FIRST ANTIQUE SHOW IN MONTHS! | SHOP WITH ME IN PETOSKEY, MICHIGAN

ANTIQUE SHOW, AT LAST! | SHOP & SCOUT PETOSKEY VINTAGE
It’s been a long dry spell, but antique shows with good safety protocols are being allowed in some more rural parts of the country! Petoskey, Michigan is a vacation paradise whose bi-annual show is a welcome sight for resellers and collectors whose options to enjoy the wonderful in-person experience of the vintage world have been limited.
This show is new to me, and I explore the barns and indoor venues very thoroughly in this episode! Dealers who’ve been idled since March bring a bevy of new finds…modernist chrome lamps and skyline paintings to 1920s Uncle Sam outfits and outboard boat motors.
The diversity and quality of this show really impress me as I take it in for the first time. Huge displays of Victorian Vaseline (uranium glass), mint-in-box Buddy L trucks from the 1960s, California Plein Air art and a stack of electric advertising clocks are on display. Print dealers offering pro-and-anti war posters, early botanicals and Native American depictions offer great variety. From robot fish to giant spectacles, this show has things I’ve never seen anywhere else!
My pass through takes me through a gallery of the last two centuries of human development and production…whether wicker furniture or Danish modern are your gig, you’ll likely find something to enjoy in this montage of valuable vintage and amazing antiques. We’ll look for names, styles and yes, prices that educate me about some new old things, and hopefully teach and tantalize you as well.
Here are some more of the items we see along the way in this tour:
Political memorabilia, movie posters, street signs, foundry molds, oak pew, original paintings, Judaica wall cloth, advertising signs, canes, African chairs, dovetailed crates, Donald Duck, indian baskets, spongeware, Buick uniform, fur coat, psychedelic bikini, Nylint, Studebaker Lark, Seeburg jukebox, Danish modern chairs, quilts, creels, Wavecrest/Nakara/Kelva, overshot glass, Fenton cranberry, scenic lamp, corn casserole, Hitchcock furniture, primitive and folk furniture, fish decoys, Manhattan glass, wicker furniture, Hudson’s Bay blankets, Whiting and Davis purses, etc.

Hi George I always postpone watching your videos until I have quiet time to savor all the visuals and information. Your narrative style and personal notes give your presentations depth and value. Keep going. ❤️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Wow, thank you! I appreciate your kind words and expect to keep doing this awhile. I'm glad there's value to my viewers, I really want to entertain and educate

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi, folks! Glad to share another antiquing adventure with you all. So glad there's some antique shows happening again!

[@Paulalamphere]

Glad you are busy with shows again.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you, it's a real relief to get to have the chance again

[@disneyfairy]

@@TheAntiqueNomad Is there somewhere we can see your schedule?

[@thatsabadname6242]

Hold up wait I love antiques I live and die for them you said something about Seattle and I'm in Washington if you have a little shop there id love to visit or an online shop 😁

[@judygillespie3242]

Thanks George. I loved the dogwood quilt and the beaded bags. Enjoy Monday nights due to you.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks, I'm so glad to make the least favorite night of the week a little better! I really liked those items a lot myself

[@kcreations922]

Thanks for the awesome tour. Some of these pieces belong in a museum.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You bet, there were a few really unusual items there!

[@CiaofCleburne]

Am currently binge-watching all of your videos. I feel like I’m becoming more educated with each one I sit through. Thank you so very much for taking the time to bring me along on these wonderful tours of shops!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I'm so pleased to have you come along with me

[@sandyhough3901]

Thank you for another fun and informative video. It's so interesting to see what items are available, or more common, in the various regions of your travels.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I agree! Part of the reason I'm "The Antique Nomad" is that different things are available and different things sell better or worse in different areas

[@aseretstudio1724]

Finally had the time to sit and watch this, George. Once again, you pick interesting pieces to share with us. I hope you enjoyed Michigan. We love the Glen Arbor area and Traverse City.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I did! I want to go explore that area a lot more

[@myheart2914]

George, Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I so enjoy your content!!!😊

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I appreciate that! I'm really enjoying helping everyone appreciate these wonderful things.

[@claudiapastor]

Fabulous show. Some incredible pieces... amazing how many antique dealers there are in the USA. Best wishes.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

We used to have so many more, the Baby Boomers are retiring and so not as many as once there was but still lots to see at shows.

[@claudiapastor]

Let’s hope this new generation of “resellers” coming out on KZbin will assume this position as the new antique dealers of tomorrow... I call myself vintage and antique (glass and ceramic) dealer. I’m very niche. But I will make an exception to some textiles, tapestry and MCM lights... it is a pleasure to watch you George.

[@mignon4474]

Thank you for another trip down memory lane. It's always fun.

So nice of you to say! I really enjoy bringing it to my viewers and am glad you're part of it

[@RnR-Rebel]

Hiya George, thank you for the tour, so many beautiful things! It’s hard dating wicker due to its 70s revival, those were stunning pieces! I’ve got a few, one I got at a “junk” shop I really think is Victorian but was updated in the 70s, afraid to try & restore- otoh want it out, no room anymore! Loved the arts & crafts lamp so pretty, as was too much to mention! I hope we see your booth in the next video! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks! I agree about wicker, it can be hard to date but the pieces in this video were more substantial than newer ones I've seen. I did show my booth in the "part II" video tonight, hope you enjoy it!

