Last-Minute Bargain Shopping @ Fabulous Antique Vintage Show
It's already Sunday of our antique show in the tremendous old Utopian town of New Harmony, Indiana! We've been so busy doing appraisals that we only now are getting free to shop. Will there still be bargain finds our collectors prize after a busy day at this great vintage and antique show?
The answer is a resounding yes! The friendly dealers at this show have plenty of great stuff, and we find deals on everything from costume jewelry and Boho hooked rugs to Fenton uranium fairy lamps and a pretty cool Jarts alternative that mom (and the Childhood Safety Council) would approve. A muscular Hungarian pottery bull, Evening in Paris powder and a pick that might have been used in someone's old Parisian pompadour are a fun things our summer show visitors will really love!
Between appraisals, I get around to shop a bunch of true antiques and primitives as well. A collection of 1840s-1860s Staffordshire figures and serving pieces tell us much about early Victorian tastes and trends, while great rusty metal objects range from sit-in metal washtubs to a Coca-Cola sponsored delivery scooter! Most surprising is a coverlet that could be at home in an MCM op-art display just as easily as an 1850s cottage. Even a very elderly flyswatter speaks to the ingenuity of people who just made due with what they had in early America.
We talk to a dealer about why he's returning to sell here in the real world, and the pros-and-cons versus his online selling platforms, giving insight to why different items sell for different prices in different places. Then it's time to pack and go home...and we didn't even get to shop all the outside dealers! We're looking forward to remedying that at this year's show, the weekend of June 8-9, 2024.

Hey George and Vanna, the ring toss from 1920 and the farm still intact and in great condition, just shocking! 😊
Great video George! Thanks for sharing!
My breath caught when you cut to the beau-ti-ful black transferware platter! The fun lawn game with the vibrant colors was a find too. Vanna was charming as always :)
My favorite is the Rams Head Ring Toss Game! Shout out to the lovely Vanna ✌️&❤
Oh my gosh. The knowledge you impart is phenomenal. Thank you!

Thank you for that! Very interesting. I hadn't heard that in the past but I think I can imagine the origins.
Good evening, George. I got a little messed up on the time for this one...almost missed it. I had some stuff going on at 8:00pm. I'll have to go back and watch from the go. Mom had one of those Sara Coventry strawberry pins. It might still be here somewhere. I really liked the primitive items there. The flyswatter was something I'd not seen in a primitive before. Really liked that. I really liked the carpenter's box and that Coca~Cola scooter, too. $250.00 seemed a good price on it. There was a mantle piece/ewer on the washstand that caught my eye. Liked that one. I really like the carved bone hand you got. That was a supper-interesting show! Thanks for taking us along!

I'm glad you got to see it though! The Sarah Coventry pin, my mom had one as well. I suspect it was the cute thing to buy inexpensively if you were at one of those home selling parties they did. Indiana has really good primitives compared to most places, and the flyswatter got my attention! The Coke scooter was a good deal I think. The mantle sold this year at the sale, I think! Thank you, I knew you would appreciate the level of the stuff at this one
i liked the purple transferware pitcher. good episode, as always.

I think the online buyer knows what they are looking for and what the item is worth. The in person sales draw in all kinds of people. Not just those with antique and vintage knowledge. Therefore, they may not understand the pricing. Xeno cracks me up.

So many cool items to see I wish I lived close by so I could go see for myself. It was good to see Xeno and he did a great job as Vana to showcase everything you purchased. I'm always on the lookout for things that glow and love the owl. I can't wait to watch your next video. Say hi to Xeno and thanks George for all your excellent knowledge and the education you give us. 😊

:56 I know those baths as hip baths. I always have wanted one to actually use for self-sufficiency. 13:26. I have a couple of Nemadji pieces, but really want to find some nicer pieces marked The Alamo at a decent price. 14:37. I had a horse brush set and sold it for like $32 in my antique mall booth. I really didn't want to let it go. It was really cool because the vertical brush looked like a horse mane. 22:03. That quilt looks like the moire effect. Very neat.

I am drawn to the little cabinets with lots of little drawers. I would love to find a small affordable library card catalog. My very first job was processing and cataloging reference books for libraries in a SLC school district. It would be handy for storage of craft supplies and jewelry.

Xeno your hands look so soft and your nails are so clean and manicured. I often watch "picking and junkin" videos and it is hard to dig through barns and keep clean hands. It is amazing how much beter a piece looks when held by beautiful clean hands. I can say the same about Georges hands as well.
