I always enjoy your videos George! I am always amazed by all the information you are able to retain. I always think "I'll remember that when i see it next" but it just doesn't always stick! 😂 They have a very cool building as well as wonderful merchandise!
Hi Melissa and Doug. I really enjoyed listening to what u told George. You have a wonderful shop!!! I can see why your online auctions are successful 🎉
Cool! I love seeing people get into this in their 20s, that's when I discovered the joy and fun of antiques and vintage! I hope you find lots of great things to enjoy. I do like the painted brass, it gives it a little color and richness
I love the cuff links. My husband gave my son his father’s cuff inks from the 50’s. My son recently wore them for the ceremony When he was pinned to fly for United Airlines. I love passing down family heirlooms.
That was a fun tour! Thank you. Kids do struggle to learn to tell time and even worse is the ability to find their way on the road. GPS is wrecking the sense of direction in young people.
My kids learned to tell time. There were digital watches but we never allowed watches until they learned to tell time. It was a big deal at our house because when they learned to tell time they were rewarded with their own watch! I had 4 kids and 4 time reading celebration’s! 25:28
4:50 Handplane Bedrock style. Bottom right. Always recognizable because the side has a straight top instead of wavy. Always expensive and sought after. A nice video and a nice shop. Thanks.
@@surpriseitsus9622 different towns had different types so you must not have been where they were. I didn’t ever see the lever kind where I grew up, it might have had to do with freezing up in winter?
@TheAntiqueNomad I'm glad you figured I said lever. It could have been the frigid cold. I'm now living in the Phoenix area 😃 Minneapolis for a month in the summertime. Older and wiser.
Lots to see there. Thank u George 🎉 etched tableware is appealing. I have grandmother's clear etched goblets. I use at the table only had them over 50 yrs now 🎉
I had no idea you were from Washington, much less Bremerton. I am from Bremerton, too. We are close in age (I'm 51), but I do not recognize you from back in the day. I went to Bremerton High and my husband went to Olymoic High. What a small world. Pearl Jam's manager.....very cool.
I went to Olympic too! I graduated in 1982 though. It was fun getting to meet a few of the guys in the band when I went to their hangout where he had some of his collections
Good evening, George. Happy Halloween! 👻🎃💀🧛♀🧟 Those Art Nouveau oil lamps were fantastic! So happy to see they were never monkied with and electrified. That parlour lamps was a beauty, too. I liked those lamp sconces on either side of the camera. Loved the barley twist table. I'd go nuts in that crystal/mineral showcase. It wouldn't hurt my feeling to have an entire room, with the walls embedded with crystals 😜😂 Can those old fire extinguishers be refilled to use now? I have a few matchbooks - still full of matches - QE2, Twist cigarettes & from the original Carnival Cruises _Mardi Gras_ "Fun Ship". There are six decanters here full of my dad's marbles, from the 1940s. Some of them are the clay ones. I wouldn't mind owning that Scottish kilt brush. I liked that. I have a couple Peggy Nesbit Scottish dolls with which it would look good displayed. I loved that British cabinet! For $199.00...Oh yeah! Was that seated figure a clock topper? It reminded of those. I liked the Marilyn Monroe shampoo advertising piece there. I could definitely go for that _Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz_ book! That would be a great place to shop! Lots of really interesting items! Thanks for the take-along!
Wasn't it nice to see lamps not electrified! I like anything barley twist. Didn't know you were a mineral guy but I sure am appreciating them more these days too! I think you can still refill the extinguishers. I wish I'd kept my marble collection, it's neat you still have your dad's! Peggy Nesbit dolls, haven't seen one in awhile. I'm glad you had fun with this!
@@TheAntiqueNomad It's always great to see the old oil lamps that were allowed to keep their integrity! I've always really liked the minerals, but just no space to display them. If I had a collection, they would _have_ to be embedded in the walls to be able to display them 😂 The two Peggy Nesbit dolls I have are a piper and, I guess, a dancer. I really like her Scottish dolls. Dad's marbles were definitely played with, and many of them are, I think, chipped, but they were his, so they're definitely staying here. That was a fun shop, for sure!
