A dirt road in rural Nebraska leads us to one of the most rural estate sales--and one of the most unusual antique malls--that we’ve ever explored.
We’re following a garage sale route through rural Nebraska, and our first fun garage sale stop takes us to a bargain on Titan Golden Canaries--and a random drive farther into the countryside. Miles from anywhere, we suddenly pass an antique mall housed in old grain bins. Intrigued, we call the number on the sign, become the day's first visitors and start discovering cool stuff. The barn and its resident cats lead us through thoughtful country displays filled with general store cabinets, primitive farm furniture, early 1900s kitchenware, tins, phones, tools, typewriters, crocks, scales and all kinds of hardware.
The surprises continue outside, where 21 grain bin buildings hold individual dealer displays packed with antiques and vintage finds. Jewelry cases offer bargain bling, pocket knives, half dolls and compacts, while the bins reveal great buys on Bauer pottery, Hedi Schoop figurines, mesh bags and more. This place is very remote, but it rewards the drive with the kind of unexpected discoveries that make exploring small-town antique shops so much fun.
From there, we head west into another time zone and reach Madrid, Nebraska, where a collector estate sale still has plenty to offer on its half-off day. An impossibly cheap saddle, a calf weaner, an embossed 1907 corer and a really good wood plane join vintage kitchenware and glassware in my pile until I’m squeezing purchases into every vacant space in the van.
Estate sales and antique malls both prove to be terrific sources across the Great Plains, where some of the best vintage finds appear in places we would never expect!

An expert antique hunter explores garage sales, estate sales, and a unique collective in Nebraska. The journey focuses on identifying authentic \"farmhouse\" primitives, mid-century collectibles, and industrial equipment while providing professional insights on authentication, pricing, and the distinction between genuine antiques and modern reproductions.
We are at the Buffalo Bill Cody Trading Post in North Platte, Nebraska. This is where he started
his Wild West show. But we're not here to trade in new stuff. We are here to look for old stuff
at garage sales, and that's what we're going to do right now. We are headed to a garage sale
out past Lake Maloney. I'm expecting farmhouse and country items and that sort of thing at these
sales. Real farmhouse, not the stuff that you paint white and pretend. All right, this looks
like old Paris porcelain here to me. 1890s, that's cute. Little chip there though. Nice
crystal englaze studio pottery. Big centerpiece, but newer. These are starting to be collectible
out of the 90s. Ah, the yellow birds of happiness with the signature. I know the yellow birds are
something else, but I'll take those. Golden canary, that's right. That looks like a precious moment,
but isn't that cute? Nice little hair receiver there. Oh, that's neat. I like how that turns
into her skirt. Yeah, there weren't a whole lot of garage sales out today, but I saw yours and
thought I better come out and take a look because you had some neat stuff. Ah, the puzzles. I
remember this one from when I was a kid. I loved that show. Good old beck knife sheath there. Go
to the head of the class. That's a great old game. Nice 1910s porcelain. I like this one.
Joan Trelknap. Good old hall teapot with the windshield and a porcelier behind it.
Yeah, that's always the next thing, where to put it.
So there's one antique collective in this part of central Nebraska,
and it's out here. Can you believe it? And there is the entrance. Well, I see we have a couple of
guards in front of the door, and it doesn't seem to be open, but there's a phone number to call,
so we'll do that. You guys can't open it for me? So my understanding is that all of these
grain bins have merchandise in them, as well as this big barn building. This should be really
something different, and he's opening up now. I've seen the sides for this place along Interstate 80
and have never stopped here before and taken the time to get off the road and find it. It's a ways
off the road, and it is a big place. Look at that cool old scale from a grocery store. We are talking
serious farmhouse. Real farmhouse. Decor and primitives and general stored finds that are real,
including all the ball jars full of various stuff like people would have used on the farm
and the crock waterer there. This is real stuff, not the kind of stuff you slap paint on and scrape.
Three generations of kitschy pottery here. The one on the left is American from the 30s,
the donkey cart on the right is 1950s Japanese, and the one in the middle is 70s Japanese when
you can see the quality got better. And it's good to know about places like this that have a lot of
old hardware and old parts and things that you can use for repairs and restoration or repurposing,
and wow, they've got a whole bin full of it. I mean, a lot of this stuff is farm fresh,
including this hundred dollar wheel, and this cabinet full of various 1950s mid-century
tins and cans. These are fun to collect, and they are a little cheaper than the earlier
tins from the Victorian era. Regional spice tins always seem to sell. And for wall decor,
well, you have the old wall phones and then this big old map of the world from about 1970.
