- Wow! What an amazing turnout of energized collectors, resellers, RUclips viewers and content creators...the Springfield, Ohio Antique Extravaganza is living up to its name!
This is a fun, longer look at this major national antique vintage event, starting with a swath of our friends who visited on the day that was my busiest ever at a Midwest show! People from all over the RUclips vintage community showed up early, viewers and creators alike, and I had such fun having them converge on my tent...I tried to shop with them in mind, and most leave the booth happy (you'll see more about their purchases on their channels, listed below!)
The next day, I sneak off to shop, and some of what we see is really mind-blowing! Outsider art and Egyptian antiquities are just a few of the really unusual finds in a nearby booth. A Gibson Girl ribbon cabinet, tables of Rookwood and Roseville Pottery, a row of oil lanterns and a stack of cheap road signs all add to the collage of vintage at this massive show.
Across the aisle from me, a RUclips viewer is set up and doing her first ever real world show! So much fun to share stories, give each other tips and hints, and a few bargain deals to boot...it's just so tremendous to see the real world of antiques & vintage and the online world come together.
We end the day at Copper Top Farmhouse (now an Air BnB), thanks to the generosity of Jocelyn @CrazyLampLady and the owners of @HeartofOhioAntiques ! A look through this antique-appointed home, and you might be making Springfield, Ohio your destination for the next Antique Extravaganza in May 2024.

Aww thank you! I try to be, it just makes life nicer for everyone
Agree, but you just know he's got sass lol
Great dry humor too. This guy is the best, hope to meet him one day.
George I admire your selling skills. One of these days I’ll meet you in person.
That will be fun !
George you just have the best way of making everyone you meet feel special. You can see it on their faces. ❤❤❤
Aww thank you I just am so excited people are finding this and having fun!
I agree - your booth was just a hub of excitement for You Tubers
How very nice of Jocelyn and Dagny to let you stay with them when your lodging fell through! And what a beautiful farmhouse filled with lovely antiques and interesting vintage items.
It was really kind of them to have me
@@TheAntiqueNomad I really enjoyed the live from there!
@@LauraMe... Me too!
George you are so loved and respected by so, so many. Keep doing what your doing
Much love , Linda
I so agree!! I love him too! I hope to meet him someday!
@@kimeverhart6253 me too
Another Linda seconds that ! 😊❤ Edit- he is just as nice in person, too!!
You all flatter me greatly but I sure am glad to be part of this community
Hey, George Fans, let's Share his video with a friend or 2. Support George, he deserves it !
Love seeing the vintage/reselling community gathering. Almost like church without the potluck luncheon!😂
They need to plan that for next year lol
@Brendabatt6874 No one wants me to cook, I promise you
Just bring the drinks!
Love how you introduced that lady who has helped in the past, so nice
I don't usually put viewers on the spot, but she was willing and I figured she's worked for us after all!
Thank you George. There are so many kind resellers out there who do it for the love of antiques but you top them all.
That is really nice of you to say
I really enjoyed meeting you at the Springfield Extravaganza. I am Christina aka vintagelife67 on Whatnot. I am the lady playing with the Dukakis boxing puppet in your video. You are so very kind and helped me and Tom aka olivevintage on Whatnot by identifying our Bimini Cordial sets via pictures. I have been watching your videos for years and learning so much valuable information from you. You are the best!❤
Love me some George🧡🧡
Thank you!
I learn soooo much from watching you - you are a wealth of information. More than that, I love the fact that you pay it forward and share your knowledge with others that are starting out.
I feel like I'm paying back for all the people who did that for me when I was starting out
You are a magnet attracting all the pod-people of RUclips. I also look forward to seeing you at a show someday!
I hope I get to your area or vice-versa!
So great to see all my you tube people and you ❤️
Wow. Another outdoor class from George University! This one seemed like a whole semester of information! So so thankful for your time and effort. Rest & Blessings to you and yours.🕊️
Thank you, George, fun time
What a great video! ❤️ you are the antiques ambassador! We love you!
