Your cousin was so nicely generous! Nice to have family you can like. Love to see when you go back to that one that was closing! Thanks for the adventure!
He is a great guy and was really nice to let me get all that, I offered to share but I guess since I took him out and found him cheap solid wood shelving that he wanted to pay it back.
He sure did! You and another viewer recognized the signature right away, I'm farsighted and really couldn't read it on the spot (I need to bring my readers, hard to admit). Thank you for that!
Those penguins are cute. Glad you accomplished your mission successfully too. Thanks for letting me come along and see what is out there that is interesting too. Have a great day and stay warm.
George, between you and your cousin, you made out pretty well, especially after that last cart came out with Waterford, and German penguins. One never knows what you'll find!
I had to laugh...you reminded me of Jocelyn a little, when you guys found the good stuff. She gets all excited and overwhelmed. A very palpable moment for us all. I love how the community of resellers and viewers are so happy when one of us scores a great haul. I really enjoyed your time over on Danni's Monday live yesterday. Always interesting to hear the back story to ones journey. I use to go to garage sales with my mom as a child and I never realized how much I absorbed until a few years ago. Thanks so much for your willingness to share your time and knowledge with us George. It is such a pleasure.
Enjoyed watching you on this video. Value the educational moments. Introduced to you by Danni, the Niche Lady. Had to hop over to Subscribe and select the Notification Bell. Thanks for such a groovy channel.
This was a fun shopping trip! You saved me tons of money on travel when you said, “this is just what Bavaria looks like”. Saved me a trip. You crack me up!
You are a very interesting gentleman with a fantastic personality. That makes for a good match. I think you are so helpful to so many resellers. Enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing.
Love the door bell on your cousin's apartment, its just like my great aunt Marie had,and I'm sure that the six of us ringing it to announce ourselves was a true highlight of a visit from our family!😂😄🤣
Such an enjoyable video, George. Loved the trips through the different locations. And the banter with your cousin! Thank you for taking the time to film, edit and post this video!
This are the right places for hunters, and the prices are amazing cheap.If you hear on German fleamarkets the word :" Antique ,old or rare", the sellers want to weigh up their stuff in Gold.Greatings from your German fans 👍 🇺🇸 🇩🇪
What a fun trip! On top of the world was an interesting development. Loved the penguins! I always enjoy shopping vicariously through you. Thanks so much!
@@TheAntiqueNomad You know, I've driven by there thousands of times growing up in Clearwater, but I've never been inside the development. So that was a first!
Thanks for the variety, George. Nice to meet your cousin, too! The knowledge runs in the family, obviously. Those Bossen heads always bring back memories. My Air Force dad brought my mom back some from one of his TDY trips overseas in the 70s. That & the bull & matador from Spain.
Living in the UK I can confirm all our castles are pink lol 😆 brilliant video love the doorbell ringing, it's something I do when people have annoying doorbells
I hadn't comment in a long while because since I am always a short of money, I never buy anything and I thought that I better let other people the real customers comment, but, I have been with you since the beginning and I do watch you on RUclips all the time, feel a little bad not able to buy anything but one of this days I will, I promise anyway thanks for making me happy George the antique nomad, I love your videos!
Hi there! Please always feel that you can engage with me, I'm thrilled you've stuck with me! it's never been about making money to me, I just want to share the love of all this cool old stuff. A lot of people who are able to spend do, so that's been a nice side benefit, but your involvement and long-term support mean much more than cold cash. Thank you!
Oh George, your so honest to pay someone more than asking. I loved those coffee tables. I don’t feel they are out of style. I love The Salvation Army. I always find something and their prices are great.