I use this trick at my estate sales. If I have a staircase where I don't want people to walk
upstairs, I just use it as shelving. A lot of those wood bowls are munsoning from Minneapolis.
Nice old wood cabinet back before kitchens had cabinets in the 19-teens. Well, you had
furniture like this, and they're asking $500 for that today. Compare that to cabinetry.
A great old American soda fountain from about 1910. American because it's not mahogany.
They're asking $18,000, but I've seen these sell between $15,000 and $20,000 before,
so that's actually not an outrageous price. What a cool piece. And in it would go these
Hall China dispensers from about 1930 in black. This was a very basic 1930s utility cabinet that
someone has redecorated. I actually like the addition of the print with the woman on the
beach on the bottom. It seems like it matches those handles. Inside we have a bunch of Ohio
pottery from 1930s and 40s. And I always look for things with a little more detail, so I'm going to
pick this one up because it's got the eyes and the black wings. I'm not sure who made that,
but it's a cute piece. And then behind here, now this one's monochrome, but that's an ostrich,
and we never see those. $10. That's an unusual form and just fun and funky and whimsical,
and I'm going to take it. Love the interwoven sock display. Very art deco. Great for cubbyholes
for linens as they're using here, or gloves, or you could also use them for paper and maps. It'd
great for a collector. $295. A hundred bucks on the old wood shoe bench from the store from about
1920, and oh, I seem to have gotten into their workspace. What a crock indeed. What a great
general store cabinet, first of all, to display them all in. But what a great selection of crocks.
We're in a part of the country where people really prize these, and so I'm sure that the number three
at about a hundred dollars is about right for here. I like the old waterers a lot. You notice
there's different shapes. That one looks more like Devo wore on their heads in that video. $125
on the crown water cooler with the metal spigot, which means it's a little bit older.
And these number twos. There's Whitehall from Illinois facing us there. Now farm kids would
have had toys like anybody else, but usually more simple and straightforward like these stamped
metal toys from the 1930s. I really like the streamlined train. Just the shape of it is really
cool. These were basic. They were inexpensive. So was this pottery back then, but now that
Roseville poppy piece, that's a good pattern, and that's worth about $95. These are bottom-up
tumblers. Now this malachite color is a reproduction from about the late 1980s. They were so popular in
the 30s, and they were originally made by McKee, and they did them in custard glass that glows under
a blacklight. Those are worth about $400. But this one is a reproduction because it you took it out
and looked under the heels where she's bent. Under her heels it would say Patent USA if it's
original, and this one will not say that because that color wasn't made back then. I like this very
translucent porcelain piece from Germany. Very sweet. A little bit of light comes through it,
and they're asking $30, which seems like a fair price for that. Gertrude Alice Kay. That book is
from 1920. Great graphics. And next to it is an osmoscope from the 70s. It's like a kaleidoscope,
they put a marble in the end that you would look at and turn to get the various colors,
and so it's a little different spin on that idea. The half-doll pincushions look like they're well
priced, and we'll have to go around and take a look at them and see the condition, but I would
pick those up. Lots of razors. I don't see any rare models. And over here some old hubcaps from
Fords and Chevys of the 1920s, and at six and eight dollars I'll take those. Dione Quint
hankies from the 1940s. Those are cute. There would have originally been five for each one,
one for each day of the week, and they're asking $15 a piece. The half-doll pincushion is very
cute. She has a cute printed dress, and for $10 that's a bargain. I would probably sell her for
around $25, and I'll take it. So to get in this case they said pull the drawers from the back,
so we're in upside down-o-vision, but I'm going to look at these Skookum dolls. Now these have
plastic shoes and composition faces. That's going to make them from around 1950. That's a transition
time, and because of that $20 a piece is really about all they're worth. So at $40 a pair it's
a fair price, but not for me. I really do like Spurs. They're great for decoration. I look for
things that have a lot of detail, if possible. Of course the serious collectors want names on them,
and then I look to see whether they have any patina. These are really cool, but
they're really, really, really, really shiny, and I don't think that they're old.
