Big Antique & Vintage Finds at Remote Tiny Town Flea Market!
We're hunting for cool antiques and vintage to take with us as we head west for next weekend's @RoseCityVintageMarket show in Portland, Oregon! Not a lot is open on Sunday as we drive across the Great Plains, but a chance spot of a Craigslist ad takes us to a town way off the beaten path that's having a flea market! Will there be bargains worth buying to take to our Northwest collectors?
In the tiny old downtown of Lyons, Nebraska, we happen on a classic car show/bike show/tractor show, with a hardworking (and loud) band laboring before a smattering of people. After goofing on all the cool old cars (including a carbon copy of my dad's 1967 Ford truck), we stumble across a group of perhaps half-a-dozen flea market dealers...and a few really good vintage surprises! Advertising signs and displays, a mink muff, a cool bottle opener and some other fun pieces jump out at us, and we say yes before I can contemplate how I'm going to fit it in my already full van.
They refer us to the "other half" of the flea market, a group of about a dozen vendors (including a small auction) in and around an abandoned Phillips 66 station. They won't let the old 66 sign go, so will I find anything worth taking west? A nice offer from one of the sellers at the last minute provides me with something unexpected, something I might need with the change in the weather. Bundled back in the van, I get to reflect on another fun and fruitful stop in an obscure Nebraska town! Now it's on to Portland for my show...1700 miles to go...

Hi George+ Safe travels and good wishes.
Looks like fun!
Your parents used seatbelts? WOW! I remember getting stuck in a seatbelt in my dad’s ‘69 Buick and getting in trouble! He says I TOLD YOU NOT TO MESS AROUND AND PUT ON THE SEATBELT! We were truly free range kids! Lol!😅
Love, love love you!!!!!
I like the black Amethyst bowl and the hob knob bowl by Fenton. Great little side stop. Have a great day and safe travels
There's a place on the Oregon coast that makes those funny face mugs. They're pretty cool.
Have fun
I had to check a map because I couldn’t remember where Lyons is. 🤷♀️ I haven’t lived in the northeast part of Nebraska since the mid 70s. Looks like it was worth the stop!
Yesterday I saw someone driving the new Tesla Truck, it reminded me of the Delorean. :P
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi george

Welcome to Nebraska! It's a big state to drive through.

They all are out west!
Just curious, how many miles are on the clock? You drive such long distances. Driving 300 miles over here is a long way 😂 Take care darling, and love to you and Xeno. Charlotte xx 🇬🇧

So your vehicle is getting too full of stuff? Remember the movie line, “We’re gonna need a bigger boat.”? 😊 and ah yes, those metal dashboards in our family cars. Who thought that was a good idea? 😊

I’m afraid to get a bigger boat I’ll just buy more stuff. This is as much of boat as I can afford to fill. I had a Studebaker with a metal dash they padded just the top and it was great because you could use refrigerator magnets to leave yourself notes.
Hi electric poodle
I have a set of Siesta Ware glasses with the carrier listed on eBay. I think the shipping cost is scaring people away since it’s a heavy piece.
I live in Nebraska and I have found junk jaunt is sparse. You basically have to drive a while to find sales
Please watch for Hotchkiss staplers for me?
