[@blakeb4583]

These should be in a museum, not a pawn shop.

[@monarchist1838]

well, the script says otherwise

[@specialagentorange4329]

So do you!

[@JPLooney]

Which is the conclusion they came too..

[@travisfields157]

*Insert Indiana Jones here*

[@yogirlcheeks7074]

Blake B some people are just stupid even if it’s stage they shouldn’t be messing with it 🤦‍♂️

[@fjccommish]

Rick: "The plans are no longer secret, and they're based on dated equipment and tactics. The best I can do is..."

[@mrbump28]

Commander in Chief: "We need 160,000 men for operation overlord" Rick: "best I can do is 500 and a few dogs and I'm taking a big risk here"

[@randyenfinger4441]

🤣🤣

[@haleybaca5260]

dont worry i got a guy he will be down to tell me what we got here

[@cp-wl6cz]

With all that... I need a frame for all of that

[@cth38881]

My papa was the artist who drew this map Calvin Hall. He was also a paratrooper in the 82nd and jumped behind enemy lines on D-day. I wish I could get this from this man or at least talk to him. Pretty awesome to see this!

[@MMA_BEASTHUB]

He was a gr8 guy

[@theovas4600]

Λολ

[@ulyssesjuerez7228]

GO TO VEGAS AND TALK TO RICK SO YOU CAN GET THAT GUYS PHONENUMBER

[@gmeyer_7]

Cap

[@zokipng]

@@gmeyer_7 bro he not capping I looked it up

[@rosiefausto3764]

I hate when people sell the stuff their grandparents left them

[@moments5932]

Rosie Fausto but.. most of time that’s WHY grandparents leave things to their grandkids, so they can have something worth some money in the future.

[@kimchi8022]

It’s just material stuff.

[@TONWEIGH]

Same I wouldn’t part with something that would disappoint my grand parent

[@debbiemarquis3231]

@Smarter Than You 😅😂😅

[@debbiemarquis3231]

@Zokersghost 😅😂😂😂

[@dbodooley]

This show is so cool. Who cares if it’s staged. What show isn’t!? You learn things about history on this show that are important to know. I love it.

[@Mr20Gogo]

I have the pre reports of Mr. Brown planning to get along famously.

[@is300bmigs8]

Hahahaha

[@benaskukenys3173]

I caught them all myself

[@bakaneko9741]

The beard of knowledge NEEDS his own show!

[@JasonGroom]

Go to his museum, he literally just hangs around there and is an amazing guy to just stand and talk to. Can honestly say I have very rarely met a nicer person.

[@bakaneko9741]

The 3D Printing Corner I would if I lived there, who knows, maybe I will take a trip :)

[@anobesewalnut8yearsago994]

Who’s that

[@STOIKMAN69]

He wouldn’t know how much to ask to get paid

[@CaliPaliGuy]

No he doesnt

[@thecarpetheros5990]

My grandpa died that day while carrying a fellow soldier to safety.

[@ohheip3309]

The Carpet Heros :)

[@jusedits8307]

The Carpet Heros your grandpa carried my grandpa to safety...

[@ahmedp800]

Was it Mr.Brown famously sounds so fun?

[@davidvaldez9670]

My Grandpa was the one who shot your Grandpa Carpet. Sorry dude, it was a accident. He was not a very good shot.

[@Dylan_Hart]

The Carpet Heros My grandpa worked at KFC

[@ChuckKeough]

Seems like they should wear gloves to keep dirt and oil off those documents.

[@jba9964]

nah they don't own them, don't care

[@r0bw00d]

Gloves do more damage.

[@r0bw00d]

Gengar: We're not talking about people, you idiot.

[@r0bw00d]

No.

[@SupermanJunkieModz]

r0bw00d simple wash ur hands

[@maxlu9373]

I would’ve sold it to the WWII museum in New Orleans. They would’ve paid top dollar for that

[@F5_cena]

Lifetime entrance for free maybe!