They're at least not enough age. Of course nickel plating can look shiny, so you have to look
closely. In the back here, let's see, those are not going to come out. This one, do we have a mate,
because $20 is a decent price on that. It looks like it's Mexican. Not quite as well detailed
in that particular instance. And yes, we do have a pair. At $20 for the pair, yes, I'll be having
those, because even not as detailed. They're still cool. They look great in decor, and
generally the people who are buying these are either decorating with them, or they're serious
collectors who want them for parade dress. Now we're headed outside, and the grain bins, this
is just so unique. Each one of these is a dealer space, and there's 21 of them. So let's see how
they display space to space. This one obviously is going for like the canning room and the kitchen
area, the food prep and storage. I like the kitchen queen there. I keep thinking with the way people
like to redecorate and redo things, it's surprising to me that people commit to spending lots of money
on standard kitchen cabinetry, when you really could use furniture and do the same thing.
And this one is covered with lots of redwood, handle stuff from the 40s and 50s,
including this. I love the graphics. I look for things with graphics. Is the canoper not in there?
Well, the hanger is. The hanger is actually the hard part to find, so maybe we can find the rest
of it, and we'll have a deal there. This one's in amazing shape. Out in rural places, or at camps,
or if you were traveling, you might take a stove like this along, and it would have four different
burners that you would put gas in. The color blue lets us know it's 1920s, just like the Coleman
blue gas irons that were used in that time. It's cool that there's so many facing walls,
because these are octagonal, so you can do up to five different vignettes. This one features a
cool mid-century fireplace clock, and some great old fans that people are hot after now.
A bunch of moonstone on the bottom there, and milk glass on the second shelf.
I'm looking for fenton again, because teak stock's coming again in September,
and these are coin dot. Dot because it's solid, with the dot being clear. Coin spot is the
opposite way. I believe this is a Hager version of what had originally been a Weller design.
And up here, let's see what else we've got. Old milk cans that have been decorated,
old wainscot cabinet here with a bunch of brown drip plates, and in the back a very pretty
Gibson Girl pyrography piece done with stippling. And that one's rather well done. These were home
projects in the teens, and that one's $30. The next grain bin is not as thematic, but I really
do like the mix with the etched mirror from the 1930s above the 1870s. Little chest of drawers,
and that's how you would have seen it out on the farm. You just added, you didn't remodel.
This one with the drop poles is clearly 1870s because of the poles and these cartouches,
and they are asking $185 for that. Over here we see a bunch of blue and white, and oh,
I see Danish pieces. I have a hunch these might be undervalued because I'm noticing that Bingham
Grondel and Royal Copenhagen, because the collector plates have really bit the dust in value, no one's
valuing the other old pieces. And like this one for Easter 1920 is worth three times that price.
This one back here is the 1896 plate for the wedding of Prince Karl of Denmark. The wavy blue
lines front and back tell us this is Royal Copenhagen, and that's a bargain. And we're
going to look at this one too. This is the commemoration of the 25th wedding anniversary
of King Christian X in 1923. There is an audience for these harder to find plates amongst my
collectors, and at these prices I will take all of these. And what an unusual thing to find here.
The price on this plateau is great, but you can tell that it is gesso and not old. The graduate
salt and pepper shakers are cute. The plastic stoppers come from the 1970s or so, and to the
80s and 90s. That's how you tell from the older ones with the cork stoppers, but they're cute for
$10. I need to show you folks this because this is a fake. See how the background is blue rather
than white? A light blue. And that mark says Victoria. That is a fantasy mark. These were done
about 1990 as reproductions of blue and white transfer, where you can tell that background
color is just not right. It's almost like celadon. These on the other hand are correct with the white
background. I grew up around small farms, so some of this stuff is unfamiliar to me. We didn't have
anyone with a threshing machine. What would you do with those rollers? Can you think of a way to
repurpose those? Leave a comment. I'd be curious. And then up here are some wonderful old lighting.
Those look like they were out of either a church or a small theater, and they are going to date to
about the early 1960s. Just a great look. And look how they've suspended them from an old orchard
ladder. This is a place I've been to twice and have never seen. The first time it was closed,
the second time there was a blizzard, and it was so foggy you couldn't see into the valley. But this
is Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. A beautiful place. I'd like to go there again. This is a 1940s
piece that was given out by the gas stations to get you to go out and travel after the Second
World War when rations were over. Genuine old brass beds do not get spots and speckles like
the newer versions do, and that's why they're worth getting. This is unusual to see in Nebraska.
