Vintage Shop With Me! | Antique Show Shopping & Selling

Antique shows are happening again in airy rural places! The Petoskey, Michigan Fairgrounds fills twice a year with antiques under huge tents, and we explore my reselling booth and the rest of the outdoor show in this fun video.
I bring fresh stock to every show…my first chance to set up a show booth since March provides shoppers and viewers a chance to see my finds during the lockdown! My eye is as eclectic as my videos, so antique Satsuma vases and a Japanese ikebana bronze vase share space with Skookum dolls, race car memorabilia and the Royal Carriage from Queen Elizabeth’s 1953 Coronation.
After buying and showing off an Erphila dresser doll, I take us on a tour of the rest of this fascinating outdoor selling venue. So many vintage delights! Victorian cast iron garden ware and one-of-a-kind hand hewn primitive furniture attract one sort of collector, while kitschy 1970s lamps and a 4’ beer bottle entice a different crowd.
Among the finds are fun facts and important things for resellers and collectors to know. How do you tell a new burl table from vintage? What is a “Kentiki” tumbler? What popular reselling reality show overly inflates its values? We tell all as we show real examples to help interpret the past-and help you avoid mistakes in the present.
Here are some more of the items we see along the way in this tour:
Fox print, Peter Marsh lamp, Fenton lamp, Bill Elliott signature, Native American beadwork, school map, pre-Columbian jaguar effigy vessel, Wash-ette, Tom’s store jar, Starburst candlesticks, Wedgwood tea set, Lenox princesses, Vernon Kilns, corbels, lawn jockeys, computing scale, nurse sign, felt pennant, stamp set, portrait chair, Hudson’s Bay robes, Squash Blossom jewelry, turquoise and sterling concho belts, onion bin, forestry sign, taxidermy, antlers, Paul Marshall mirror, folk art, crocks, truck scale, carnival glass swung vases, glass birds, 1970s furnishings, reflector road sign, lunchboxes, childrens enamel top tables, shaving stand, modernist sculpture, alarm clocks, Chicken sign, antique advertising, barrister’s bookcase, anthurium canisters, crucifix, slag glass window, breweriana, etc.

I love tagging along with you when you treasure hunt.

[@askmamalouise7605]

I'm so hooked on your videos. I watch them daily! Thanks a million!

[@Rose39M]

Thank you again George! Always love watching your videos, I do learn so much from you!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you Rosemary, I'm always glad to see your comments and know you had fun

[@pipersmith1531]

Lots of wonderful things to see! I was very impressed with those coats recycled from blankets, just beautiful, what an ingenious idea.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

They are! I like that she's using blankets with bad edges and holes that would be otherwise destroyed.

[@judithjones4041]

You rock!! Eclectic doesn’t come close to describing your wares

[@dorothyrobdau6942]

Thank you for showing us well as much as you can. 😸

Thank you! I appreciate you watching.

[@RadRelics]

Can't wait brother!

George I’m so thrilled you are on KZbin, makes me very happy 😊

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! It makes me happy too, you and your Periscope channel were the thing that introduced me to the concept and I can't thank you enough

[@cecoya]

Love the Carnival glass swung vases those were nice. Thanks for sharing and you have a wonderful day

[@mignon4474]

Nice job 👍🏼 George! Thank you.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! Glad to see you in the chat again

[@Deborah4Antiques]

I've never seen the "Washette" before! The "Stimpson" scale was a wonderful colour.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I like that color too

[@lauragoodman3378]

I love the information and all the different items you show us. Thank you

You are so welcome! I'm glad you had fun with it. I sure did, and I look forward to showing you more

WOW I would have loved to have been there. Thanks

I’m glad I can take you there through video at least!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Wow, thanks! I'm really enjoying getting to share all this fun stuff with everyone

[@barbguerbe9936]

So many things there I have never seen. Thanks so much!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Wow, thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying my work like I am.

