Hi George. My mom used a laundry sprinkler in the 1940s/50s that was a cork and metal top that fit into a glass soda bottle (Dr. Pepper, of course, being from Texas).

I'm 4ft 11 and I look low all the time and stand back to look high

always enjoy these videos.

❤❤❤ George is the smartest person ever! I love learning from him.❤️

My friend departed and I have her Morgantown "glasses" ....I thought they were votive/candle holders lol

I can't believe I've never found a penguin ice bucket, lol!

Hi George and all!

Hi Pam

Thank ypu George, lots of fun !! 🎉

The Willys Autombile Company's claim to fame was the original military-issue Jeep, made in huge numbers during WW2. Surprisingly, I learned recently that the "Willys" name is actually pronounced "Will-iss," like "What you talkin' bout Willis?" 😊😊😊 Ive been an auto-ficionado for 40 years and only learned the correct pronunciation recently.

That's interesting! I've heard it mispronounced (and have done so myself) forever, I too have been into the car thing for decades and didn't now better. I thought the story about how the Jeep ended up getting the contract and the Bantam was forgotten is interesting too

I really enjoyed this tour through the antiques. Thank you for bringing them to us! 🙏💚

Thanks George! Many people arent near so engaging to newer viwers. I appreciated this a lot and enjoyed myself. Will be headin to centrLia after the weather breaks and yep. Subbed and hit the thumbs up!

Very happy to see a shopping video.

I saw the wall and knew you were in Cape!!! There was a restaurant right across from the river where I had pickled black eyed peas and loved them!!! Had lunch there with my mom many times!!! OMG I remember old Main Street!! There was an old Woolworths and it still had the old soda fountain!! My dad would take me Christmas shopping on Main St for my mother… I am Originally from Memphis but we lived in Cape when I was 9-12… out in the country where we’d be gone in the woods and creeks all day long!! I lived in Tampa Bay for 35 years and now in the PNW south of Seattle… I can’t imagine how we haven’t crossed paths… yet! 😉.

As a kid in the 1960s I remember being given some kind of Lydia E. Pinkham's tonic. I think it was considered to be like a vitamin. It was an opaque, dark brown liquid. I seem to remember it tasting like licorice.

Good evening, George! Those opera glasses were something I would go after. There was a floor lamp close to the blue boudoir lamps that I liked. The old traps always get my attention. I'd like to have a collection of those and of old mouse traps. Those looked like fun places to browse and shop. Thanks for taking us along!

Hi there, my friend! I liked those a lot. The floor lamp, I should've pointed that out, it was pretty neat too...that space was particularly interesting to me. Interesting that you go for traps, I do too, I don't necessarily like their function but I think they look cool! If you ever have reason to go up the Mississippi, Cape Girardeau is a good stop for antiquing. Thanks for coming along!

Not as bad as I thought it would be watching with CC waitng for new puter....remember ironing with a sprinkler on pop bottle for mom...top of sheets, tablecloths, dad's hankercheifs, and pillowcases,,and we sprinkled them and put them in a plastic zip bag right before doing..lol...wash, dry, sprinkle, iron...like fixing my niece's hair for dance recital when her mom was gone...all looks just wonderful and fun...thanks so much you two.

I’ve been going to Cape G at least once a year for the last twelve years, and somehow have never made it to an antique store! There was a man there who decided, around 2009, to reproduce a 1923 circular sock knitting machine that he found on eBay. It has become quite popular, and many sock machine knitters make their way there every spring to get together with other “crankers”. I’ve often wondered if you ever come across old sock machines in your travels. I never have (here in Nebraska), but a friend in Pennsylvania often does. Maybe this spring I’ll go a day early and try to get some antiquing done.

So many beautiful Things, and pleasant company too! Thank you! ❤ I just ordered a copy of the schiffer Morgantown Glass book, hoping it will help me identify more pieces in the wild and of course the mystery pieces in my own collection...I am forever trying to i.d. stuff that I have grabbed because it grabbed me!

Was Lydia Pinkham the source of “Lily the Pink” (song by The Scaffold). Seems quite a coincidence.

We had a contemporary lucite lamp/ chandelier much like that one at the beginning of the video! I still love that style - although don’t have the grandeur decor that I used to have. Do you recall how much it was?

George thank you so much for always sharing all your knowledge with us. At 22:55 next to the State Teachers College China is a saw with a decorative wood handle. Do you or anyone reading this know anything about that saw? I have one just like it - probably from my grandfather’s house. He was a carpet layer and I have many of his old tools.

Oh, you're in Cape, how fun! I just started the video but had to comment (I've been a subscriber for a long time!) - I'm in Sikeston, which is just 30 minutes south. I hope you check out the beautiful levee mural down the street (Water Street - I guess we'll see!) Thank you so much for always making such happy videos, George! ❤😊 (My husband was from Cairo, and I'm still drawn to it, despite everything - still some absolutely exquisite buildings, and a few magnificent private homes!) And I need two camels for my 1960s Woolworth's Nativity (my Mom only got me one - I guess the other two kings had to walk) - I'm going to check those out - thank you!

Incorrect Puerto Rico was named that ( rich port by the Spaniards) the Gringos decided to change it to Porto because they weren’t smart enough to pronounce puerto….lets get history straight here.

New store - if you get a new one, go on opening day., Odds are good some dealers put in some really good stuff. It's worked in thrift stores too. The last grand opening I hit was a total bust, but other times you're batting clean-up and they lob you a 25mph "fast"ball. (and it goes out into the parking lot over the center field fence!)
