Yes, that's the golden grasshopper of Sir Thomas Gresham who's business evolved into Martins Bank that was eventually bought by Barclays. These signs were very common in the City, C Hoare & Co still trades and uses the golden bottle as their sign.
The guy that was selling the giant grasshopper had no idea of its worth, while Drew knew exactly what he could get for it, that is why Drew's eyes lit up when the guy plucked a ludicriously low price out pf the air.
i still don't get it..unless they edit a ton out..driving and all that time for 2 items for 500 profit ? that place was loaded...and all he came away with is that ??? can't be...
They make their money from their RUclips channel. There are youtube channels in the US where people mow people’s overgrown lawns for free, but they make their money from their channel.
We never see behind scenes like cammera people and stagers they edit very well. No bathroom or food breaks. It takes a lot of time to set up and take down production
they probably edit out alot, they show three places per episode usually and they probably just pick out the most interesting/unique/expensive etc. items from each place and not every single thing they buy as it wouldn't be time for it an probably loads of repeats etc. things he always buys etc.
From the US, THANK YOU Drew your show is appreciated.
New episode for me and really enjoyed their humor. Yay🎉
The UK used to be First Class, now it's certainly now Third Class !
Loved this. Thank you 😊

Spot on! Absolutely right…there is (or was) one in the City - think King William St
That locust makes 3 things to haunt my dreams from this show, an apothecary cabinet, bumpy textured propellar brass lamps and locust.

Martins banks in London used to have these grass hoppers hanging out side the front door , worth at least a grand
Loads of stock, good prices, wouldn`t mind visiting them myself.
Unfassbar Schön, der vergoldete Grashüpfer ein Absulter Eyecacher. Ein Wahnsinniger Schöner Fund♥️
Thanks
When I saw the locust the first thing I thought was is that a prop from the film 'Quatermass and the Pit'.
How lucky I am~