I loved this one, George. Nice to meet your cousin and hear a bit about your family. My personal favorite things: Bosson heads (I had some that I got in England, and I made some reproductions). I love Franciscan Apple ( American made only), and Waterford anything - especially love the seashell. I’d be interested in perchasing that one if you kept it.💚💚💚
Thank you! I had a lot of fun showing it. I do like Bossons, and USA Franciscan Apple is one of my all-time favorite patterns. E-mail me about the Waterford shell
Good evening, George! Those model cars were nice. One of them looked like a Duesenberg. There was a Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote glass there. I would've had to have bought that one. I loved the Tudor-style secretary desk. The price was a bit on the steep side, but for someone that wanted a really nice one, it would be a good find. Those penguins were a great find. You were there at just the right time for those. That Waterford shell was a fantastic find! That was a really good thrift shopping venture! That doesn't happen often. Thanks for taking us along!!!
I do like Wile E. Coyote! The secretary was the nicest piece of furniture I found all day. I was certainly lucky to walk up on the fresh cart of stock right then! Have you ever seen the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg museum? Those cars are so phenomenal (and huge) in person
@@TheAntiqueNomad I've never seen the Auburn/Cord/ Duesenberg museum, but I have seen a Duesie, and they are massive! I saw a Duesie clocked one time. It was one of the ginormous ones...an SJ, (or something like that), dual cowl Phaeton, I think...and the radar clocked that thing at 133 MPH...on the old spoke wheels, no less! It had a V-12 in it. I'd love to have one of them, but I'd have to live in it😆 Wouldn't be able to afford anything else!
The large bronze disc is called a Death Penny and was given to the families of dead soldiers etc from World War One. I believe that they are always British military and should have the name of the dead combatant on it. I know that the one I own does as it is a family heirloom.
The 'Death Pennies' are a sad story, but very interesting! This particular round was about 10 years later however, in the US they issued variants as commemoratives of other events
That was fun! A different shopping experience with you! When I see a ‘collection’ donated to a thrift store, I feel sad because I think someone must have passed away and family didn’t want the collection.
I think it is one of the reasons that some of us resell. It is our way of honoring the person who took the time to collect and now we can send items on their way to a good home, to someone else that will cherish them just as much as the last person.
My mom had a large collection of Bosson's that she bought when we lived in Germany. Unfortunately a 30' wall of water washed them out of her house during Katrina. They were still in the boxes so we figure either they are deep in the swamp or out in the ocean somewhere.
@@TheAntiqueNomad Yes, they rebuilt. They had built this house in Bay St. Louis MS as their retirement home and had only been in it for a month before Katrina hit. They lived in a 18' RV for over a year while trying to rebuild. It was a nightmare. Things can be replaced, the worst part was the loss of all the family photos. Their house was 19' off the ground, so no one thought a 30' wall of water would ever hit that location!
Very nice find with all those penguins! Also a side note, I had the little dog figurine that was in the cart. Mine had a foil sticker that said the maker was Peacock and made in Japan. It was neat to see it in your video!
Wow, you are a veritable wealth of knowledge! I have the angel sconce that lies on the table to the left of the "Zsa Zsa Gabor" lamp I picked up at a barn sale for $4. I am into Victorian, but the lamp was a bit ostentatious and prices were very high.
Next time if you have no cart , maybe gently empty one of the bigger bowls and place your items in it and then go get your cart. You can put bowl back in art or on shelf later! I was getting nervous that you could drop or damage while trying to hold all of them!!
That Waterford was a great find! It was good that you noticed the shark boo boo before buying it. Unfortunately I have made this mistake too many times! Hoping I can get rid of some of them at the Lawrenceburg show.
Thank you for taking us with you today! 😊
George you are a real ethical man. Just one example is paying the woman a fair price for the par table !
George has the best sense of humor.
Let's thank George by emailing his video to a friend or 2. He is almost to 60 K
Your cousin was so nicely generous! Nice to have family you can like.
Love to see when you go back to that one that was closing!
Thanks for the adventure!
He is a great guy and was really nice to let me get all that, I offered to share but I guess since I took him out and found him cheap solid wood shelving that he wanted to pay it back.
learned a lot from you Bud, Thank you for the fun videos
Glad you like them!
The penguin is Murano, signed Licio Zanetti. Your cousin did you a very good turn there!
