Love the marbles! Looked like a great time ❤

[@sarahdee11]

You find such great things! I really love the heliotrope bottle...so cool! Thanks for taking us along! 😊

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Sarah, I love that $5 heliotrope bottle too! And I have several other Lazell perfume bottles to go with it. 😁💖

[@sarahdee11]

@massriverpickers Very cool! Your Midnight in Paris collection was so fun to see, also 💓 Just beautiful!

[@Creekseekingadventures]

Wow how fun. I wish we had flea markets like that here in Texas. Prices were wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

[@massriverpickers]

Yeah, we needed more stuff! 😬 Too much fun though! 😁😎👍💖

[@anthonymessina2834]

Wow!!! Okay!! You guys scored some great pieces!!! From the marbles, to the bottles, to the jugs, to the Cracker Jack's prizes!!!! Some really great finds there!!!! Looks like it's finally starting to warm up in Mass., huh?!!!

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Anthony! Yes, we did well at the flea! Of course we'd rather be in the river.. We are STILL waiting for inland river levels to go down (record high rainfall last year!) But when the river is high, we still have the beach, or the flea market, or metal detecting (which I have been quite busy with lately). Sorry so late replying.. it's been a busy weekend! Glad you enjoyed the video! -Cathy (& Drew) 👋😃😴

[@nolasdollsandaquatics9386]

Nice finds 👌 Marbles Yayy!!! 🎉

[@robertgardner3408]

Was Drew ready to go home after the marbles😂🤣😂✌️👍

[@massriverpickers]

😂 Drew wasn't right with me when I "found" the marbles... Lol . He doesn't have the patience for my looking at every little thing. He probably did one lap around the place while I was deciding. (🤔 Hmm, I guess he WAS ready to go home by then). -Cathy 😄

[@kristinhaislett9365]

Loved it! Thanks for sharing!

[@susancousins8766]

Beauty bottles, marbles, the perfect bottle is gorgeous with the turtle holder. Great stuff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

[@massriverpickers]

Thanks! We needed more stuff 🙄. Lol

[@larrymiller672]

Thanks again for another cool video.Loads of eye candy for everybody.So much stuff on the market and so little space left to display.Some marbles at a dollar each would twist my arm also.Great to see you and Drew out again having fun and enjoying yourselves.Thanks for sharing.🌅🌞😎🏖️🏝️🙏🗽🇺🇲🌷🌹🪻🌲🪺

Hi Larry! 👋😃😎 You're very welcome! Thank YOU, always, for watching and commenting! We will have more opportunities to go out and have fun, now that Drew is officially retired, as of today!! New adventures await! Best to you... Stay cool! Lol Cathy & Drew 😁😎👍🚣🏖️🏞️🐦🐿️🦃🦌🙏🇺🇲

[@cricket6410]

Cathy and Drew- thanks for getting back to me . Would appreciate info on beaches in the Gloucester/rockport area… thanks so much.

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Eileen! Thanks for commenting again. Anyway, a great little beach in Gloucester for beach glass, pottery, beads, buttons, and occasional pipe stems, doll parts, is Pavilion Beach. Go when the tide is still going out, so you can grab newly exposed finds . Lots of stuff along the hotel stretch there. We have a couple of beachcombing videos from there (in our beachcombing play list). Don't bother with Good Harbor beach, or Wingaersheek... There's not much there, and it costs 💲💲 to go there. (Pavilion is free, if you can find parking close by). Niles beach is excellent, but parking is for residents only.. you will get an expensive ticket! 😬. Check out channel @SeashoreMudlark . She hunts Gloucester beaches pretty much daily, and shows her finds. We have collaborated a couple of times. I haven't been to Rockport in ages, but I am reading (internet) that Front Beach is good for finds. It takes patience and good eyes, but stuff is out there... Especially after storms. Oh, and later in the year (summer) an ice cream truck stops at the end of Pavilion Beach (Gloucester) in the afternoon! 😋 But do check out our beachcombing Gloucester vids, and also Seashore Mudlark. I will look for the links to our vids for you. Hope this helps! -Cathy 😁💖 PS. Not all our beachcombing vids are from Gloucester (unnamed beaches are other locations along the North Shore).