Aww thanks! I like that moniker
Oh George! So fun to see everyone run up to you! You know, I look UP to you; and I have learned so much from (YOU of course, but yeaah!) so many of these other collector-resellers as well. Everybody brings something to the party, that is for sure! What a great Show!
Well that is the spirit behind what we do, I hope! I felt the same way
so many you tubers to watch, so little time...love watching your videos, I learn so much
I love it when you identify new channels to follow! Plus it was great to see Shawn Blevins in the real world! Great video George! :)
Thank you! I really want people to get to know other people in this cool antique and vintage community, I figure I get to travel more and so I can bring it together sometimes
Great to see Amy,Irf and Marla.on your video! You and Amy are my favorite resellers.
They are really nice people
George, this video was everything! It’s so good to see so many resellers, and lots of young blood to the profession. It’s truly a welcome sight. Keep doing what you’re doing. Your passion for your craft is contagious. Take care darling and please send Xeno my love xx
Hey love your comment girl ❤
Well thank you! It felt good. It is so nice to see it starting to transcend generations again
Amy is the best and shares so much knowledge.
She's very helpful that way, I so appreciate that from everyone in this business
George is a walking Encloypedia!
I love watching your channel. I always learn something new pretty much every single video.
I just started selling vintage at the Sacramento vintage faire. I enjoy it very much. I enjoy the interaction with the people. I sold for years in the 80's and 90's at all the flea markets until my kids came along.
Now my children are adults so now I am doing what I love again.
That is so cool! It's fun, this is a thing you can get back into when it suits you! The thing is, a lot of what you saw back then at the fleas is what is hot vintage now
Love the vintage pieces and all the friends you have!
You are such a kind and caring person! Your voice is so relaxing also!❤
What a great house 🏡💚
It sure was!
Thanks for sharing such a loving group of people!
You bet!
Oh, my George, this was fun. Terrific video, nice people, good weather. Thank you for taking us along!
Yes! So glad I could.
I love watching everyone. I hope to meet y'all sometime.
Glad we got to say hello for a second George! You are a busy man ALWAYS! I think your checkout line was clear down the isle! Hope the show was amazing for you. See you in May!
There isn't anyone i would love to hang with like you. Genuinely a great man!
This was great for sure. I got to watch most of this last night but needed to see the rest as well. Love that BNB all the antiques around. WOW!!! You have a great day and safe travels
Awesome! Thank you!
George this video is awesome how you show all most all the ppl I follow on utube I meet you threw the crazy lamp lady so thank you for sharing 😊
I'm so glad you found me through Crazy Lamp Lady, she's a very cool cat!
Fantastic George
Congrats on 53K soon to be 53 million

Hi George and friends!
I always learn something!!! You are incredible!!!!
This video was great!! I loved everything about it!! Adding in Copper Top was a treat!❤
Such a fun weekend! My favorite finds all weekend came out of your booth. I hope to see you in May! ❤
Thank you! i"m so glad you all had fun and that I had stuff you like
Omgosh! George, what an amazing video. You weren't kidding this is HUGE! How awesome the newbies were able to get a spot by you. I'd say if you wanted to only do a couple shows that is would be worth doing the 2 there! I'm headed over to watch the aftershow now. Haven't been feeling well so slept right through last night!😢 Take care, see you soon!
Hi, Laura! I was not kidding. I was so pleased for everyone to come and have fun, and I plan to be back. I hope you feel better!
You're the best. So impressed by your knowledge, more impressed by your friendliness. Really enjoyed all of the unique pieces you spotted and shared.
Love that ribbon case ❤️❤️🦩🌴🌞
So many amazing treasures to see🥰
Hi George !! 😊
Love the shirts 🦩🌴🌞
Seeing that hat reminds me of the time in the mid sixties when I learned to make hats like that. My mom would pick out the shape and the decorations she wanted and I would make her a new hat for very little money. Great memories
Thanks for sharing George!
Thank you for watching!