The anchor tells us that this is an English-made stained glass window. It's been 70 some years,
so this diaper pail no longer smells bad. In fact, it was really well kept and clean,
and I love anything you can step on and the top opens. I would use that as a regular trash can
at my house for $40. A double K nuts machine. You could use this today just like you could
in the 1950s when it was made. Double K was out of Chicago, and they were a huge distributor of
nuts to various candy stores and drug stores. And in the Depression, to save their business,
they came up with the idea of franchising. And these machines kept them going, and this one
still works and is in perfect condition. I believe they're asking $800 for it. I must say I prefer
these bins to Good Road Dead when finding more stuff. Another cool Western display. Look how
they've used this wagon wheel to hang all of these implements and lanterns and the skulls above.
And then over here, ooh, now this is a surprise find. This is Bauer pottery from Los Angeles,
and in black, which is a pretty hard color to find, actually. They're asking $30. It's a great
art deco style from the late 30s, and I will take it for that price. I just don't really find this
color glaze very often. I believe that's about a $65 to $75 piece, and I'm holding it in the
sun to make sure it doesn't have scratches. You have to check those pretty carefully.
The AM FM radio by RCA Victor from the late 50s was a little ahead of its time,
until hi-fi came along and the technology improved in the late 60s. Most people didn't
have access to FM radio. Then it took over the airwaves in the 70s. A bunch of windows there
from an old barn find. Those could be useful or fun to use and to make new cabinets and things.
And then I see a bunch of copper kettles. These look like 19-teens and 20s. Copper was very
popular as part of the arts and crafts movement at that time, but also popular for kettles because
it heats a lot faster than other metals. This 1920s version is 125. They've also got copper
bedpans and then a variety of other kettles and various metals from the teens, 20s, and 30s.
And today's farmhouse chic is for the birds, because someone has taken this old crate and
adorned it with an old piece of a wood stove and metal stars and turned it into a birdhouse.
Terrorists meant we couldn't get Dutch clocks in the 1930s, so American companies made their
own versions. This one is priced at $50. Now we're getting into some of the grain bins that
are set up more like the smalls in antique stores, which is great because I look for a lot of smalls.
And there's some really good Fire King jadeite there. The refrigerator dish and the grill plate
in particular. And I like that casserole dish. That is wild where you start seeing these tropical
designs after World War II. I may have to get some help out here because I can't see prices,
and I do like the head vases. Ooh, $50 is tempting on that lucite covered purse. It's just a wee bit
more than I'd want to give for it. It's a great piece though. If you can't tell the difference
between a Nesco Holiday Hostess and Left and Holly, well neither can anybody else, so mix and
match. A bunch of salt and pepper shakers here. I really like these donkeys on the end. And this
donkey by Brayton Laguna of California, which made its way to the Midwest, and they are asking $32
for that. Manhattan glass compotes are really popular with collectors because they use them
as martini glasses, and that's why the pink ones sell for as much as $45 still, even though the
rest of Manhattan glass is less expensive than it used to be as a pattern. A bunch of 1930s
aluminum cookware in this bin. Down here, a croquet set. I would love to buy this, but the
balls are just a little bit too worn. They probably bleached in the sun out here in this part of the
country. Mexican puppets from the 50s. Good price on this 1970s tin doll hutch for only $15. That's
amazing, really. This looks like a McCoy vase, but this one has a surprise when you see this shape
and you see the hole in it. That's because originally this could be made into a lamp,
and this one is a lamp, in fact, and they are asking $60 for it. Love's Paradise is probably
R. Atkinson Fox's most famous work, and yes, it's very similar to Maxfield Parish. How do you tell
the difference? Well, if you don't have the signature, one way is to look at the faces.
Foxes are a little bit more definite in their features than Parishes, and they're asking $65.
Old Colony, also known as Open Lace, was discontinued when Anchor and Hawking merged
in 1938. It's collectible now. They really like Hull's Butterfly from the late 1950s. This was
another of the Louise Bower designs. Not related to Bower Pottery, just a coincidence in the name.
They're asking $29. You'll definitely see nice linens and embroidery and handmade pieces,
including children's clothing, out here on the plains, because that was entertainment on a long
cold winter's night, as well as something to do to help the family. And back in Victorian times,
they even tie-dyed. Yes, that was long before the 60s, folks. I still sell Cap Guns pretty well,
especially if they have the holsters. These seem to be priced in the $25 to $40 range.
