My tough guy husband is obsessed with your channel . We really enjoy the way that you give a little bit of History without turning it into a 10 minutes scenario for each item.
That's great! I try hard to pack in a lot of different stuff for guys, gals and all types of collectors because I want everyone to find something they think is fun...and knowing just a bit more about things helps
I think shop owners are free to price stuff at whatever they want. The market decides in other words shoppers will buy or they won’t. The shop owner will survive, thrive or close. It is not my concern. Obviously we all enjoy paying lower prices but they are free to make their own business decisions. Thank you for teaching us all so much.
I adore the 3D artwork. I have a large (42 or 45) inch horse farm 3D art plus a lil smaller of man and woman taken a horse drawn buggy ride in the snow. It's quite a task keeping them as clean as I like,so now I only use for holidays or summer time decor. I'm so glad you grabbed that one. I'd hate to see someone's work hit the landfill. Be heartbreaking for me. My grandmother or maybe it was her sister did one of the two I own. The other was thrifted. Thank you for sharing this one. I never see this type work anymore.
I have a lot of cast iron cauldrons, Dutch ovens, pots and pans, grills, griddles, wafer presses and cornbread muffin trays in oval and sleeping cat patterns. I need to restore and season a number of them. I also have various utensils and tripod adjustable spits and S hooks that were Blacksmith made…and Dutch ovens. I still use most of them, and all my other cooking and baking is done in clay or cast iron…it’s the best. I will never stop using them. I still have some Pyrex pie plates, cake pans, and casseroles used by my Grandmother, which I still use today…the most interesting pie dish is a moonstone pale blue translucent., and has a metal serving stand…I love it. No aluminum, steel, or plastic in my kitchen, and never will be. My terracotta bread loaf pan and my cast iron one are the best I have ever used.🖤🇨🇦
Your knowledge always amazes me, I learn something new all the time. Was at a flea market and talking to a vendor about vintage items and told him I learnt a lot from you and Dr. Lori and the rest of RUclips community. He’s going to check your videos out. 🤗🤗🤗
@@TheAntiqueNomad Oh, the nostalgia when I saw it in your video, though! I remember emptying out the large cone filter that went inside! I have found vintage Electrolux parts that I have successfully resold. The name screams mid century and I just love it!
When I’m shopping with my family in tote, I follow the 3 and go rule. If I’m in a booth and I look at 3 items and they are overpriced I walk away because I know the rest will more than likely be overpriced and don’t want to waste all my limited shopping time on disappointment. Yes, I’m one of those who has a fear of missing out. Thanks for the great video!
I'm with you on the "it's listed on Ebay for______". Drives me nuts. What most people don't do is bother to check what an item actually "sold" for on Ebay. They also rarely look at the item they want to sell with a critical eye for things such as wear, damage, maker or manufacturer, etc, etc. Subtle differences in items can mean huge differences either way in somethings end value.
The Mother-in-Law plaque would be suitable for mine, (if she was into those kind of things)…we have a great relationship…as my husband did with my Mother. Some of us do get lucky…and we were even able to travel internationally with each of them on separate occasions while they were healthy enough to still handle such travel, and all had great stress free vacations…creating wonderful photos and memories to last a lifetime. I know you are joking, but our Mums welcomed our chosen mate into their Families from almost the start…as soon as they knew we were serious. And all our various Siblings did too, we were fortunate, but I could do a better statement.🖤🇨🇦
LOL..Barking up the wrong tree..a saying I would use..the memory and situation..hilarious...good luck on a busy weekend no doubt. I had a childhood flashback of a hem of a dress at a store with those old powder dusters...and watching my grandpa at a suit place...getting the day going right being here...be blessed dear George.
I discovered your channel last night and it was hard to stop watching. You are so knowledgeable, interesting, and have a great voice. Absolutely fabulous; my new favorite!
Had a flashback from one of the items in this video. My folks had an ultraviolet comb we were allowed to play with as kids. (Although the piece was older, this was 1960's.) Haven't thought about that for years! It gave small shocks on our scalp. I was probably 10 years old at most, plugging it in... shocking my 8 year old brother, etc. I'm sure my mom thought, "If it entertains them for five minutes, hallelujah."
New Subscriber here! And I am sooo happy I did- I am hooked George! This is the 1st video and I already feel blessed with new information on vintage/antique items.. not only are you informative but very entertaining as well. :) Jeffrey, Jocelyn and Misty sent me your way! Looking forward to new videos as well as looking back on previous ones.. thank you!
I'm so happy you subbed and that you're enjoying it! I usually show a lot more retail antiquing but it'll give you lots to see and an idea of what thrifted bargains are worth in real world antique shops and shows
@@TheAntiqueNomad Well I'm already on video 2 and I'm telling you- I'm super impressed with the videos. I love all the extra details you provide (like scroll info!).. they weren't kidding when they said you are a wealth of knowledge and one of the best at sharing it! Kudos!!!
My grandparents lived on Mayfield lake in Washington near Centralia. I grew up visiting them every summer and we drove once a week into Centralia and Chehalis. Funny enough the thing I remember the most is Yard Birds😂 I think that was in Chehalis? Anyhow, I don’t often hear people comment on that area of Washington so your comment brought me lots of nostalgia 💕 Yea I hate eBay signs at yard sales. So annoying
I did a video about Centralia square antique Mall last winter! I really enjoy that town and I helped contribute to them rebuilding the yardbird, it's not the store it once was but it still is in use
