  • 1820s ANTIQUE DESTINATION IN UTOPIA TOWN TOUR
    New Harmony, Indiana is more than just a perfect place for antique and vintage shopping and reselling! This town is one of few surviving frontier utopias, where social reformers and intellectuals gathered to test new ideas in how to grow the country in 1820s America.
    We take time to take in some of this handsome early village between our antique and yard sale shopping stops in this video! Beautiful homes, an opera house and the Italianate 19th century downtown contrast with simple log cabins and brick courtyards. Reformer Robert Owen’s radical ideas shaped this once important place, the first in the nation to have a free public library and education for both men and women. Lofty minded inhabitants included the founders of the Smithsonian Institute, Purdue University and the US Geologic Survey.
    Inside these venerable walls, a thriving antique and vintage community exists, and we explore and shop it well! We buy a lamp that would make Crazy Lamp Lady proud at a porch sale, venture into a vintage shop worthy of a hip urban center, and find a Victorian fire station filled with finds.
    TV lamps, Blendo glass, black panthers and tiki gods treat the eye in our first stop, whose proprietors also run a vintage vinyl store in the back with a scarce poster from the closing days of San Francisco’s venerated Fillmore Theater. We peruse Peter Max plates and Carlton Ware condiment sets, and find a great buy on pirate dishes from the old City of New Orleans railroad dining car.
    Firehouse Antiques wraps up our shopping, where a fun and ambitious couple have filled an amazing structure with farm fresh furniture and primitives (real old paint, no fakery here!), vintage toys and postcards, wall sized ad signs and medical charts, architectural and garden finds. I pick up items ranging from a lucite owl pin to a Red Goose Shoe bag at this fun emporium, where Spirographs and Victorian corbels live happily every after. It’s enough that I wish I’d rented one of the ubiquitous golf carts to get back to my van!
    Here are some of the other things we see on this tour:
    Fox print, Japanese woodblocks, Halloween noisemakers, Heisey art deco vase, Goofus rose glass, Ceramic Arts Studio lambs, boudoir lamp, wrestler tumblers, Harlequin creamer, Danish teak cart, Napco owl bank, Bristol vase, transportation tin, bakelite and copper jewelry, doll furniture, crocks and jugs, Shawnee corn, garden urns, orchard ladder, flower garden quilt, Burma Shave sign, club chair, Victorian music stand, yardsticks, cruise line menus, etc.

    I live close by and I've been go into to New Harmony my entire life. A best friend moved there and lived there for 15 years so I really got to know New Harmony. It's a fascinating place with a very eclectic mix of residents and part time residents from all walks of life. It's said that the "veil is thin" around New Harmony so there is this kind of supernatural vibe. Many haunted homes. The Roofless Church designed by world renowned architect Phillip Johnson is amazing, many unusual things to see and do, the labrinth walk, Carol's Garden is a beautiful place her mother (an Owen, I met her in the 80's) built in her daughter's memory. Anyone can rent a golf cart for the day. Thanks so much for showing everyone the great mystical town of New Harmony!
    Side Note - we were having a girls weekend at my friends house, I woke up around 3am to use the bathroom and I heard low murmuring, then singing, chanting. I listened through the open window for awhile the just went back to bed. The next morning my friend told us it was the witches doing their full moon rituals across the way. Gotta love New Harmony!

    Hello Professor /Uncle George! Just finished watching you over on Real Nifty Vintage, Misty and Crazy Lamp Lady vlogs - where you all recently met up for a few days ! Really fun!
    This vlog I viewed today - you did a really nice job introducing us to the quaint and historic town of New Harmony Indiana - and once the world rights itself and we can travel again - will gladly come to visit! The Kenner’s new Spirograph - brings memories for sure!
    Cheers!

    Love your videos and am learning so much! For me however, a huge part of why I venture out to the wild is to step back in time, so it matters to me how I feel while in each individual booth. Like on my channel, there’s this Victorian “bedroom” booth where I lose myself! I honestly wish they would turn down the overhead music and allow each booth creator to set up a small, quietly playing loop of music to really allow me to immerse myself in their tiny museum!!!

    • @TheAntiqueNomad

    I look at the antique and vintage fencing and would think, it’s so short what are they trying to keep in or out. At 5’8” as a female in the mid 70’s, I was considered tall, model height. And, then I remembered that average height for a female was 5’2”-5’3” at turn of the century. To someone 5’2” that fence was a perfect height and didn’t seem child height.

    George, I bought a new spirograph and it is hard! Also I wanted to ask you if you saw the maze made out of bushes in new Harmony. I think it is by a church. But it is really fun, it doesn’t go up real high So you can see all the way across if someone else is in it. It’s pretty big. I love Cindys store and the other one you went in is a lot of fun! Hoping to make it up there soon. I live in Evansville.

    I do enjoy your videos and have learned so much, at my age it is hard to remember all the important suggestions. Ah well, will just keep watching. Was special to watch the recent trip with the four or five others. In this particular video there was a slight wind blowing and your long side bangs were blowing straight up into the air. I mentioning this because I truly believe you might consider cutting those side bangs off because you have a nice shaped forehead/head. With the hair off your forehead you appear younger and more professional. I noticed also that in your introduction, smiles are interjected in odd places. Your eyes are always smiling when you speak so maybe you don't need to throw in those extra smiles,.almost like you are faking them. I have watched many of your videos and find that you are very knowledgeable, offer help to those looking at your exhibits and I want you to know I am not criticizing, only constructive suggestions to raise your intros above the norm. God Bless. Good hunting and good selling. Diana

      Welcome! Thank you for watching and please like, subscribe and tell your friends. Salt cellars seem to be more popular now than for awhile, I think because they're small and because people are using Himalayan and other specialty salts more. Tea strainers I suspect are not as popular now, at least based on teapots, which aren't collected like they used to be
