    You are the content missing on You Tube. Actually teaching and not focusing entirely on what I payed and what I can sell it for. There are too many crappy resellers picking up “vintage-80-90s labeled junk” and “so cute” decor with the promise of paying $.50-$1.00 per item and selling for $39.99 + free shipping. That is just getting old! When people find you, the channel should just skyrocket. Hang in there and persevere, I know you will make it! I have a very good feeling.

      That is so kind! I know the current trend is for everyone to be focused on the dollars and cents of it, but none of it's worth anything if there isn't the love for it first

    I am in Bardstown, Kentucky. The antique stores/malls are gone, leaving one mall left and up for sale. The online platforms, aging and dying collectors, have lead to the demise of brick and mortar stores here. I have a 40 year collection of flamingos (200+) Maddux of California, Brad Keeler, and yes- Will George. Amazing!

    • @TheAntiqueNomad
      @TheAntiqueNomad  4 года назад

      I just was in Bardstown last month, and I noticed the new vendor Mall had better collectible stuff than I expected, I guess because the old malls are gone. I'm surpised a place with such historic significance can't support antiques and vintage collectives, but it's a commitment off time. I'm glad there's still malls around so I can do the Nomad thing!

    Hi, George. Thanks for sharing this place with us. Talk about the thrill of the hunt! If you're ever so inclined, I'd be really interested to hear what you had to say about the pieces towards the end when the audio issues started. Can you clip that portion to make a separate video and dub in the audio? I've never done anything remotely like that so maybe it's more trouble than it would be worth. Thanks again for sharing your adventures and knowledge with us.

    Well...I missed the premier...too much going on today.
    WOW!, that shop was seriously packed! I did spot one piece of Orange Tree - a blue mug, at 13:33...I'm still looking for those three pieces, and was pausing the video every time Carnival Glass appeared :-) I don't like the pattern in blue/amethyst, but the pattern did catch my attention.
    I think Bristol is a sleeper, too. I really like Bristol, whether it was made in England or the U. S. I have a Bristol epergne, and a couple other pieces of it.
    I liked the items you bought. Those bottle toppers would be a good start to a collection of them.
    Maybe I can catch the next premier :-| If you ever do one live, you know I'll be screaming "Slow Down" a lot ;-) Looking forward to the haul video.

      It was very last minute, I didn’t think I (or anyone else) would be free on Christmas to chat but our gathering wrapped up early, had a few viewers and it was fun! I’ll try to plan one where I can give more notice.
      That shop was crazy full! I guess 40 years accumulation will do that. I didn’t see much Carnival though. I’m glad you see something in Bristol glass, it was kind of astounding to me that a filthy Swanky Swig was more valuable than a handpainted art glass urn, but I’m seeing younger collectors liking traditional again so maybe that will change. Meanwhile, I do like those quirky bottle toppers!

There could be an original copy of the Declaration of Independence in there, and they would never know it -- WOW!, that place was full! I have always liked Bristol glass. It almost has a "misty" look to it, and I've always liked that. That is really great that you're noticing the younger collectors are going for the traditional items again...as long as they don't paint the furniture pieces. Putting paint over all that fantastic wood grain is like putting Mother Nature in a gaudy body bag.
      A person could get a collection of those bottle toppers going, and it wouldn't take up a lot of real estate...nothing like all the water, etc., sets I have... :-|