[@loistallent2340]

That was amazing Gorge I saw a lot of items I’ve never seen before. Very informative and great job explaining everything

[@Havaseet2]

I used to do the markets in Florida up until 2003. The mid 1990s were the best time to do them in my opinion. I did Renniger's Extravaganza and monthly fairs. The Winter show at the Convention Center in Miami Beach when Lou Baron ran it. Webster's, Wagon Wheel, the Drive in Market in Pinellas County, Don Scotts and Lakewood in Atlanta. Piccadilly in West Palm Beach. They were a lot of fun and I really miss doing them. I can't get over how much the crowds and the prices have dropped off though.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

It's true, a lot of those are gone now (including Wagon Wheel, it closed due to covid and announced it will not reopen). The Baby Boomers and their parents were so much of the dealer base, my generation (49 million) is so small compared to those 100 million people that it's going to take awhile to regenerate

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! Thanks again! ❤

[@sharonhester9781]

Really enjoyed the garden items! I grew up here in horse country around some very fabulous horse farms and saw a lot of that growing up! Absolutely beautiful! Summer in Kentucky!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes I really appreciate Kentucky's biodiversity, having pine trees and cactus in the same yard makes me happy

[@cajuncottagefarm2253]

I think the dresser doll would make a good denture holder

[@rosamerla1534]

You show so many things that I won’t see ever, I feel like I’m in a museum when I watch you

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm glad I can give you a chance to see them! I love the shows because they're like a museum, except you can see it up close and in person (and even touch them)

[@disneyfairy]

Does it mean I'm old when my children's lunch boxes are at the antique mall? :P Great show, I just love your sense of humor! Thank you so much.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! I think it means we're vintage, not old...after all, you have to be 100 to be antique :)

[@juleslorraine9885]

[@lynnedelacy2841]

Those Gingham plates would have hit my basket ! Thanks for another interesting video My parents couldn’t stand Rowan and Martins Laugh - in , particularly the giggling Goldie Hawn I was only about 9yrs when it started, I could recognise it was a new direction, but it was Monty Pythons that I really liked

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I really like Vernon Kilns too! My folks also disliked Laugh-In, I admit I was a Monty Python fan at a young age when they weren't around to disapprove

[@kansaikennels]

thank you...now I look forward to Wednesdays!...you are 100% right! lots of interesting items and one of a kinds at your show

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yay! Thank you! This was a good show, I'm hopeful to find more to show soon

I collect Vernon Ware. Yellow and Brown.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Love their shapes!

[@tigermoon44]

The old Pawn conchos were gorgeous. I'm from the SW. I had Rhode-island reds when I was in my 20's and they were the best layers. Just remember to put chicken wire underneath if you have a chicken coup so nothing can dig underneath and get your hens. I had mine for around 10 years. I had a variety, exotic, little banty hens, it was great!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I love the Old Pawn! Thanks for the chicken tip, I heard things will get at them from all directions if you aren't careful

[@triplesmercantile1009]

Enjoyed the video.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Glad to hear it! I look forward to bringing you more fun antiquing and collecting adventures

[@feenixreyesing4432]

OMG!! I was just researching chickens!!! They are such fun! Summer Rayne, the plant guru, had a pet chicken that roosted on her bedroom door every night!! She dearly loved that bird. Then Cam of Dixie Cryptid was talking about all of his chickens--so they definitely become pets. I was shocked in learning about their personalities and some are sooo pretty. I was quite taken with them!! So definitely get some!!! You’ll have fun chasing them around! When you get them, you will have to make a video!! How fun!!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes, I'm interested in egg layers and I hear they're very much filled with personality (and hopefully eggs!).

[@feenixreyesing4432]

I thought having chickens would be fun but I think I need a more rural locale! I’ve known several people who have had chickens and they loved them! And they always had plenty of eggs to give to their friends! There’s such a difference in fresh eggs!! Deviled eggs are one of my fave foods! One evening I was watching Cam talking about his chickens and he was raving about his rooster. He said how protective he was over the chickens. He said one day a hawk was circling and it tried grabbing a chicken when the rooster went nuts on the hawk! And the hawk flew away!! The rooster saved the day!! How interesting!! You’ll have to do a video on chicken raising with your coop and chickens!! That’ll be fun and different!

At 18:33, the coat made from the Hudson Bay blanket by Pam Bauer is fantastic. I am writing her name down.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes it really was!