Grew up in Southern Indiana till my trees years moved out West. New Harmony is a lovely town to venture to and was so clean back 60+ years ago. Loved going there often had relatives living quite close to New Harmony. Good memories. Thank you.
I was almost crying. I would love to find the bedroom furniture and the table with chairs that cheap. But alas it’s just not available here for those prices. Love your channel 👍
I found that "passed thru the Horse" pic in a thrift store the other day and paid 1.99.. I just had to have it . I was like OMG! George just got that same one.. I'm excited .. Thanks Gorge!!🤗
@@TheAntiqueNomad I found you from watching Jocelyn and Jeffery and I'm so glad I did. You and Jeffery made my day today as Jeffery replied to a question on his live show and your reply to my comment ..you guys are like celebrities to me. I was a bit star struck..lol. Anywho, I'm a picker/reseller too and want to thank you for responding back to me. I have learned so much..I appreciate all your hard work and informative video's. Now, how much is this SLEEPER..?. LOL Have a great day and I'll see you on the tube.. 🤗
LOL My dad loved his mother-in-law, but my mom couldn't stand hers. Yikes on those prices in that lady's shop! Thanks for another fun and educational video!
You are so welcome! Funny about moms-in-law, they seem to come in "really great" and "really not" versions. That woman thought the nice things she had were REALLY great as well
I look at the prices and it will tell me that they really don't want to sell but grudgingly do so if necessary. That is what that one shop reminded me of. Then they go print out ebay listings and expect someone to buy at or above that price lol. They don't even have the excuse of being from the "show me" state. Thanks for taking me along with you have a great day
It was nice to have a tour around the estate sales etc. with you, thanks George. The Bencini figurine and Drews pixie were my favourites, both really good finds.
Thank you for another video, I really liked the plaque about the oats, I got several minutes of laughter from reading that, I have been watching your videos before I go yard to yard sales on Saturday mornings so that I'm in the frame of mind to spot and purchase vintage items, it really seems to be working as I have found Culver barware, speckled Homer Laughlin, Lone Ranger books from 1939, 1941 & 1943, Regal pottery and a foldable flat iron. Your videos are very inspiring and help me during my treasure hunts. I don't know how you retain all that knowledge but I'm glad you do and that you were willing to share information. I look forward to your next video. thank you again and have a great day
That makes me so happy! I want everyone to have fun and enjoy this great vintage world. I'm impressed at your buy list, you're hitting some good yard sales!
I really love the way you point out treasure and tell us exactly what it is. Identifying things is difficult for me. I know certain catagories , but if I am going to make it I really need to learn more and work at it more . I appreciate your help. You are so very talented
I so appreciate your wide range of knowledge about the antique and vintage items. The history you share about the items & the towns you visit make your videos a fascinating, must-watch. Thanks for sharing your knowledge so generously!
Well thanks, I really think history is so much more interesting if you illustrate it with the real stuff people had and talk about their lives through that
Thank you! I lucked out, you can get great deals sometimes...on the other hand, I spent a lot more in the antique shops than the garage sales, so there's things to find everywhere
George, I enjoy hitchhiking a ride with you down those country roads to explore the old antique shops. Thanks for sharing your knowledge along the way. ♥️ Dorothy from Boston, Ma.
I had that exact napkin holder which stopped my heart. We got it at sturbridge village in 1977. We had a card for 100 dollars at the museum @ sturbridge village
When you picked up some free things there was a piece of Tupperware that I wish you had gotten. It was a Tupperware powder sugar sifter. Use for pancakes or waffles. I have one and love it to dusting all kinds of desserts.
Hi George how was Springfield show I hope you did well I miss going and found out that crazy lamp lady Jeffrey and thrifter junker was there I probably wouldn't have seen them but with you there too WOW WHAT AN exciting place to be AS SPRINGFIELD OHIO ANTIQUE SHOW
Hi! I learned that after I made this video, it's great that I still am learning too! Thank you for the refresher, I've only seen one trapunto piece since then
@@TheAntiqueNomad we all have things we like and know about. That’s why I like the vintage community, we all learn a lot from each other about things that might not be what we would otherwise know a lot about. Love your content! I learn lots from you too!
@@TheAntiqueNomad You oughta give it a whirl George you definitely have a superior speaking voice I'm a new friend of yours-Pam on wheels from northeast Louisiana
George your not with the crew shopping the huge flee market in Ohio? Oil slick in a puddle. Never heard this one, but very true. Who would ever think the home interior decor would be so collectible. Wish I still had mine. Lol. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I learn a lot. Where can I buy books on antiques? Ebay is usyally unaffordable for me.
Hello! I thought that was an apt description, I notice it's mellowing a little with age but still definitely not like the old stuff. It's always a surprise what people want as time goes by!
I’m from this area. My husband and I were in New Harmony last weekend. We love New Harmony. We were in the same antique store. I hope you ate next door at the Yellow Tavern.
My neck o the woods...St Joe, IN! I'm still wearing a mask because so many around here don't - duh. I have not been to Cynthiana to shop...I mean, why? lol. New Harmony is another matter tho. Thanks, enjoyed it.
Cool! I wanted to go back this year but missed it. New Harmony is one of my favorite places and I can't wait to go back to shop and do appraisals there next spring
"They were clearly barking up the wrong tree". LOL
I just couldn't help myself...people were delusional back then I guess!
Y. M. C .A !!! Gotta lov em! LOL