[@momtrips6783]

Just discovered your videos and am a new subscriber. My aunt had an antique shop in Mass. years ago and she and I used to go pickin together when I was in town. I still like a good pickin adventure and go to the fleas, mudlarking, estate sales, you name it.

[@massriverpickers]

Hi There, and welcome to our channel! 👋😃😎👍 Sounds like we have some interests in common! Are you still in Mass? Thanks for watching and commenting! -Cathy 😁

[@momtrips6783]

@@massriverpickers I'm in the midwest and don't get to the Mass. area anymore since my aunt passed away. This is estate sale and rummage sale season in my neck of the woods, so I'm "hunting" those when I can.

[@Luciddreamer007]

💥 Great video Cathy !!! I love all the eye candy 🍭 that flea markets provide…. I’ll watch this one a couple times … Go Bruins !!! Hey Drew, I once had Bobby Orr’s autograph when I was in sixth grade and someone stole it out of my lunchbox !!

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Christopher! Glad you enjoyed the flea market. We will be trying a different one soon (near the one that closed). And next weekend we have a bottle show/swap meet (weather permitting). We are taking a break this week, (from video editing) as we are celebrating two things: my B-day, and Drew's official, FULL retirement!! 🥳😎👍 BTW, Drew is from NY, so he is a Yankees fan! (Not a good thing here in Boston Lol). He is not into hockey. But I was a big B's fan in the 1980s - early 90s. After that, all my fav players were gone (retired). Sorry to hear about your Bobby Orr autograph 😞. I have an autographed photo of Andy Moog, but that's not quite the same. -Cathy

[@Luciddreamer007]

@@massriverpickers Well Congratulations to Drew !! That’s huge !!! And a happy birthday 🎈to you !!! ( mine was April 26 …… )

[@massriverpickers]

Wow! Happy belated birthday to you!!! 🎂🥳😃🎈

[@amandabell8827]

Hi Cathy and Drew, great video! I like the flea market films 😁I love the story of the bottle seller in NY getting busted for selling old meds lol. Helene got a bargain with the Scottish jug, just $5! Of course the marbles are always a favourite and the cards you bought are so lovely. You got some wonderful things, thanks so much for taking us along. Hope all is well with you both 😀💖x

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Amanda,, All is well here... And Drew is now officially retired, as of yesterday ! 😃😎👍 I couldn't believe Helene getting that Scottish jug for $5 (where were we, that we didn't see it?🤔) Anyway, it was a fun day!! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁💖🐦🐿️🦃🦌Hope all is well with you also! -Cathy💖

[@amandabell8827]

@@massriverpickers Congratulation Drew! Now you can both spend even more time hunting out treasures 😀I saw a KZbin video yesterday filmed in Boston Mass, it was an ex cop talking about his life there. Boston looks lovely, is it near you? The video was by That Chapter if you want to watch, it was really interesting. 😀💖x

[@massriverpickers]

Drew says "Thanks Amanda! "😎👍 We are about an hour away from Boston. It does have some good dining ( North End Italian restaurants and bakeries), and historical sites and museums. (It is not ALL lovely though Lol. ) As a rule, we are not city people, but we have gone to Boston on occasion. Drew designed some things (engineering) at Logan Airport years ago too! YES! Retirement!!! It hasn't quite sunk in yet. But we will be celebrating this coming week: Drew's retirement and my B-day! (So there may not be a video next week... Not sure yet). 😁💖

[@amandabell8827]

@@massriverpickers Much celebrating to be done! Happy birthday and happy retirement! Have a wonderful time 😃🍾🥂🥳💖 x

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Awesome porchases, Cathy. I love your Evening in Paria collection, and the heliotrope bottle. I can't think of anything prettier than a whittled bottle in a windowsill! Beautiful jugs!❤

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Cynthia, Those Evening in Paris Bakelite bottle holders come in other shapes too, including a shoe, a grandfather clock, and a clam/scallop. They occasionally show up on eBay. But the owl and turtle are my favorites! The jugs were not cheap, but were scarcer, local ones that Drew didn't already have. Love how our front window is looking now, with some springtime sun behind the bottles.. just had to share that view! Thanks Cynthia! 👋😃😎👍💖

[@twindiggersminnesotapamandpat]

Cathy and Drew, interesting there was a Duluth MN bottle, and the Christmas coke from EauClaire WI. Both about 3 hours from us. Beautiful marbles and bottles you purchased. Love your flea market videos. Beautiful collection of bottles you have. 👍👏

[@massriverpickers]

Yes, that was unusual (mid-west sodas). You never know at a flea market! Well, I just uploaded a new bottle show vid. It's a looong one! Some really great bottles in this one... Don't miss it, but watch at your leasure. Lol 😄 (it's almost an hour long).