[@truepatroit8512]

Hiya George, your booth is lovely, one that would’ve pulled me in for sure! At 28:36 that Art Deco lamp was a steal, gimme😆! So many treasures, wish they’d open back up here in NY (possibly upstate is open, I’m too close to city limits) we always had fun flea mkts, antique shows in summer🙁. I’ve had that Laugh-In bin since about ‘80, got for a quarter at a church sale & yep I’m old enough to recall watching it 1st time around, so silly but fun! Thanks for showing us your lovely booth, all the other goodies... need a road trip but not happy about our stupid governor setting up checkpoints to get back in state😡. Have a lovely week & I hope you did well at the show! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️PS every time I hear “Vintage & Vinyl” I think of my 1st B&M shop in Greenwich Village which was called that!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I can't believe there's checkpoints, it seems really extreme. I did have a very good show and I wish I'd bought that deco lamp too!

[@RnR-Rebel]

The Antique Nomad - That’s our sleazy Governor for you. His wife misappropriating state funds, him hoarding about 3K ventilators at the height of the pandemic. The control has to STOP! Yes, you should’ve gotten that lamp, bet you’d get a much higher price which would still be worth it! J. XXX 😘🧡😻😻

I never have seen a Peter Marsh lamp before. It was the chunky glass that threw me. I would have searched every Arts & Crafts lighting manufacturer for this one. To find out this is MCM is unique. I never have seen anyone trying to reinterpret the Arts & Crafts movement.

🦋 I bought a Lenox snow queen, mail order way back when, and it was NOT the one you showed. Can’t remember how much I paid but I know it was expensive for the 1980’s. When it arrived, right way, I saw the underglaze was painted very sloppily. Fortunately I was able to return it for full refund. ✌🏽

Yes, Lenox found (as did a lot of American firms) that it's hard to control quality when you produce offshore

[@FatBirdFinds]

Great video George! Guess what, we got our first Treasure Craft this last week. We got the barrel pattern pitchers. 😆

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks! That's fun, the Barrel Line was what grew them from making cute figures to being a large ceramics powerhouse...the cookie jar was featured on the Dick Van Dyke show and that alone helped sell 50000 units! The brown rubbed glaze didn't give it the strength of an enamel glaze, so it tended to wear and chip, that's why they're not so common in good shape now

I’m going to spend the next week listing my butt off!!!! Probably about 7 months ago I started watching Jocelyn and I was fine til she came up with a Fenton small vase.

The Antique Nomad - Probably depends on how crowded Custer’s gets. The Farm Chicks show is typically packed, with a long line to get in, and curated vendors are packed shoulder to shoulder in all the bays, so it’s just not an option.

You had an interesting natural rattan basket with blue and red beads in it, can you tell me anything about it? Just came across one the other day...

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hmm, I'd have to see it to be sure I'm telling you right. You can send a pic via email to [e-mail]

Overdue for another one!

For anyone who is interested, there is a documentary on KZbin about the terrible fate of the women who painted the glow in the dark numbers on the faces of the Westclox dials shown @ 38:58. It's called "Radium City". Also made into a movie called "Radium Girls".

Yes it's a terrible story but very interesting

Hi George, what are the purple cream & sugar bowls at the 7:03 mark near the prince & princesses? My mother has a set of those in a cobalt blue with the same silver overlay in her China cabinet. Thank you.

Those are Cambridge glass in Krome-Kraft metal by Farber Brothers, very popular in the 1930s

Oh, thank you! I will tell my mother. I believe they belonged to her mother or grandmother, but she doesn't know very much about them. Now at least we can put a name and a maker to them. Several years ago my parents tried to identify all of their "treasures" for the benefit of me and my brother (since they're in their 70s now), but it's amazing how many things we have that we love and yet we may know very little about--especially since my mother lost her mother fairly young. All that familial knowledge gets lost as well.

GEORGE, you mentioned an antique show in Central Washington State? I moved here at the end of last year, so I did not know about that. Where do they hold that?

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

There may still be the antique show in Tri-Cities in March. Other than that, there's a bunch of flea markets and swap meets with a fair antique representation in Tri-Cities. Yakima doesn't have a show anymore.

The Antique Nomad thank you!