[@twiztedfairy2007]

Glad you enjoyed it! I was impressed at the size of this show as well.

[@misslannie73]

George, I throughly enjoyed this week’s video. It’s fascinating to see the array of things that are on show. As a Brit, the Labour poster reminded me of things my grandparents kept. Have a fabulous week xx

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Many thanks! I'm glad you recognized the English poster, I think it dated to 1940 if my research was right. There was a big change in attitudes about social assistance there after the Depression.

[@susanbarnettkiengsir]

Wow! You are so full of knowledge on so many different things! I'd love to follow you around at one of these shows in person. Thanks for bringing us along.

love this show, amazing booths, thank you for the tour!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it

[@twistoffate4791]

Funny, I always thought something printed on a poster that was 57/317, meant the 57th print out of a total of 317 printed, so, for example, if you purchased the very first one, the 1/317, you had the most valuable one.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That's true on limited edition prints, but on movie posters it means the original release was 1957

[@askmamalouise7605]

Thanks for being you and doing this...I just know I am going to find the huge grandma scarf I want sometime..stuff like that.. Loved the Donald duck..my dad and his only sibling had old cartoons that I think were slides mostly that you moved fast but the machine got hot quick they laughed until they cried as adults when we were junior high and grade school looking at them..Donald Duck was a main one. Dad is 87 ans Uncle is 77. I love Mesh too.

Great antique show! There were several items there that caught my interest. Behind the large glasses, there was a couple of chairs - a rocker and stationary chair - I really liked what I saw of those. I've always liked Buddy L, and those were some super-nice ones. Really liked the Studebaker promo car. Love the peach-blow! Mt. Washington made some really gorgeous pieces, and they can be quite expensive. That vaseline epergne, canoe and Arts and Crafts lamp were fantastic! Really enjoyed this tour! Thanks!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I especially like Mt. Washington and Victorian vaseline. The canoe was really cool as well! In fact, I agree with all your choices (especially the Studebaker for sentimental reasons)

I'm going to mention the sale to her and tell her if she goes to look for you! Enjoyed the video!!

Love phrase," Have never witnessed in person."'

[@debbieshulman5610]

I believe the "wall hanging" you pointed out at 36:19 is a "parochet," the curtain that covers the Aron Kodesh (Torah Ark) which contains Torah scrolls in a synagogue. The parochet symbolizes the curtain that covered the Ark of the Covenant. Although this example is decorative, (as most are) it had a definite ceremonial, religious purpose. I am unsure whether I would use it as wall art. I really find your videos informative and fun to watch, as I, myself, am not attending any shows at this time.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you so much for your explanation! My dear friend who was practicing Judaism died and I don't have the background to speak intelligently about it. That makes great sense and I'm not sure using it as it was shown is appropriate from your definition. I really love sharing information and learning, I appreciate your input very much

[@susan-thegracefullilymarke622]

Oh, I’m dying to go to an antique show! Thanks for showing yours! If you hear of any in Florida let us know! I’m in the SWFL location and so far haven’t heard of any. In September there is suppose to be an outdoor one in Arcadia, FL! Hope they don’t reschedule it again. They usually have it every 3rd or 4th Saturday of every month but since March it’s been postponed till September.

[@rickeydonald4756]

I got burned early on, hastily buying (not inspecting) a huge political button collection at auction. It was a valuable lesson. I got an entire reproduction lot. The earlier buttons should have had markings maybe indicating a specific novelty manufacturer on them. Later ones, I discovered, usually had a microscopic mark on the edge indicating a union made stamp. I also didn’t pay attention to many items that should have had copyright dates, registry marks, numbering, etc. There are some great reproductions out there, missing those tiny marks that authenticate that they are the “real” deal. Live and learn!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes, there were a bunch made that have the date of original issue on the rims, which are all reproductions! I was fortunate to be clued in to that early in my career so avoided them

I bought a hand-carved African (?) chair at the thrift shop. I never knew it was a chair. I bought it for the carvings on it and thought it was a shelf. It's been put aside as we were trying to figure out how it attached to the wall (head slap!) Now I need to fall down the rabbit hole of these type of chairs. I think mine would be made for a child. Any other info or keywords you can provide me would be greatly appreciated.

I think maybe a Google image search would get you in the right direction. I don't know for certain, but the other pieces I've seen were from what is now the Congo. They may be from Yoruba culture but I'm not definite on that.

I meant bedford

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Is it? The most recent info I saw said most of the groups most recently were in the Indianapolis area. People are often surprised where the KKK had influence in the past, the town in Kentucky where I am bought a piece of land and tried to form an encampment few miles outside about a decade ago--but the local people hated it and were able to find enough legal reasons to force it out.

I lived in Bloomington ind, until I got out I know for a fact most of that area is KKK, and really a horrible experience for so many,,,Bedford is a scary place