He sure did! You and another viewer recognized the signature right away, I'm farsighted and really couldn't read it on the spot (I need to bring my readers, hard to admit). Thank you for that!
Love your finds! You have such a beautiful voice. You should have a tv or radio show about your wealth of knowledge!!! 🙋♀️❤️🙋♀️
My favorite part was you doing your best to annoy your cousin! And of course listening to all of your tips!
I'm like the irritating little bother...uh, brother he never had
Even better watching second time around George! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! I liked this one, it was a fun day
Those penguins are cute. Glad you accomplished your mission successfully too. Thanks for letting me come along and see what is out there that is interesting too. Have a great day and stay warm.
I’m so glad you got to come along!
I love when you describe history of jewelry. Very interesting!
I like costume jewelry and there's a lot to know!
Love the doorbell and knocker!
George, between you and your cousin, you made out pretty well, especially after that last cart came out with Waterford, and German penguins. One never knows what you'll find!
Turns out the glass penguins were a Murano signature! I have farsightedness and couldn't read it
I had to laugh...you reminded me of Jocelyn a little, when you guys found the good stuff. She gets all excited and overwhelmed. A very palpable moment for us all. I love how the community of resellers and viewers are so happy when one of us scores a great haul.

Thank you! I sure enjoy it and am glad I can show the enthusiasm. My mom took me to garage sales as a kid and it stuck with me too
Loved this video of you shopping with Carl.You scored some great treasures !!🦩🌴🌞
Yes I did really luck out!
You are so full of knowledge. Love to watch you!
Thank you so much 😊
Love your pleasant demeanor and helpful information.
Thank you kindly!
Love all the little shops you find, George. God Bless.
Thanks 👍
That was fun!
Salvation Army worked out great for you George!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You got some great items!
Good fortune
Great score!
I was happy!
Awesome treasures. GREAT VIDEO AND GREAT CONTENT. THUMBS-UP ALWAYS!!!!!!!
Thank you 🤗
😊😊😊😊😊
New subscriber. Thks to Danni and CLL and Yvon. Loved this video. Glad you found some great treasures.
I thank them, and you as well! Welcome to the channel, I hope you'll continue to watch and have fun with me
Look marvelous George
Enjoyed watching you on this video. Value the educational moments. Introduced to you by Danni, the Niche Lady. Had to hop over to Subscribe and select the Notification Bell. Thanks for such a groovy channel.
Awesome! Thank you! Please keep commenting and tell your friends
Boca has great second- hand finds...esp. with furniture. Some sittings even have carpets custom- made to match.
I bet! The Palm Beaches are all good for thrifting
This was a fun shopping trip! You saved me tons of money on travel when you said, “this is just what Bavaria looks like”. Saved me a trip. You crack me up!
Lol why see Europe when you can see it all at home?
Good morning from NE Michigan, I love your channel! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! Xoxo Lori K 👌 😃 😊 😀 😄 😁 😆 😃
You're most welcome! Thanks for coming along!
I love when you have guest stars :)
So do I! I'm glad to know that
I’ve seen the Insect Surfers live back in the early 80s! Never would have thought of them again. Thanks for the time warp.
You bet! I like taking people back in time
You are a very interesting gentleman with a fantastic personality. That makes for a good match. I think you are so helpful to so many resellers. Enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, thank you!
Love that huge cherub lamp! Georgie, who would have made that huge lamp, and is it from the 70’s or what decade?
1970s or late 60s, American made but there were so many lamp makers doing them I can't tell you who did that one
What exciting thrifting finds! Wow!
I don't usually score at thrifts like that! It was exciting
OMgosh!!! that was def a rare Thrift Store event
Finally! I watch you do it all the time. Turns out the glass ones are murano
Love the door bell on your cousin's apartment, its just like my great aunt Marie had,and I'm sure that the six of us ringing it to announce ourselves was a true highlight of a visit from our family!😂😄🤣
I love it!
That last cart was nuts!
Lucky timing!
That was a very fun adventure. Love the penguins.
Thanks! Me too
Nice finds
I was pleased!
