I think you should take all those stamps you found to a professional stamp collector as they could be very valuable that’s my opinion.From Perth Scotland. Love your program. Take care.
You two make me feel old. I am 60 years old but my mind doesn't say I'm that old. You talking about stuff from the 80s was not that long ago in my mind. Thanks for showing all you do love the channel.
Lol,I just turned 69 and my son and his 3 teenagers live with in the back of my duplex. They are always up here. I think they just check up on me. I am fine as long as I don't fall! Lol!
I find it so sad that the precious memories someone has so carefully saved from their childhood will never be passed on to their family. Sometimes there is no family, so I wonder why we save these things. I have so many things that are precious to me but no one to leave them to. Sad. 😢
Don't feel no one understands. So many people but so many are sad and alone. Sell anything of value. Things should not define us. If you can't find someone to love, I sincerely hope you can find something that you love to do!
Love it just watched you open the goat with the old oil cans with the oil in them and I'm 65 and it's been a lot of years sense I've seen oil in cans like that .I used to open them with a pocket knife or the opener witch I think I saw in the goat with the oil cans .thanks for the memories and keep showing them and I'll keep watching you for sure.
Those are hinges to mount the stamps into a stamp book. You have mint (unused) blocks, First Day Covers and used stamps. Nice collection of stamps. Very interested.
Wade, please, please check the value of everything carefully. A lot of the items you are thinking aren’t valuable, are worth a lot. Don’t miss out on the full potential of the money that can be made from this unit. Be patient and check them out carefully. Best wishes.
Hello Wade, due to the money problems we are very care how much electricity we use. If you, Ashley and Grandma Ventures don't see a lot of me that's why sweetheart. God bless you all, have a wonderful holiday season, love and hugs to you all Mary-Ellen UK
@@leisahammonds4479 We are elderly and I am badly disabled and our home is on a farm. My husband has to drive to the nearest shops and doctors, its getting very expensive to live and its oil heating only on the farm, everything is more expensive and keeps going up. I am bedridden and am wrapped up well as is my husband still we have each other and lots of love and food to eat so I shouldn't grumble. I pray you have a lovely Christmas, God bless you, please keep safe..
@@mezellenjohnson2753I’m sorry to hear that you’re in such a financial strain and are having a difficult time. I hope things may ease up for you soon and that you can stay warm this winter. God bless.
Makes me think a lot of the new clothing items may have been gifts never used. This family loved the items from their travels and kept them all as new. Just a wonderful storage. The Duck items will be hot sellers. I lived in Eugene area for twenty years. I have all of my parents slides. They were hikers and back packers, and Dad took wonderful slides. Hundred hundreds of slides. I loved watching you two go through this locker. Much fun.
Lot of older people would get gifts like beautiful nightgowns and sweaters and things and they would wrap them in tissue paper and store them away because they were too good to wear. Then they would wear their old ratty cotton sweaters with the holes in the sleeves and their tattered underwear. When my mother-in-law died she had beautiful lingerie stored in her dresser drawer wrapped in tissue paper.
Hello! I love this locker! The old book titled Robinson Crusoe, was written by British author Daniel Defoe and was first published in 1719. I doubt very much it's a first edition but it certainly looks old! Also a pretty good book to read!
You should both be kind of embarrassed if you've never heard of Robinson Crusoe before. No judgement if you haven't read it, but if you don't even recognize the name, your school system has epically failed you.
That was a fun unit, those old items brought back fond memories for sure. The ice trays and the aprons made me think of my mother, God rest her soul. Be safe driving home and then get warmed up. I live in Phoenix/Glendale, Arizona so I do feel sorry for you being in that cold weather.
Just a note for your future units. Hats and gloves especially the white ones were wore in the 1950's. You always wore hats and gloves and there was glove etiquette what length to wear at certain times a day. Lots of rules for hats and gloves.
There is a sold ducks blanket on eBay for 105.00 like yours! Can't believe you never heard of Robinson Crusoe. The book was first published in 1719. Based on true accounts of Alexander Selkirk. Between the years of 1676-1721.
Oil cans did not, usually, get the whole top opened by a can opener. They were opened by a oil can punch that had an attached pour spout, or by a can punch, which was used with a funnel. If you were good you could punch the hole and aim for the engine oil spout. Cans were changed starting in 1985 to plastic bottles.
The oil cans can be opened up by a triangular can opener like you used for evaporated milk. The garage would have a thing that they pushed into the can and it had a spout on it and they would just pour the oil in from the spout to your oil reservoir in the car.
Freaking awesome unit!!! fantastic stamps! love the plaid blanket! Merry happy holidays and best wishes for the new year to you guys, your adorable kids, the fur babies and your lovely mom!!
The homemade looking ornaments were probably made out of “bread dough” a kind of modeling “clay” that was made from mostly flour and something else to bind it…I can’t remember the binder. A varnish of some sort, maybe egg whites? was used to seal it all. Bread Dough modeling clay was very popular in the 80s. There were lots of people making their own and you could buy it from gift shops and such.