In the early days, cars did not have trunks, so you strapped something like this on the back,
and this one you could take picnicking with you. It has all the enamelware, all the utensils,
everything you need, and is priced around $120 today. To be a hustler in the 70s didn't mean
what it means today, and so this water ski was named because it was quick, and someone either
had one leg or was a great trickster and only needed one ski. $48 on this. The mid-century did
come to everywhere in the United States, so you will see pieces like that in Polyamber Ewer down
there, but I'm particularly fond of this. This is Hager's Nautilus, one of the versions, and this is
the Royal Hickman version with his signature on the bottom. That is why it's called Royal Hager.
It had nothing to do with royalty. It was in honor of the designer. Great piece. Stipple patterns in
press glass were very popular around 1900, and McKinley was shot and assassinated in 1901,
so the memorial plate has that element to it in this design for $25.
Oh wow, look at these. Heddy Shoop. They are so great. The flowers are added. I frankly would
remove them, and I might because, ooh, look at the price. Okay, is that for the pair,
or are they priced individually? They were sold as a pair, and they should be kept as a pair.
Heddy Shoop emigrated from Germany and became a Hollywood set designer, and then started her
ceramics firm, and her stuff is just so fun. Look at all the motion and all the detail.
Lots of things to be broken on these, but they're in perfect shape, and they are priced individually,
but this set being more elaborate is still worth at least $100 and a quarter to $135,
so I think I'm going to take those. Another thing you would not imagine would be here,
and it seems kind of misplaced, and that's why it's priced right. Those are the things to look
for when you shop. All right, we made it to cabin number 21. This one is set up a little more like
maybe a hunting lodge slash a shop because it has this very safety orange painted cubby hole
system with all the shop stuff in it, and then this cubby hole set. Now this one's for sale,
and it's interesting because this one was done originally for the School of the Deaf.
Very interesting. So everything's very clearly labeled. They're asking $400 for that. Well,
this place certainly is unique, and I'm so glad I got here to show you. We take you on
interesting adventures all over North America, so subscribe if you haven't, and then click the bell

thumbs up to let YouTube know you're liking this video. We do turn around for garage sales,
and we just saw a sign for another one. Now it says tools, but I learned a long time ago
always go look. It takes a minute, and if there isn't anything for you, you know right away.
I'm going to do something that's a good idea if I don't see anything old. Let's see the tools.
The hammers are old, but they'd have to be a lot older. These are good usable things.
Okay, that's not old. I was hoping maybe it was railroad related because Union Pacific
is such a big deal here. Stanley tools, DeWalt. Fun but not old yet. I'm mainly looking for old
stuff. Is there anything like that? No, not really. Okay, very good. Okay, sometimes out in a farm like
this, you never know what people have squirreled away. That makes sense. This is a newer house,
a newer building, and so he doesn't have anything old, but when you're in an old house or on an old
farm, and you don't see anything old, sometimes if you say, oh yeah, do you have anything old
squirreled away you want to get rid of, they will bring things out, and you might be surprised. I
really good radio in Spokane, Washington that way once. Nebraska has some really great stuff. There's
junk, John. There's lots of things in these farms and out in the country, but if you're just passing
through casually, it can be really hard to find information about it. I had to go to Facebook
marketplace of Craigslist to find Eddie's garage sales, and there's just not a lot of people here.
So we are going to go a little out of our way to Madrid, Nebraska, and it's about an hour's drive,
but because we crossed from Mountain Time to Central Time, we get that hour back. This one
sounds like a bunch of farm stuff. There is old. There is vintage, and it apparently is some miles
down this dirt road. All right, an old barn, some newer buildings. This is sold. Wonder how much.
This is sold. Wow. I'm glad to see that found a home. Herder's catalogs are good for old sporting
equipment. 59 Dodge. I wish they didn't put the sticker right on it, though.
John Deere weeders. See, John Deere stuff is so popular. This might sell, but it's not in
good condition. Same with these. This is day two, so they may have had more things. They were in
better condition. Oh, the diesel tractor. Some people do think tractors are sexy.
Operator's manual that that is for a drill.