[@thelastjohnwayne]

They are priceless and should be in a museum

[@unclesmallz9689]

My girlfriend's grandfather was driving the very first tank to make the beach on D-Day and the man LIVED, how you going to be the 1st tank and not be taken out! It blew my mind when I heard the story. He is still alive at the age of 93

[@eljefe114]

Literally one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen

[@jennamcbean8113]

It really made me upset that such an important piece of history was gifted to the seller by his grandpa and he chose to sell it.... just hearing the story made me think that these papers and plans were quite important to his grandpa and he wanted him to keep it to educate others

[@billysmith4183]

it belongs in a museum

[@Locutus]

If you watched the video properly, it would say that...

[@MisterSwagify]

@@Locutus Yeah, but it actually doesn't belong in a museum. Museums display items. Those battle plans cannot be displayed in any capacity, because they degrade extremely quickly when exposed to light.

[@Locutus]

@@MisterSwagify The thing is that you can have special UV resistant glass, and you can keep them in a special environment to preserve them longer.

[@Seattle206723]

He said they belong in a museum, because it would be taken care of so they don't fade. ie They would treat it regularly with a chemical, and in the correct lighting environment.

[@stupidsmart-phone6911]

They wouldn't display the original documents, they'd have to photograph or scan them for reproduction, enlarging them to be viewable. Presidential or University libraries are the best places for these outside of the National Archives or Smithsonian. These pre D-Day plans should go to the Eisenhower Library in Abilene, KS.

[@davemarnell8871]

No price? Waste of time. Someone would buy that for at least $50k. A CEO keep it in his drawer. Pull it out and read it when he needs to ponder a big move.

[@cdg03]

dave marnell lol, no.

[@ChillMrShade]

Nobody is buying this crap

[@easytherepilgrim2339]

Sad that such an idiotic comment gets so many 'likes'.

[@davemarnell8871]

It's sad that you are emotionally invested in likes.

[@easytherepilgrim2339]

+dave marnell You should contact the show and buy this item for $40K. And then sell if for over $50K and make a nice profit.

[@delduvall]

This show is just one big history lesson, history everybody knows too

[@ThatEvilGod]

ozzfreak05 Fuck off?

[@JustAGuyProduction]

I call it a book. Rebecca should have been called in.

[@ZakkandtheJ]

Mark may not be eye candy but he's cool and respectful

[@KnobleSloth]

This dudes grandpa just rolled over in his grave

[@clovisdacruz6078]

No his grandpa is decomposed.

[@JAF2991]

"These are important and rare historical documents that is of real value to us as Americans, let me give you $20 for it cuz you know I gotta frame it"

[@corvus_paradox_]

4:14 looks like he's gonna cry

[@utuber2940]

call rebecca please..............

[@pistolpete6796]

Gengar Phantom just stop

[@ChillMrShade]

Mit Romney's daughter

[@nath-wp7xp]

Who's rebecca?

[@ChillMrShade]

Your mom

[@Jsmith12292]

You just wanna see dat booty. 😄

[@ryangleason9199]

Their faces when the guy said they’re from before the battle

[@zediahtimmons9704]

I love how a majority of these are handed down from family

[@nbhaley]

I feel like every time they call that guy, he says, “unfortunately...”

[@moneybagmax2613]

Mr. Brown threw the ball at my face, and then we got along famously!

[@jackfrost9354]

I miss the old man....rip🙏

[@rockydennis4497]

God bless the men that fought and died on D-day on May 28th!!!Heaven held a special place for you heroes!!!

[@shane2044]

I'm pretty sure d day was June 6th

[@tyedyejedi]

I wonder if Chum did a tide pod challenge

[@eljefe114]

tyedyejedi def

[@llSPTNYU]

tyedyejedi lowks

[@austinsims3741]

Lmao

[@cracklasco]

Probabaly. then Ross stopped him.

[@phatmobile7801]

he did it like 20 times

[@e.alexander1869]

So unless he had it in some special box somewhere for 80 years with no exposure, how does the ink look so good?

[@McShaggswell]

It was in a folder. An opaque folder. One that doesn't let light in.

[@austinpressley23]

at 2:00 it looks like uncle si from duck dynasty is in the background haha

[@Andrew-ub4qz]

Mr Brown fought for the Germans

[@nickstevens8596]

No, Mr. Braun fought for the Germans.

