teaching as you go. Stay safe on the road and I hope you convert your journey into serious bucks. From a big fan in Ireland.
I am so excited to hear that! I have dreams of traveling Ireland in similar fashion. I'm very excited to share these adventures with you and I'm glad this is relatable to you there.
@@TheAntiqueNomad Wow - that would be the coolest thing ever. Also because the nature of our Antiques are so different to what you have in the USA - so much of what we have was imported from England or Germany. Our own collectibles, made in Ireland really took off in the 1950/60's but resulted in us being only associated with Waterford and Beleek etc even though our Arts and Crafts were really exciting. Oh, maybe some day you will come here and we will learn about it together over a pint of Guinness - now there's a cliché!!!
The Bacarat tennis statue was a huge score. I hope I spelled it correctly. I wish I had time to spend a whole day to shop but at least I can do it with you virtually. Thanks for showing us all the treasures. Sending love and positive vibes to you and everyone who sees this comment .
Garage sales are more fun with you. I would have been disappointed if you hadn’t gotten the bookends! So you. Thanks for letting us see the sights along your way. And your legs! LOL
George..almost as exciting as Paris and London is discovering all new to you one could major road trip to do...as usual...thanks a LOT. I spy..I spy...with your commentary and sensitivity and just having a good time is the best along with your wonderful education. That was a neat lady you were talking to...it is always bittersweet but time..at any point in our lives,,,so just sharing the neatness of things with them as well as getting more info...makes for good feelings all around in selling and buying...interest in their history with an object as well as what it is all about. I am going to buy a rolling pin with red handles and a cameo..as soon as moolah is there and will check with you first. I saw this whole Colonel Sanders story on tv either A and E or the PBS..this is wonderful..thank YOU.
Time is the thing we have to consider the most I suppose! I'm really interested in all these items because they have their place in time and connect us to those who came before. I didn't see the Colonel Sanders story on tv, I'll look for that!
We had one of those scrolling signs in the garage. Gave it away to a local railroad museum, who were quite happy to get it. Nice little jewelry bits. I'd bet on that last onyx and ??sapphire?? piece being gold-filled but for a buck you couldn't miss.
Great video as always! Right now in Delta Junction it is over 80 degrees!! Here in the Interior we get both extremes...glad those 80+ days don't last too long, way too hot for me. Business is good and having a great summer...loved the shout out, my friend!
Thank you George, I thoroughly enjoyed this video as I usually do with all your videos. I love seeing the local scenery as much as the vintage finds. It was a pleasure. 😊
I liked the jewelry, the metal sphinx book shelf holders and fun looking at everything, but the waterfall was amazing!!!Thanks for your knowledge and enthusiasm for antique finds!!!😄😄
Well it was not Europe but London Ky and all the places along the way really surprised me for there natural beauty. Fun to see also where Kentucky Fried Chicken started. You were able to snatch up a few good pieces too. Thanks George!
Hi George, This was a fun and interesting video as always. I liked that bus topper with the street sign from Detroit. Just curious, do you remember how much they were asking for it? Thanks!
Like that bit of British accent, George, you did it justice...sort of 🤣 I noticed in the comments one of your viewers is in Ireland. My mom was from London UK & before she passed away my sister took her to England, Ireland & Scotland. Her mum was Irish & her dad was Scottish (i know, what a combo 🤭). She loved junking, but unfortunately bcuz of the beginning of dementia she didn't get the chance to while there. She did happen to take a fall while at my uncle's in England & broke her shoulder, but soldiered on & didn't want to leave early. I watch another youtuber that i believe lives in New Zealand or maybe Australia, not sure, but likes to take a break from his usual content, which is very odd history & did a tour of a junk shop, as he calls it, in Switzerland. While my military family was stationed in Germany in the mid 70s, my sister & i were fortunate enough to go on a school ski trip to Switzerland.