Attachments. Ten dollars. What is this? Oh, now that's in good condition, and that matters a lot
because a lot of these old manuals got greased out pretty badly. Okay, not selling some of the
big power tools or the vise. Most of this just looks useful. Now being day two, well, we'll see
what's left, but there are things inside as well. This was advertised very strangely. It only said
estate sale when you got here, and I think it's a partial living estate. Aw, he needs a good cleaning
and his squeaker back. Ah, Dodge Brothers. That's quite old, like a 1920s hubcap, but it's not in
great shape. Too crusty. That's broken. Ah, Ford Model T hub and a Chevrolet hub. The Chevrolet is
probably more valuable because they made more of the Fours, and Chevrolet started painting their
cars other colors. Boric acid. Whoops. I actually think I'm going to get the Chevrolet. I suspect I
can get $15 or $20 for it. $18 on this, which is a gun loading setup. That might not be a bad price
since it has a box, although the box is not in good shape. Motor oil can. Billy Beer. Hey, there we go.
Ham's is a dollar. That one has never been opened somehow. This is an old cone top. If it was in
good shape, we'd get that because cone tops with their lids in good condition are older and more
interesting to people. Billy Carter Beer. That's silly enough to buy. I'm sure it's going to be a
dollar. Torches. Oh yes, this is to keep your calves away from mom when it's time for her to
heal and for them to grow up and wean off of her. Five dollars on the rule. A little bent.
This one's two, but that's stained. Six dollars. That might clean up, but it's missing a metal piece.
$60 on the wood plane. It's probably a hundred dollar plane, I would imagine.
They just look cool. Some people just buy them as decoration, actually. Atkinson of Baltimore.
OK, they just told me that it is half off unless it says Friday price or firm, so I'm going to have
to look at this more closely. We are in a remote enough place. You have to sometimes just trust
your instincts because we're not going to get a signal out here. This little wiener is really
mean looking and really cool, and I'm going to take it just for the shape because sometimes modernists
like buying weird stuff like this just because of the look. So I'm already going to be making a pile
here, it looks like. So ten and five on those. I don't really have a lot of room for big things,
though. Ten on the Senator. I would use that, but I have so many crates in the car already I can't
fit another one. Twenty-two is eleven on the tractor seat. Various things to split. Hay bales and
saw blades. Twenty bucks on that. Nine dollars on the Stanley plane, but
I see this one a lot. It's probably the most common. They're good. It would sell for 20.
Now I'm hoping and wishing maybe the sticker would come off of this safely. It could be peeled with
a hairdryer because this is the owner's manual, and owner's manuals go for a little more than the
selling brochures. And this was a funky looking car, but definitely one of those winged things
with the big fins from the 50s that people remember well. Chevrolet hubcap from the 40s.
This one might be closer to 1950. They're okay, but a little pitted out. Ten bucks is five on the
pulley, and pulleys sell well because people in suburban homes like to use them to hang things.
We'll take this now that it's six dollars instead of twelve. Square nails would be worth having if
you were restoring a piece of furniture. Lots of shoe lasts. They generally are not that interesting
unless they're with a bigger set. Pitters. These are the kind of things that sell really well in
the Midwest, but that one is broken. And this one, it's got a nice shape here with the hearts. It
doesn't really have any... oh no wait, there's some embossing. If you wet it with your finger,
you can read it better. Sinclair Scott Company. Baltimore again. Okay, now that I got the bolt
in the right way, it works. And we'll take that. The old panel door with the glass is a nice thing.
If you needed one, it's only $25. I mean, these farm sales are the place to get this sort of
thing. The Sowers has sold 35 on that saddle. And look at the detail. That's a steal. I should
buy it. I don't know if I can really get it in the car. I also have a saddle for sale.
But look at all the detail in that. It's really in good shape. Well, that saddle is going to kill
me because it's so cheap. I really want it. It would require a lot of repositioning in the car.
Old Traps do sell as wall decorations. I don't see prices on any of them.
The old birds. These are the pretty standard ones that are essentially paper mache. But the prices
are right. I mean, $3.50 and this one has glass eyes. If it had both of them, I would take him.
But I would have to get two to get one glass eye. It would have been nice to have the pair.