[@bryanmartinez6600]

Nick Stevens no... KAISER BRAÜNKLEUNFKUGANFEIG!!!

[@matnelen4235]

Luckily archival glass has been around for decades to counter this.

[@terminallumbago6465]

Mat Nelen Exactly. I've been to the National Archives and the documents are in good condition for their age

[@jarrod2292]

Me: can I get change for a dollar? Rick: let me call a buddy of mine.

[@phillimbacher2223]

03:13 9th infantry division My dad was a surgeon in this division. He commanded a medical company that landed some days after the initial landing.

[@gabe3561]

Phil Limbacher That sounds like a whole story that could be told

[@phillimbacher2223]

Yes, my dad did write his war memoir. A family treasure. He was in the invasion landings of North Africa, Sicily, Normandy, and the initial crossing of the Rhine on the Remagen bridge, and one of the first 4 US Army doctors into the concentration camp at Nordhausen, where he went thru piles of bodies w a stethoscope to find the still living.

[@MissMilly321]

lol that is so much bullshit and you know it yourself.

[@vegitosama8721]

My great grandfather stormed the beaches of Normandy and was also a PoW during WWII. He died years ago, but that's just life. Pretty sad, but he left a legacy.

[@mart9468]

Rick seems to be dealing with a cold in this video

[@markviz7842]

My great grandfather was in the 82nd and dropped on D day

[@jakcarn4184]

those battle plan documents need to be placed safely and displayed in a history musuem. The Normandy invasion was a massive turning point during WW2

[@Subar_Sama]

*Laughs in Operation Bagration*

[@xpr3ss.755]

Yeah no. Allied invasion of france only shortened Germany's inevitable downfall

[@mikephillips8538]

It's really amazing what comes through those doors.

[@republikadugave420]

Mold is getting along famously with these documents...

[@Masa-bd6lu]

it belongs in a museum!

[@Locutus]

Yes, if you had bothered to watch the video, that is what was said...

[@zackcreator14]

lol the quaker oats guy has come back 2:10

[@chriscm1524]

The old man is such a mood😂😂

[@internetvide0]

I called the shop Rick wasn't there I am tring to sell some real chinease stars will be in vegas when I turn 21.

[@accidentalmusic2749]

Tony Roberts they have web sight photograph them.

[@Dennnis10B]

This short piece was awsome...Thank You Pawn Stares and KZbin..

[@fannin8583]

75 years....wow

[@Hoopspur]

Mr Brown was on the beaches of Normandy , that's why he's called Mr Brown.

[@bippityboppityboo552]

Mr. Brown® grew up "famously" in northern South Dakota where he worked as a terrible smelling potato farmer. Then he found his big break when he got a gig working for chubby pawn broker dad doing his youtube vocal add-ins.

[@gedb]

After 80 years : guy has dank memes from WWIII

[@TheFrogInYourClosetWatchingYou]

The only reason he didn't make an offer is because he couldn't lowball him for "framing fees"

[@tsurek]

Rick's face 0:05 is the appropriate reaction...

[@TheMicWillExperiment]

Mr Brown was famously a general at Normandy

[@limecat1986]

Mr Braun and Eva got along famously.

[@jjpopnfresh6822]

Pretty cool seeing map overlays for the invasion.

[@zenbmonk1016]

I have my grandfather's piccolo my sister brought me from my grandparents old home in California. I will never sell that, or even consider bringing it into a pawn shop regardless of it's worth.

[@devinterry8373]

R.I.P old man

[@coltonnelson2494]

Mr. Brown and his grandfather got along famously..

[@Salesman]

Geez, you can tell @4:13 the seller was holding in tears because he knew he wasn't going to be able to sell.

[@godofwar0678]

We landed in Normandy because we were fighting for Mr. Brown being so famous

[@Rj-yr1br]

Rest in peace old man........😔

[@SuperBustyEva]

Those are extremely important papers in our nations history.

