FINDING VINTAGE BACKROADS BARGAINS | STATEWIDE SALE WEEKEND!
Kentucky’s annual highway sales were all rescheduled for one huge October weekend! We hit as many yard sales, estate sales and community sales as we can in search of forgotten treasures and antique bargains in this video of the Hwy 68/80 400-Mile Yard Sale, which is the longest highway yard sale in the state.
Right from the start, vintage items at good values appear. A great pair of mid-century mod chrome stools goes into the car, along with tavern toppers and kitchen glass. Prices range from reasonable to ridiculously low, and we’re off to a good start!
The next stop is in Amish country, and the presence of horse drawn carriages among the cars in the lot tells us we’re in fertile picking ground. Horses and tigers seem to be our picking theme in this field, while a disturbing Star Trek collectible brings us back to the future.
Passing by Shaker villages and a strangely placed version of the Washington Monument, we pause at a flower market en route to an estate sale in a little town. Here we find the ultimate picker’s delight, an upstairs attic with piles of vintage collectibles that all the other shoppers seem to overlook! Everything from Venetian glass to genie bottles fills the box, along with some very interesting small items.
The last of our stops is on the adjacent Rollercoaster Highway sale, a new discovery to me which tantalizes with many more sales than I can possibly cram into a day’s drive. More to come next year at this annual event!
Here’s some more of what we see in this video:
German prisoner letter opener, musical decanter, chalk ware ballerinas, nodder felt tiger, Brush car planter, pocket knife, Murano console bowl, I Dream of Jeannie bottle, Florida shell lamp, farm plows, tractor manual, Viking glass, Jadeite charm cup, Quarterhorse trophies, tiger planter, Paden City bowl, carnival chalk ware horse, anvil, hanging scale, pitcher pump, potato seeder, horse collar, hardware store parts sorter, diamond point compote, Miller squirrels, Dugan dove dish, 1960s poodle figure, etc.