Good evening, George! There was a set of iron shelf brackets on the table there that caught my eye. Were they repros or old ones? I have a water set in the Iris and Herringbone. I'd like a decanter and glasses, too. The water set I have is in the marigold colour, but the clear is older. I'd like a wine set in the clear. Those cameos were fantastic...always a classic and never go out of style. I would've bought the monk on the milk glass. I do like the monk pieces. Mother has a set of the Pillsbury Dough Boy and Poppin' Fresh figures. She's had those FOREVER. That was a good deal on the sphinx bookends. I'm an ancient Egyptian nut. That looked to be a fun excursion! Thanks for the take-along!!! Oh yeah...did the dark wood shelf, elk platter or model biplane, at your sale, sell? If any of them are still available, I'd be interested.
I think they were real from what I could tell. I like the Iris pattern a lot, the water set is nicely shaped (particularly the pitcher). I never see the decanters! I like the milk glass monks but must admit I bought the more risque monk at the other store instead. I think I still have the elk platter, I'll try to remember to put it aside for you...also am going to pack the iron kettle tonight at last!
@@TheAntiqueNomad I've made some clock shelves using bits of antique nightstands that someone had put on the street for rubbish collection. I used antique iron brackets for them, so those caught my attention. I used to have several monk mugs but sold most of them. I usually go more for the Goofus Glass monk items now...when I can find them. They aren't too easy to find, though. Just let me know when you're ready to ship the kettle. If the elk platter is still there, just let me know about it, too.
Thought you meant London Ontario lol We have Paris, sevill Copenhagen Vienna goderich Stratford brussels kinkardine Cambridge 🇨🇦 Ontario Enjoy all your videos
I am with the lady's husband. I have a hard time letting go of things I love. This past weekend I didn't get anything for resale. This past weekend I didn't get a single thing for resale. I got a uranium glass jar mixer. A complete Handy Andy juice extractor - also uranium - and a HUGE Talavera fish - signed - that I just couldn't part with. And I went to pick up this kind of ugly red cookie jar on a high shelf and it felt really heavy. Discovered over 200 Akro Agate marbles - about half of them uranium or cadmium. Planning on adding them to my collection so I can fill up a gum machine one day. I may sell the non glowy ones but I need to do research. I have to at least cover my splurges! Actually I didn't spend much at all for the treasures - 40 total - along with a beautiful mother of pearl pair of opera glasses - missing the handle though. Looking now for a broken one so I can fix this one up. Huge clock and watch auction next weekend and I may go look for some tools and parts I can sell. My late husband and I owned Sands of Time Horological Workshop for years - sales, repairs and school - and I got a lot of money for his tools and machinery. Hoping July is a good estate sale month!
That really sounds like a wonderful buy for your collection! I'm a collector as well, I just need to sell the things I don't collect so I can enjoy the ones I do lol. By the way, "Willie Joe" who came to sell with me has a bunch of watch parts in old drawers for sale if you don't find what you need
@@TheAntiqueNomad I will keep that in mind. I m kind of careful about buying drawers of parts these day because of radium stuff being tossed in. I make sculptures that fit in the palm of your hand. One question I had - I found a signed Murano bird. I think it's a phoenix - pointing up to the sky. Has its label and is signed Renato Anatra on the bottom. The problem is it is on a square base and there are two small chips on the base - the bird is perfect - clear with pink inside. Seems ike it my be worth several hundred. Should I pay to have the chips ground out - they aren't very deep and won't effect it really - or sell it that way and just show pics? I want to get the most from it that I can. I found 3 Muranos in Savers one day - only one is hand signed and has the sticker though.
And by the way I am a Uraniym glass-a-hoic So is my son. But we haven't really advanced into Victorian Vaseline We do have two bridge lamps though. Super buys on both.
George, sorry we missed you on your visit to Corbin! I hope you found our little town friendly. Cumberland Falls is one of my favorite places here. Winter, spring, summer or fall it is always beautiful.
I was very sad to discover that my expensive new Airpods are really good at picking up every sound except that of my own voice! I will be exchanging them for the previous generation which was much better. I collect the 1930s Manhattan and was surprised when I first learned of the 1890s version as well!
can you please make a video showing how to pack glass and pottery for shipping please. there should be a guide for thrifter/flipper should have to go by. i've had 2 horrible experiences lately with purchases. both hummel figurines from 2 different flippers. one packaged in too small a box with not even enough packing and the other just not enough packing.