[@kurtzcol]

should have called rebecca in

[@chriscripplercruz1833]

Who's else comes back to this video to see the Old Man again and his OG attitude

[@alertecobra27]

Huge respect to the American army ! From France

[@chloewilliams8405]

First time I’ve seen the big guy with the glasses without his red shirt on

[@kelvinhau7320]

Rick with the ROLEX MILGAUS🔥🔥

[@lensofeli1762]

i truly hope there never comes a time when i’ve seen all the pawn stars videos 😔😔

[@jamieyang7589]

*Airbornes during Normandy invasion* :ALRIGHT BOYS!!! WHERE ARE WE LANDING?!?!?”

[@ismailkoya66]

I love this expert.

[@SF_Curious]

The historian county director guy comes to the pawn shop ten times a day!

[@bradchristopher4293]

Mr Brown and I didnt get along famously in Normandy

[@794edgar]

Mark really got along historically with mr.brown famously

[@michaeld451]

D Day sounds so fun

[@Locutus]

Haters, listen to RIck, he says is a *BUSINESS* not a museum. Do not expect him to pay anything near retail when purchasing items.

[@yamamoto909tvvideosandgame3]

03:09 in the background of his head ''Money money money''

[@vivi-ru8uk]

rick: I'm a business here not a museum guy: OK!

[@RC-nj1by]

"what's your concerns about........." waaaait for it.....waaait for it.....2:14 THERE IT IS!

[@ReMeDy_TV]

"What are your concerns about..." Rick: "What do you think!? Tell me the moneyz!"

[@joemcgowan6304]

Mr. Brown and D-Day got along famously.

[@boneyomama]

RIP OLD MAN

[@Station7Jason]

In all fairness rick was right in not buying them, i have pre-battle plans for operation market garden (grandpa was an intel officer in the 101st) and they do NOT last if displayed, thankfully i took them down from my walls just in time.

[@Anonymouseduck]

Bet these guys have killer parties with all the buddies he has.

[@themadh8r539]

Mr brown famously thinks that guy should donate those to a museum

[@gumpthompson5139]

Don’t even have gloves on 🧤

[@drmikey1108]

Man rick must of been to so many schools to meet all of his BUDDYS

[@dupetones306]

I hope everyone realizes this show is scripted and more than half the items are actually privately owned and are not actually getting pawned.

[@ahmedp800]

Sounds so fun actually

[@bobbub6012]

Dupe Tones still fun to watch

[@dupetones306]

warrior112100 because i said more than half, not ALL. Reading a hard subject for you???

[@evanplatt1325]

For a guy who says "I need to get it framed" - certainly there are frames with special glass that can be used, am I right?

[@alexkg1]

Everyone talks about how they low ball people. But let's face it, most of this stuff may never sell. I wouldn't doubt if they sit on most of their antiquity inventory for YEARS before any of it sells.

[@siddjoshi2053]

2:23.. _"you can't tell the end date of the battle before the end of the battle"_ are you listening US President(s)

[@LiamNally96]

Guy looks like Ned Luke ( Michael De Santa )

[@jeffcrisafulli2258]

Thats pretty rare stuff one of a kind it looks.

[@boethius9173]

I'm watching this on May 28th (2020). The date on the maps.

[@BsUJeTs]

I was fortunate enough, by the grace of God, to visit Normandy. Normandy is a beautiful historic place where I believe that every Citizen of the United States should visit ( if they have the opportunity of course ). When you go there and see what these young men were able to accomplish with the obstacles they had, you will be amazed and humbled to the core. God bless them and their families for their sacrifices.

[@trippy115]

The map's got a name engraved on it

[@samuelornelas9125]

The seller looks so scared!😂😐

[@johnjenks7812]

Samuel Ornelas probably stole them hahaha

[@nicholasdavies6264]

Nice Rolex Milgauss Rick !

[@ms.felonystrutter2472]

I am sure someone would be glad to buy them and keep them from display, the guy should not give up and he should get top dollar for them

[@toyman9642]

Canadian troops were there. Proud to be a Canadian.

[@hellopeople7950]

My great grandpa was in Normandy

[@visatotase9454]

The old man was my favourite