Of course, for two dollars you could get this one and take the glass eyes out and repair the other
two, which would be the thing to do. But I'm not here to buy projects. Lots more pulleys. I think
I like the first one I picked up. There's something about the shape of it. Let's see. This
Punch. 1878 patent. The Tubular Rivet Company. Oh, it's a riveter. Boston, Massachusetts. 1912
patent. Lots of hay hooks and ice tongs. Kind of the usual thing over here. We've got some lanterns.
The brass one is $22.50, but I don't think it's wildly old and I think it's coated to look like brass.
This one, sold by Montgomery Ward, was probably made by Coleman and might be the deal. Yes, KKK
Medicine. They were not thinking of the supremacist group when they came up with that logo, obviously.
Bottle capper with all the supplies for $40. Something you would have used out on a farm.
Oh, floating lights with wicks. Somebody got all fancy at Mission Dolores and brought those back
as a souvenir. There's Gray Pet. That was from Camden, Arkansas. Same as Camark Pottery, which
is why they made the Gray Pet dogs. Pepsi colas with the one spot. Those are 1960s vintage.
An old Mountain Dew for $3.50. A couple of them. Lots of the standard velvet tobacco, but we see
those more than any. Grease tin. Ooh, look at this. Nash's Coffee. And you can get a special
pair of nylons. This is late 50s. Regularly $1.25 a pair. Save $1.50. So Nash's Coffee in the new crop
was selling advertising on its product. That is funny. And you know what? That makes it
interesting to me for $10. I'll take it. All right. Well, I see a piece of jewelry I like right away
in here. It's missing a stone. Hmm. Is it worth having that one fixed? It's not signed, but it
really is a good look. It's missing two stones. So at $3 plus repairs, I think I'm in. I think
that's a nice piece worth saving. The Scotty, a very cheap penny watch when pocket watches became
really, really inexpensive. Salt Dibs. Pontiac logo. That would have been a key fob.
Sometime 1930s or 40s likely, but I do not see a silver mark. Little collar pins in gold plate.
Cute little cash register. That's a pencil sharpener. Gillette box, but nothing in it. It
feels empty. Ah, the Camel Cigarette Holder for $2.50. Those I actually saw sometimes.
Remington. Oh, shaving powder sticks. Lots of fun little stuff here. A baseball on Wilson score
taper. That's kind of neat. The old fob with Nebraska and the Cowboy. I think I might take
this. Tractor and Gas Engine Review. Who else do we have in here? Legion Theater. That's kind
of fun that they had a theater in this tiny little town. Lots of Jerry Lewis and Elvis.
The Russian Revolution. The American Presidency. The Johnson years. This would have been for the
Nebraska 1867 to 1967 centennial. $9 on the slide rule. Maybe I should get the little magnet. It's
handy to have a magnet with you to test things to see if they're iron or not. Someone in my family
collects elongated pennies. That one's Sea World. That one's Vegas. And this one, can't really tell,
but it's something she doesn't have. Pedometer. That's a newer one though. The Must for Rust.
Never heard of that. I usually use CLR. Oh yeah, the Blink Outdoor Setup for the camera.
That one said Friday price, so it's not on sale. Okay, there seems to be a downstairs. I think
we're allowed in here. Yeah, I like the bar. It's my favorite thing so far. This looks like Olympia
Beer. Oh, Coors. Okay, these are Falstaff. I was just in St. Louis. These are Bartlett Collins. Those
would have sold for a lot more there. Everything has its place. And it looks like we have some old
Montgomery Ward catalogs. And you know I like catalogs. This one is 1967. Somebody maybe missed
out on their $720,000 shopping spree. That's a pretty specific number. Yeah, that's some 60s
polyester happening there. Definitely the styles of that day. Hmm, I think we might get that one.
This one is, well, no, it's a little torn on the cover though. This one pretty worn,
missing the back cover. This one has loose pages. So the best one of the three is this,
but I just don't think the condition is where I need it to be. However, we do have the Spiegel
catalog. A little worn, but in good shape. This looks 50s. His shoes, service shoes.
Let's see what the furniture looks like. Oh, snip cutters. There's our sensationally low-priced
furniture. I like that linoleum. And the patio furniture is pretty great. Oh, and I would take
any of those. Yeah, I think this is the one I want. Not a lot else down here. Again, I'm getting
the impression this is a living estate because it's not super packed, but there are some things.
Now, shop boxes. These old ones. These sell for pretty good money sometimes. That one's kind of
dirty, but this one for four dollars. I bet I can sell that. I see an afghan. Oh, and flower bags,
but they're pretty faded. Not amazing graphics. Some old reel-to-reels. Burlites.