“Well, you know the Dutch” 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
Wel, I do. I'm Dutch. 😄 Misty bought them. ❣️
I think hugging is wonderful, for Dutch or otherwise
@@TheAntiqueNomad ❣️
I know you wouldn’t know me, I was excited I got to see your booth and shop a moment! So many cool things!
Yay for the District of Columbia license plate! I was born there - at Walter Reed on Walter Reed's birthday. And it kind of sucks when people ask you what state you were born on and you say - none.
Ha! I never thought of that. Interesting! You can claim international status though
What a wonderful video George! You are so special to so many❤️ I’ve never met you in person, but I feel like I have. I think it’s because of your genuine kindness and caring nature. You are one of a kind. I hope I can meet you one day. Safe Travels. ❤️
I hope we do too, Diane!
Loved seeing all the tubers! LOL. Thanks for filming them all!
It was all I could do!
Also Folks watching this video you can buy George’s book about Treasure Craft. I was lucky to have him sign mine at the meet and greet with the Crazy Lamp Lady. A great book of knowledge.
Yes it was so fun meeting you there!
I learn so much from you, thank you!
This was a great trek through this show. Thanks!
I'm glad it was fun!
Wonderful show and how great to see everyone! Thank you for the tour George. Safe travels ❤
We still use the utensils for grating that are on the shelf in your room! 😊
Love these ladies 🦩🌴🌞
Amy, Yoso Boho is one of my favorites and so is Joclynn, The Crazy Lamp Lady. Every loves George, especially Donna with Restored Glory.
You are so gracious, George! Love your vids!❤❤❤
Fun video George! Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
Thanks for showing us so much fun stuff!
You are so welcome!
I would buy that owl lamp!!
Another fun video! You were ‘name dropping’ all over the place!
Kate is a hoot! So is Alex
😂
Yes it was so fun to finally meet them!
So glad to see all your other sellers. So much fun. Really enjoyed this video.
I have a few sets of Tellingen , can't seem to sell them, love them. Great video, ,leaned more info. THANKS. George! Wish I could get to one of the Extravaganza shows, would be broke the first day! I would also fill my booth! Coppertop was amazing.
I like the Van Telligen, Misty got a good price but they all were pristine too. Hope you get up with a truck someday ;) Copper Top was really cool. What a great weekend!
Hi George 🙋♀️ are you going to be in Mount Dora this November? I so enjoy all of the resellers and what fun it must be to catch up with friends. I love Misty from Thrifter Junker Vintage Hunter. 38:41
So fun.. gonna come to this event next spring hope to see you
I plan to be there!
Hi George
Hi What great fun ❤ Thanks for sharing 😊
How fun to see all the youtubers. 🙂
Sure was for me too!
I like the banks.
Me too!
Great prices for the Roman glass and the shabtis.
I agree! Good to see you. It's nice to find things that are more noteworthy than the usual
@@TheAntiqueNomad Of course antiquities can be a nightmare in regards to legality and authenticity. Especially in regard to shabtis, which have been reproduced since the early 20th century. Shabties had an interesting function in Egyptian funerary beliefs because they served as proxy servants for the deceased in the underworld. If I remember correctly, they were divided into groups with overseer shabties for each group of 10. Royal burials could possess several hundred which often varied in size and elaboratness. They were often inscribed with the name of the deceased and a prayer that would be invoked if Osiris, the Lord of the dead, required the dead person to toil in the grain fields of the underworld.
George, you are such an inspiration!! After viewing this video, I’m seriously considering selling at the extravaganza next September. And of course, I want to be next to you 😊
Please do! you are more than welcome
George, so tonight i was in two live youtube shows both well known, and both sets of hosts told me about this amazing video, and my guest appearance. Thank you sir, I really enjoyed talking with you, your knowledge and memory is just amazing. I hope to see you soon, hopefully in the May show. Hugs my friend.
So fun. Such great energy!!❤️💜🩷💙💛
I adore Parsley Pottery out of Cincinnati, Ohio!
I looked it up and I agree, it has some of the feel and glaze colors of 1930s Coors Rosebud ware but it's modern stoneware and seems of good quality
Thanks!