What an incredible outing!! Lots of new places that aren’t that far away from where I live!! YIPPEE!!
Oh good! They deserve patronage, they all had things worth seeing
Wow, talk about being at the right place at the right time !
Yes!
My favourite was the glass 80’s coffee table ✅
If those cabinets hadn't filled the van, I'd have gotten it
I like the around the world tour. It would be fun if the inside were designed like the outside
I think it should be required!
Such an enjoyable video, George. Loved the trips through the different locations. And the banter with your cousin! Thank you for taking the time to film, edit and post this video!
Thank you so much! I enjoyed this one a lot
What a fun adventure!! Thanks for taking us along!!
Our pleasure!
Those condominiums cracked me up!😂😂
I know, right?
💖 Insect surfers yeah!
I have a feeling I'd like them, I'm into music that a lot of people don't like
Very interesting about leaving objects outside or burying them to achieve the orange 'rust' look - good tip!!
Glad it was helpful!
Love all the goodies you find!!
Thanks! me too
That was fun! We could feel the thrifting bug hit ya!
It doesn't happen often, it was nice to hit a good vein!
This are the right places for hunters, and the prices are amazing cheap.If you hear on German fleamarkets the word :" Antique ,old or rare", the sellers want to weigh up their stuff in Gold.Greatings from your German fans 👍 🇺🇸 🇩🇪
We sure are fortunate to have such excess!
Oh my goodness! That purple shoe seat! 😀😀
Loved the day trip and the world tour. Smiled through the whole thing. Thank you George!
Me too! I'm glad you had fun with it too
Great shops. Furniture choices awesome.
Yes I Like showing people good old furniture so they realize they can get quality cheaply
I am new to your videos. Love how you teach as you shop! I will be back to learn more! Thank you!
Thank you Jeanne! I'm glad you found me, please tell your friends and keep on commenting
You got a bunch of nice stuff. What a great haul.
Good fortune for certain
Heard about you from Danni and checked you out subscribed🥰
So glad! Have fun catching up and please continue to like and comment
I certainly will🥰
What a fun trip! On top of the world was an interesting development. Loved the penguins! I always enjoy shopping vicariously through you. Thanks so much!
Thank you! I had to show On Top of The World, there's not much like it that I've seen
@@TheAntiqueNomad You know, I've driven by there thousands of times growing up in Clearwater, but I've never been inside the development. So that was a first!
It was fun love the penguins
I love to decorate with penguins in winter.
I like them in lieu of traditional Christmas decor
Love your blog.. always learn new things
..that was such a great haul of penguins!!!!
Thank you! It was sure fun to find them
OMG that was fun!!!
Thanks it was for me too!
Great, now everyone will be twisting that door ringer!
Ha Ha I hope so :)

Lol I appreciate your sense of humor!
There’s a interesting channel called Crick Diggers Inc. These guys dig old bottles and more. I thought your cousin would enjoy checking it out.
Cool! I'll let him know, he loves that stuff
I hadn't comment in a long while because since I am always a short of money, I never buy anything and I thought that I better let other people the real customers comment, but, I have been with you since the beginning and I do watch you on RUclips all the time, feel a little bad not able to buy anything but one of this days I will, I promise anyway thanks for making me happy George the antique nomad, I love your videos!

Absolutely just fell in love with this man!
He's available lol
I like watching your videos and I am learning a lot from you, you had a really good day.
Thank you, I felt fortunate!
Oh George, your so honest to pay someone more than asking.
I loved those coffee tables. I don’t feel they are out of style.
I love The Salvation Army. I always find something and their prices are great.
I wanted to do right by someone who gave me a nice tip and helped me! I like those tables as well.
Enjoyed the shopping video.
Thank you 😊
Wow! Once again I’ve learned so much from you. Could the UTC label on the penguin be Otagiri? Your cousin was a great wing man!
He sure is! I think UTICO was a separate firm from Otagiri from what I can tell. I'm so glad to help where I can
Omg, I live in Clearwater and found new locations to shop.