I have thought of putting minerals out in the garden, they'd last as long as I need out there! Another thing where I could use more space. I really like the Peggy Nesbit dolls and I haven't seen a piper in ages
@@TheAntiqueNomad I'd be afraid to put minerals outdoors...someone might decide they liked them better than I did 😬😂 I can't remember the last time I saw a Peggy Nesbit doll, of any kind, out-and-about. The two I have are male dolls, and I think I've had them since the 1970s. They're under a cloche, to keep them protected. It would be interesting to know the history of Peggy Nesbit dolls. The market for dolls definitely isn't what it once was, so they might not be of much value, but I like them.
I love the English curio/wardrobe but I'm in North Carolina so sad for me. And I like Xeno's glass, they look like glass hankies that floated down and landed there. Fun video!
I'm a new subscriber. I wish i lived closer. Cle Elum, WA is quite far. But if I'm called over there I am happy to know about this store. Blue Bird in Ephrata, WA is very good unfortunately they consolidated and are not at the Cle Elum Tuckaway anymore. They had a gorgeous booth. I'm excited to see their new location one day hopefully soon. I have great things from their closeout sale.
Hi George!! I would love it if you could address this: you mentioned L. E. Smith in relation to typewriters? Fascinating and I would love to know more.
Oops, a little slip of the tongue! It was L.C. Smith, I did not mean to imply a connection to the glass maker, I just have L.E. Smith glass on the brain lately. L.C. Smith and his brothers created the first double keyboard, and merged with Corona in the 1920s
@@TheAntiqueNomad , you are so incredibly responsive to your fans. Thanks so much for the answer. I have done a little research on L. E. this year having bought a few pieces. You are much appreciated!!!
I collect pins for my 4 granddaughters. When they graduate they get 13 pins for each year of school. I have one granddaughter who has hers. If they go into a professional career they will have a vintage pin to dress up a business suit. My friend’s daughter is a lawyer and that is what she does.
That is a wonderful idea! I got a bunch in different colors for a friend of mine who has to dress up for clients and wrote a story about "her many colors" once, it was a fun way to present them
One note of caution for anyone feeling sentimental on the old reel-to-reel players and looking to pick one up - I follow a great YT channel called Skylabs Audio that are vintage stereo repair/resellers and they had a 'beware' episode that covered them as one of the best vintage technologies for audio quality (way better than LP) but they're so complicated with tons of moving parts that even they no longer service them - too expensive to repair and subsequent failures are too likely. So do your own homework, but it seems due-dilligence is warrented.
No, the three pieces I got were all priced half of retail where I sell. It's all about knowing your markets and knowing what can sell in a different place for more money. I paid about 40% of recent closed eBay sales for the lighter and about half for the other two items, so there's plenty of margin, especially because I don't just sell online and I can get more money in person when I'm not giving up half of it to ship the items to the buyer
Yes they do learn tell time still George. My Grandkids learned but not cursive. No need so no signature but as a Grandma I teach a little cursive there name.
It amazes me the wealth of knowledge that is stored in your head😮 Wish I had your memory! Very interesting tour.
What a wonderful shop! And that couple is lovely. This was a terrific video. I love learning from you. Thanks so mich❤
They really were nice people! And I love doing these
Excited! So are the owners, Melissa and John!
So glad you introduced them to me!
Loved every moment. Can't believe I ate bowls of "Captain Crunch" in the 60's and still here to tell the tale!
Me too
During college that was my husband s dinner unless I cane over 😂😂😂
Somewhere I read the cardboard was more nutrients 😂 really
What cool people George! Thank you for showing us lovely interesting things and introducing them to us.
Yes. I so agree ! Thank u George
So glad I got to meet them too!
I was flying back home from Spokane. The woman's basket ball team was on the flight.❤
Very cool !!!!
This was fun George, I love these places for sure. I am glad they let you in to share this store. Have a great day and safe travels.