That is so kind of you! I really appreciate your support, I know you've been watching a long time and I'm glad I can keep it interesting for you!
Great video. Excellent content .
I grew up in this area and never traveled the 10 mi to the Springfield extravaganza. Fast forward and I've been selling vintage goods for 30 years. Thanks to your video, I'm going to visit the Springfield sale this year.
Your booth looks good !! As always !
Thank you!
Hello everyone 🤗
Good to see you again!
Oh man! I was there that day and I didn't know you were there!
Interesting video!
Good evening, George! I really liked that ribbon showcase. Well, there was a lot of the Green Drip there, but not a saucer in sight. I thought I'd never find those things. There were some crucifixes, on the table with the alligator item, that caught my eye. I have a tendency to really like those and have quite a collection of them. The solid white ironstone is the one that appeals to me most. I like the simplicity of it, and it is quite strong. Loved the shipwreck items! I would've gone absolutely bonkers over the Egyptian pieces! The travel shaving stand really interested me. I've not seen one of those before that one. Those Victorian candleholders were really nice. I used to have a 3-D Chesterfield Kings thermometer...sold it when I moved here. That clock shelf, in the air B&B, was definitely my taste. Liked that one a lot! Those small churns would be the perfect size I'd be interested in having. That looked to really be a fun show! Thanks for the tour!
Not one saucer! I was disappointed, but at least I saw your color. I do like crucifixes too, I had more collectors out west for them. The solid white ironstone is great when it has some design, it didn't necessarily need embellishment. The shipwreck finds were so neat to see! I think the travel stand might be from Europe, I've seen exactly two in the US (one at an estate we held and one in a shop). I could live with those candleholders, I thought they were noteworthy in design. It is such a great show, thanks for coming along!
It’s great seeing you, George, I am looking forward to seeing you at the west palm florida shows, you’re always full of so much information and I learned so much from you. We have great new Stuff coming to that show. Can’t wait to show you. And see what goodies you picked up. From ilana and Lenny Tagsalefun
I'm excited to see what you bring! I have a lot of shopping to do between now and West Palm
Hi George from Chris in Springfield Met Jocelyn, Dagney, & Kate but, regret I couldn't find your booth to see you again(we met 2022Sept Extrav). This vid was fun to see all that I missed - lots of walking trying to see everything! Lol. Definitely will try harder to find you nxt May. Until then, TFS your videos. 💙
I’m doing my first big indoor😊 show ever this weekend. Wish me luck 🌼😎
Good luck!! Please tell me about it and how it is, I recall you are in Europe so I am really curious to know what that is like
Just finishen settig up. looks great. I’ll take a video and try to mail it to you. 500 venders. That’s big on a Danish scale. My stall is small -2 tablets but I’m really good in cramming in a lot of stuff and make look pretty 😎
❤
Great video for all of us unable to go to the Extravaganza … I have the floor display ribbon cabinet … it was purchased in upstate NY in the late 1970’s by my father for his Pennsylvania antique shop as NFS … I’ve owned this spectacular piece for 5 years … I’ve never seen another floor model … thank you again for all your information and passion for vintage … great meeting you at Columbia ( actually 1 year ago today )
When I was living in North Carolina there is a large artist community. Pottery was very big there. Wish I bought more while I had the chance.
I keep hearing that about North Carolina, I guess the tradition goes way back
You are so knowledgeable!
You do a great job.😊
Thank you! 😊
We were coming to Springfield for the first time, but a family matter came up and we had to cancel. I hope to met you one day. I love the knowledge you share.
I sure hope you can come in the future!
Was that a Longaberger basket with figures on the lid in your booth? I have one, the Longaberger site was no help in dating it. Love all your videos, George. It's nice to see all the RUclips-ers, too.
No, my basket was earlier, made by a Louisville purse painter in the mid-1970s
@TheAntiqueNomad Thanks for letting me know, George. Much appreciated!
Dang
😊😊😊😊
Hey George! Enjoyed the video. Love Eicholt! She sold those on her What Not auction tonight for a nice price 🤗