Good! They sometimes have stuff and one of them was new to me even though it'd been there for years

licio zanetti are your penguins, I recognized the signature I think from you showing it for a second.
Thank you so much! I was having trouble reading it without my jewelers loupe, I've become farsighted in the past few years
@@TheAntiqueNomad If you like you can email me a pic and I can for sure confirm, but pretty sure thats what the glimpse I saw was....
Loved the trip lots of fun
Thanks for coming with us!
wow!! great haul
Thanks for watching!
Thanks!
Thank you so much, Jan! That was really nice of you

Thanks I like shaking it up a bit

That was fun! A different shopping experience with you! When I see a ‘collection’ donated to a thrift store, I feel sad because I think someone must have passed away and family didn’t want the collection.
Well, sometimes it's downsizing too
I think it is one of the reasons that some of us resell. It is our way of honoring the person who took the time to collect and now we can send items on their way to a good home, to someone else that will cherish them just as much as the last person.
love your videos--I live in Florida and cannot wait to see one of your flea market stands.
November Mt. Dora is next, weekend before Thanksgiving! I'm traveling elsewhere for shows between now and then
Great video.
Thank you!
Thanks George
Thank you!
U r so smart.love the way u describe things.those penquins were so cute.thanks for the trip, it was so much fun
My mom had a large collection of Bosson's that she bought when we lived in Germany. Unfortunately a 30' wall of water washed them out of her house during Katrina. They were still in the boxes so we figure either they are deep in the swamp or out in the ocean somewhere.
Oh no! That's terrible, I didn't realize she went thorugh all that. I hope she was able to rebuild
@@TheAntiqueNomad Yes, they rebuilt. They had built this house in Bay St. Louis MS as their retirement home and had only been in it for a month before Katrina hit. They lived in a 18' RV for over a year while trying to rebuild. It was a nightmare. Things can be replaced, the worst part was the loss of all the family photos. Their house was 19' off the ground, so no one thought a 30' wall of water would ever hit that location!
3:56 WOW I ALSO HAVE A LONGABERGER BASKET
Very nice find with all those penguins! Also a side note, I had the little dog figurine that was in the cart. Mine had a foil sticker that said the maker was Peacock and made in Japan. It was neat to see it in your video!
Oh wow! It's nice to know who made it. I thought it was cute and knew it was 1950s Japan but I'd never seen a tag on one
Great video. Wish you were my cousin. 😄
Wow, you are a veritable wealth of knowledge! I have the angel sconce that lies on the table to the left of the "Zsa Zsa Gabor" lamp I picked up at a barn sale for $4. I am into Victorian, but the lamp was a bit ostentatious and prices were very high.
That's so kind! Yes about the sconce for $4, and yes, as much as I liked it, the lamp was too much
Next time if you have no cart , maybe gently empty one of the bigger bowls and place your items in it and then go get your cart. You can put bowl back in art or on shelf later! I was getting nervous that you could drop or damage while trying to hold all of them!!
nothing like a FRESH CART of the good stuff ! My GW store restocks at like 4pm im always there lurking..all the antique dealers come at opening
That's smart! I didn't realize some stores restock at the end of the day
Only at 4pm??
The Goodwills I go to are always stocking every hour or two
Interesting topic! Looking forward to watching.
Thank you! It was true in this case
I'm n Florida too!
Heard about from The Niche Lady! But, I had already watched some of your videos in the past.
I'm so glad you came back to look again! Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in comments and chat again
Very nice. Good score on the Waterford George.
I felt fortunate!
That Waterford was a great find! It was good that you noticed the shark boo boo before buying it. Unfortunately I have made this mistake too many times! Hoping I can get rid of some of them at the Lawrenceburg show.
Me too I have a lot of slightly imperfect stuff to dump somewhere. I wish I could do the first Lawrenceburg but I'll get there eventually this season!
@@TheAntiqueNomad Bummer! I am planning to be one and done. First show only. If I don't sell at this show I am going to dump it all off somewhere. lol