[@seashoremudlark3916]

Hey, great finds. I luv the selenium pink gloucester milk bottle. I was there 8am last sun...wish I has seen ya... that table with the plastic trays of marbles is a favorite spot for me. Always look forward to seeing what's new.

[@massriverpickers]

Hey Melissa! 👋😃 Sorry we missed you at the flea. We also arrived at 8am. I probably could have found more marbles in those plastic bins, had I taken more time to look at them all.. but I'm happy with the ones I got. So "selenium pink" is what you call that peachy color? (milk bottle). It is not a color we see often. It is definitely not amethyst! I have a machine- made inkwell that color too. Hope to see you at the flea, or the beaches soon! We'll be in touch! -Cathy (& Drew) 😁😎👍

[@diggingtreasure1]

Nice bottles, trade cards and marbles. I have a SO Richardson's South Reading Mass Bitters. With the longer neck, extremely whittled and large rough open pontil. I dug it in Maine when I was 10 years old.

[@massriverpickers]

Hi There! Thanks for commenting! Those open pontil SO Richardson's are nice bottles! Yes, Drew found one in our local river some years back. Nice that you still have the one you dug when you were ten! Quite a find, for a ten year old!! I still have some of the bottles I dug when I was 15. (Those are not pontiled though Lol). Drew started bottle digging when he was ten, where he grew up, on Staten Island. Drew now collects mostly Boston bottles and stoneware. My collection is more general. Thanks again for watching and commenting! -Cathy (& Drew) 👋😃😎👍🚣

[@JEFFREYHULLJr.-ps8nr]

Hello Cathy and Drew. This is a awesome video and you had found some nice stuff to buy at the Todd farm flea market. Lew and I like the marbles Cathy chose. Awesome Swan milk bottle from Everett Mass! 🙂those are rare and we have never seen one before. We collect milk bottles and have some with cows or farm houses and barns on them. (Farm & Dairy scenes basically) Nice clay jugs you bought there! 🙂What a nice and rare Clinton Mass jug! 🙂 We hope you guys can dig again soon and Lew and I hope to dig soon also. We wish good health and luck to you guys. Take care and happy hunting to the both of you. ----Jeffrey Hull Jr. (Jeff & son Lew )

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Jeff & Lew, We did ok at Todd Farm... The swan milk bottle and the jugs were from Salt Marsh Antiques (also in Rowley). Drew keeps saying "We don't collect milk bottles" but we keep bringing them home!🤔 I like the old 1901 patent milk, with the etched B on it! Must be scarce because the rubbing (of the embossing) is not in Dave Graci's book. We will do one, to send to him, as we have been doing for years. Hope you got my late reply to your comment from last weekend... It was a busy week here! Thanks for watching and commenting! Hope you guys get out some too! -Cathy 🙂😴

[@JEFFREYHULLJr.-ps8nr]

@@massriverpickers Oh yes, you did go to the Salt marsh Antique shop. Lew and i have been there many times. Nice finds there just like at the flea market as well. Yes I agree with you on how rare that milk bottle is. There a milk bottles that are so old that we have the same issue with not finding the rubbing of the embossing on them. (Before 1906 We guess? ) We have etching on milk bottles like the one you bought at the shop that we found digging.. We will check out the other comments you wrote to us and thank you for writing back to us. --Jeff & Lew 🙂

[@RIBottleguy]

Nice picks! I've never seen a Whiting milk in that style, must be one of the oldest ones they made!

[@massriverpickers]

That Whiting milk is really cool, with the hand-etched "B" on the front, and AUG 13, 01 patent on the base! It is not in Dave Graci's book (Eastern Mass milk bottles) so we did a rubbing of the embossing to send to him, (as we always do, for future updates). C&D 👋😃😎👍

[@karynbrown7519]

How much for the marbles?

[@massriverpickers]

I paid $1 each for the six marbles. Did you mean you were interested in them? (Two of them are going into my collection... The others were just too good to pass up!) -Cathy 😁💖