Julia Lee's party time. That looks fun. No sleeves. Oh, here we go. What do you think?
Cover model. I am going to get the two most interesting hats. This one's in good shape with
the veil, and then this one's got rhinestones. So I think we'll give those a try. I'm always bringing
so much to shows that I miss out on some of the big stuff. This is only $25. It's 1950s. It's in
great condition, and it's a magnifier. This is probably a hundred dollar piece, but I'm not sure
how I would fish it into the car between all the boxes. That's a very sweet Victorian print
with a little overpainting, but it's a little crinkled, unfortunately, in the new frame.
These are Montague, and these are knockoffs of DeGrazia. They sort of
mix the DeGrazia look with the keen sadness in the big eyes. Okay, everybody, I challenge you.
Put your name in here, and remember what you want to be when you grow up. There is still time.
Not a lot in this room. Some Hallmark ornaments. These are cute, but not old. I think these are
newer. Yeah, look at the big holes. Feathers. This is FDR for the new deal. 1930s. $250 is a pretty
good price. There was this in Happy Days Are Here Again. Definitely a living estate, because a lot
of stuff is out of here. Let's see if there's anything in the kitchen. Newer Fiesta. One old
piece of Harlequin from the 30s, but it's got a scratch. A cute little Kappensazer Primmmeter.
And that one, Japanese. 1950s, I'd say. More newer Fiesta.
I see a little Depression glass. Queen Mary pattern on the top. Royal Ruby.
This is an older porcelain. Kind of your typical florals from about 1910 to 20.
A patterned glass berry set that's complete from about 1900. That's a new Martensville pattern.
They turned into Viking. Lots of early American by Anker Hocking. The one thing that would probably
be worth getting is the ladle. Glass ladles are hard to find these days. New handles on this old
commode made of poplar, not oak. Well, the folks at Meadowlark Estate Sale were very nice. The prices
were good at half off on a lot of things that I liked, and it was really fun to shop at a farm
and see different kinds of things than we see a lot of estate sales. Our hour diversion from the
freeway is over. We are in Ogallala, and there is one last shop we can go to. There's a faded sign
that says Antiques. It's J-Dog's Junkin' Embroidery and Consignment Shop in U-Haul. You know, some of
these crazy mixed businesses end up having good stuff. We'll just find out. And there's the
Simmons Camp Stove. Well, there's a huge display right in front. Tulip is good, and sometimes the
small mixing bowls are the hardest to find. Twenty-eight dollars, half off of the Florence.
Only five dollars. Oh, she's got a chip, though. Camille is one of the more commonly seen, but
she's very pretty. This looks like a Leften. Oh, Sans Co. Forty bucks on the phone. Good color.
So many deer, so little time. This one says it's a gazelle, but
it's Stuart B. McCulloch. I guess it does have an horn. And then this one looks like Royal Coakley.
Unfortunately, it has a crack. Swamp Root. Kidney, liver, and bladder here.
$12.99 each on the kitschy dogs. Love the old travel alarm. Thirteen is a pretty good price
these fold over. Well, they're supposed to. This one seems to be...there it is. Oh, the cover isn't
all there. Pure Milk from Muscatine, Iowa. $22. There's one from Greeley, Colorado. Another cute
little child's appliance from around 1970, and a couple of 1970s lunch boxes. Lots of fun salts
and peppers. They're all priced as they should be. Some older Fiesta. Oh, I really like this guy.
German. This is a copy of a Czech design, but they're asking $32. Royal Coakley must have sold
a lot in this area because there's a bunch of the hens and the birds. We see a lot of these
airpods from about 1980 with the poppies and other designs. They're only asking $10.
And the 1970s child's Toastmaster. The toast is going to burn. This cute little car planter is
Shawnee from about $19.48. Let's see how old Mickey and Minnie are. Yeah, Disney, so that's after 1986.
Calico Fruit. I always like that pattern. Look at that little spaghetti guy with the bee on his
nose. That's very cute. They're asking $32, so they got the memo. There's the sweet little head
vase with the hands out. This would have tended to get chipped and broken because there are lots
of edges and it hasn't, and it's only $12. We found something. $55 on the red lucite grapes.
I have red that are opaque. I hope you enjoy this day in western Nebraska. Every region has