Wondering how our current economic inflation is affecting the vintage market? What has your experience been, if any. I personally have been full of envy for the neighbor’s vintage Datsun. ❤️
It's a mixed bag, it hurts in that people may travel less (people shop for antiques/vintage when on vacation) but helps in that antiques/vintage look like better alternatives to new as prices rise
@@TheAntiqueNomad - Thank you! I suspected that repurposed and reused items would be more appealing at this point. I enjoy “free lance studying” economics and businesses - these things affect real life and I like to see if I can analyze enough to see where we are going.
It is so frustrating to have spent a whole lot of money on the new generation of Airpods only to discover that they amplify ALL the surrounding noise over your own voice. I'm sending them back
Hi George! when you narrate items you see - be aware that the noise around you comes sometimes louder then your voice. Many times it is impossible to hear your voice.
Thank you so much! I did all the photography, it was a real learning experience but friends of mine who had published Fenton collectors' books helped me out
@@robnorwood3591 Rob… Yes!🙌🏻 I’m making a small spare room into an MCM reading room. No T.V. Your right! Not put on the shelf but a therapeutic time. 👍♥️🐩

Everything looks so interesting George! And you know about so much of it! Love this channel! 🙂 I have to come back and look sometimes..
I'm so glad! Please keep coming back and we'll have fun
Thank you for the tour and lessons George.
💖
Thanks George. Fabulous 🥳
I always, enjoy traveling with you George, and all the knowledge, you bestow to all your subscribers!
Watching late. This was a amazing video George. You showed such beautiful parts of Kentucky. Thank you.
Thanks for taking us along. Loved the extra of KFC & waterfalls!🥰❤️
So glad! I really enjoy doing these
This was one of my favorite videos you have put out. TY
missed the live but watched the replay. This looked like such a fun trip! I love that waterfall~ Thanks, George!
Such a pretty place! I'm glad you enjoyed it
We had one of those scrolling signs in the garage. Gave it away to a local railroad museum, who were quite happy to get it. Nice little jewelry bits. I'd bet on that last onyx and ??sapphire?? piece being gold-filled but for a buck you couldn't miss.
Another home run George. I live the closing. I'm a sucker for waterfalls.
Thanks George for all your hard work ... Hi Xeno
Thank you. Loved seeing the falls.
Great video as always! Right now in Delta Junction it is over 80 degrees!! Here in the Interior we get both extremes...glad those 80+ days don't last too long, way too hot for me. Business is good and having a great summer...loved the shout out, my friend!

It sure did! Thanks
I learn so much from you. Thanks for helping us resellers out - You Rock ❤❤❤
Always Interesting!!
Glad you think so! I enjoyed it too
❣
You are full of surprises!
Lol indeed
Hey George. Watching as long as I can.
Thanks, Deb!
Wow. I loved the Saturn shaped teapot. The jewelry was great too.
Thanks for the sightseeing ride-along. Really enjoyed that mixed with the sales. Have fun!

Love the waterfalls. Looks lijke so much fun, we don't have this type of thing in NJ
It really is!
Thank you for coming our area. Try the Peddlers Mall in Somerset the next time your in our area. Love you George.
I've been there, even videoed it last year, good store! Thanks so much for your love and support
That Clifton / Detroit bus sign is from Cleveland! Probably from the old CTS system that pre-dated the current RTA.
I should've figured that since the people selling were from there! Thanks for the info.
@@TheAntiqueNomad I looked at that and thought "Wait a minute - I rode that bus!"
Yes! Clifton and Detroit Avenues traverse the west side of Cleveland into the suburb of Lakewood. Cool sign!
I just love this trip you are on. I'm hoping to see you in Marrietta, Ohio in July 👍🌹👍
I think you came upon some real goodies! That etched glass block was curious.
It sure is! I had to get it but I haven't been able to interpret it yet
Hi George, This was a fun and interesting video as always. I liked that bus topper with the street sign from Detroit. Just curious, do you remember how much they were asking for it? Thanks!
$400 and another viewer told me it actually is from Cleveland!