Whenever I see eBay printouts of listed items at yard sales, I turn around and leave. It annoys me like no other.
Thank you! It's so dumb. If you think you can get it on eBay, then sell it on eBay!
they do that on a local thrift shop. Very annoying.
@@dorisp9127 I came across one of those folks: everything in the shop was retail +, and the seller had a list of prices.
I left immediately.
Obviously your knowledge is a big draw to your videos but I live for your cheeky commentary as well 😂
I appreciate that! I get that vibe from knowing you as well, I look forward to seeing you again and we can tour and snark along together lol

Some us those girls knew we were barking up the wrong tree but loved to dance to their songs. 😉😊🇨🇦
Lol yes they had a fun time and it was contagious
Aw, I hear the the birds chirping, nice 🐦

The unique thing about you is that as you go through the items you give a brief history and current value!!!! Thanks
Thank you! That's my thing, I like to have you with me and tell you what I see. I hope you'll come along on all my adventures
Yard saleing and antiquing with you is like a Master Class in collectibles!
That's very kind of you to say! Thanks for subscribing and hope to see you in comments again
We had a Filter Queen for YEARS (which I hated because it seemed so clunky), but now that it's gone (we GAVE it away), I miss it!
Yes and yes! I didn't buy that one for the same reason. I should have.

I’ve never seen the Mickey Mouse pencil sharpener! I’m amazed it survived.
Not a whole lot out there, they were treated roughly by their young owners

I'm so satisfied while watching. Looking and learning and feeling as if I'm with a trusted sweet friend. Thankyou George.
XO, Di
That makes me happy! I want it to feel that way
The horse fabric stitched, stuffed and framed is a craft called Trapunto quilting
Trapunto quilting! Thank you for telling me, I should've figured it had a name but I've rarely run into that style
"I think a lot of that stuff's gonna stay in that shop"
THE MADMAN
Had to call it like I saw it lol
I owned one of the quack devices from the 1800’s. We enjoyed it and would use it and show friends the absurdity of the device. 😃
Those pixies really are cute! After 2020 I understand the colors and whimsy from the depression era, it is uplifting to look at.
Yes, exactly. I think antiques and vintage are making a comeback now because people long for a feeling of stability
Your just a fountain of information. 😊❤️👍
Would you expect anything less from someone who calls himself the antique nomad? :)
He’s awesome!!
I appreciate that, I want to tell you what I can so we have more fun together as we toodle around the antique world
You are too kind, thank you for being here!
Love love what this learning 75 year old lady is learning.Always loved your passion also.so, I learn from the best.

That's funny! I'm sure my parents didn't have any concept of what they let us play with, if it kept us busy it was safe enough!

I'm so glad! I love sharing with you
I love shopping with you. I did notice you passed by an pretty blue opalescent bowl.
I did pass that but only because it had a chip that I could see but you couldn't in the video
Thanks for the fun
Good & fair attitude. Enjoy your "free day" everyone needs one 🎆 Take care. About the mask, good for you, even the VP doesn't care (couldn't resist).

love your knowledge and the way you talk so calm , thank you for sharing.

Hi George how was Springfield show I hope you did well I miss going and found out that crazy lamp lady Jeffrey and thrifter junker was there

It was fun! I hope you get to come in the future, I'd really enjoy meeting you as well.

Aww thanks!
The “puffy” horse framed textile, the technique has a name. It’s called trapunto. From the Italian “to quilt”.
Hi! I learned that after I made this video, it's great that I still am learning too! Thank you for the refresher, I've only seen one trapunto piece since then
@@TheAntiqueNomad we all have things we like and know about. That’s why I like the vintage community, we all learn a lot from each other about things that might not be what we would otherwise know a lot about. Love your content! I learn lots from you too!
And rust glass bowl wow I'm like a kid in a candy store
Yes they had neat stuff
"Now there's a plaque no one would ever buy" 🤣🤣🤣
I really do think highly of my mom-in-law but I'm a lucky one
@@TheAntiqueNomad That you are! 👍🏽
Yep, I certainly would have kept going......
Interesting video.
Glad you think so! Please join me for future videos, I try to show a lot of variety from all over the place
Thanks for sharing your trip and all your knowledge 😊.
Thank you for coming along with me!
I am an audio book addict. You would be great as a narrator.
Thank you! I've had a few people suggest that, I think I'd enjoy it.
@@TheAntiqueNomad You oughta give it a whirl George you definitely have a superior speaking voice I'm a new friend of yours-Pam on wheels from northeast Louisiana
The most interesting part of this episode was the military stuff. Thanks, George!
I thought so too, honestly it was the most unusual. I'm not generally a thrifter/garage saler, I prefer estate sales where you see a lot in one place
Really enjoyed this one! 👍
Me too! I missed the townwide sale this year I think
George your not with the crew shopping the huge flee market in Ohio? Oil slick in a puddle. Never heard this one, but very true. Who would ever think the home interior decor would be so collectible. Wish I still had mine. Lol. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I learn a lot. Where can I buy books on antiques? Ebay is usyally unaffordable for me.
Hello! I thought that was an apt description, I notice it's mellowing a little with age but still definitely not like the old stuff. It's always a surprise what people want as time goes by!
Enjoyed "traveling" through Indiana with you! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I hope you'll enjoy part 2, we'll tour the town in more depth
The MIL sign...I'm friends with my MIL and my sister loved hers. Another sister had a MIL who was horrid!
The turd bird!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mine is actually quite great, but I had to show it because there's plenty of people like your other sister...
@@TheAntiqueNomad oh I get it and did read your note on screen. Just wanted to add my 2 cents...or is it 1 cent really 😆😉
We are collecting minutes and regular size
Fun!
Thank you! I had a good time as well
Great video.
Thank you! I'm glad you commented, hope to see you in future video chats and comments
I’m from this area. My husband and I were in New Harmony last weekend. We love New Harmony. We were in the same antique store. I hope you ate next door at the Yellow Tavern.
They weren't open when I passed, too early but it looked great! I'm glad you had fun there too, what a special place
Cool cars,I love old cars & signs
Me too!
I had a booth in the Antique emporium about 20 years ago
What a neat shop! I imagine you had fun with it
Clearly barking up the wrong tree...I had to chuckle at that one.
Lol! I mean, c'mon...
Never had the “Village People” on my wall but I had a crush on the Indian and the cop. Lol but I did have a Fonzy poster.
The girls in my school all liked the construction worker lol
Another great video George!
Thanks again! I'm glad you had fun and were in the chat
“ there’s all sorts of reasons not to buy that. “ 😂🤣😂
I couldn't bring myself to do it! A number of viewers said I should've, I'm sure it'd sell
Love your show I have learned a lot hopefully I can remember all of it
My neck o the woods...St Joe, IN! I'm still wearing a mask because so many around here don't - duh. I have not been to Cynthiana to shop...I mean, why? lol. New Harmony is another matter tho. Thanks, enjoyed it.
Cool! I wanted to go back this year but missed it. New Harmony is one of my favorite places and I can't wait to go back to shop and do appraisals there next spring
Thanks for all of the information this is a great video!
Thank you I had fun putting it together!
Lol village people. Yea we were pretty dumb, didn’t quite comprehend the tree we were barking up was not the right one for us.
I still love them tho!!
I have to admit I secretly liked them in the day
Great video, as usual.
You flatter me, what people like varies but it was fun to show estate sale/garage sales from my view