Hey the S&H green stamps was once used to order things from their catalog instead of cash. I licked many stamps for my mom ti fill the books. I would say someone would like to get them. The company went out of business.
There are a lot of young women, RU-vidrs, and Tiktokers that wear vintage clothing. These people decorate their whole house in vintage style. I am sure people loved and bought these vintage items. Many of them follow vintage recipes books, and vintage etica oh how to keep their homes clean, cook, and care for their family.
Great unit lots of good things for your auctions hope you and Ashley Grandma Ventures and your two handsome boys have a wonderful Christmas and the new year brings lots of great units that you can show us because we love watching you go through them 💖from Australia 🇦🇺
Homemade is from the 70's also. It is flour, salt and water dough. Bake and painted. Us old folks made them way back in the 1977 at 16 yrs old. I laugh so much when I forget how young you two kids are.
The blue full fashion from macys could sell for $30 or more. One pre-owned one sold for $30. Yours is new in a Macy's box! You might get $40 or more for it on eBay. It's absolutely beautiful!
The head light is for a bicycle. The other part attaches near the tire. As the tire moves the generator spins generating electricity and the head light comes on.
Great unit! The little Peanuts character was Linus. You know the one who played the piano and carried his blanket around. I loved this unit, you found some amazing items. Even the old Macy's boxes have value. Happy selling.
No, its not Linus. The Peanuts doll was Schroeder, the moody genius piano player who always played Beethoven on his piano because Beethoven makes him happy. He's wearing a sweatshirt that says Beethoven on it.
I thought this was a fantastic unit as far as from a viewers point! I kept seeing things I use to one or my family owned, it was very nostalgic! I hope you make a lot of money on this unit. Please be careful and stay safe! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both and you whole family! ❤❤
Can you sometime on many of your video, record on the way to locker, as well as your return home? Not the entire route, cuz we all want to know where you guys live!!! It is nice to see other parts of the country side/city side of where people enjoy living. My two daughter and I would fly out to Vancouver for a couple weeks every Summer when they were in mid elementary up to senior high school. My cousin had a boy and a girl around my two daughters ages. We started out our camping trips by staying out at Mount St. Helen on an island you could only get to it was by boat!!! We had the same campsite each year!! Could see the bottom of the lake and Kord and I guessed it was about 40 ft deep. There was a long rope tied around a big huge tree and the kids took turns all day long by swinging off of it!!! Such an awesome place. This all happened before it ruptured. But we saw a whole lot of Washington, Expo in Vancouver BC, and the Northern part of Oregon. You guys are sooooo lucky to live out there!!! I want to wish your whole family an exciting Christmas celebrating Jesuss birthday with family and friends!! Stay Safe!!! I Love it when the Wife is there help you Wade! I just can't remember her name!! I still like you Grandma Venture!! I really lie both of you!!!! Stay Warm!!!! 🤗🤗❄️☃️🎅🏼♥️⛄️🤓
There used to be a stamp club by mail and would get stamps from around the world they were most likely joined a long time to have that many, i used to be joined when younger long ago lol, got mine still packed no doubt..Nice unit. I return the photos like you will i'm sure the family would want that back.
Hi guys, Absolutely enjoyed this video and the previous one. Looking forward to seeing more and the garage sale. All the best, Stay healthy and warm. Shelly from Israek
You crack me up! Old? 1960 is OOOOLLLDDDD. I was in high school them and am still hanging in there. I went to Princess house parties and my sister in law was in love with the stuff.
Hello family and Mom too! Wade I don't know if anyone has told you, but a lot of those metal boxes look like the actual equipment that is all connected by metal racks and each one is a station or transformer to cable television. I was a dispatcher for cable TV out in California years ago, so I faced a wall full of those!
incense of the desert is actually 'Frankinsence" ....It comes from a tree and is indigenous to the Middle Eastern countries.... It has a very very awesome aroma.... You should try it.... Keep a piece on a porcelain stand and light a tealight under it.... It smells great.....
If you were around in the 70s, you will recognize the items - Realistic, inexpensive Radio Shack receiver, Robert Bruce, low-end brand sold in discount stores, Benrus, the moderately-price watch for the middle class. And if you have been around even longer, you will remember Robinson Crusoe was first published in 1719 , making it unlikely you will find a first edition. Those oil cans might be collectible - motor oil tins are highly sought, but they are looking for really old ones. You don't open them with a can opener, they had spouts with a punch at the bottom end - you could Google it. You jabbed the spout into the can and poured the oil that way.
Charles M Russel is that one print with the horses and cattle. His stuff is very sought after! Make sure you check on that, it could be worth a lot!! This locker so fun to me! All the vintage stuff reminds me of Christmas in a weird way. Perfect timing because it's lifting my spirits! :)
Those oil cans would be open with a can opener that would attach to can; press into top of can and leave a "V" type opening - then you would use a funnel to be sure that oil would go into car without spillage. You would NEVER use a can opener that we see these days that would "circle" the top and open entire top of can. - As for the STAMPS you found - I saw COLLECTOR STAMPS and assessories (books and stuff) - If you sell them in a lot, be sure you have 1. checked out the value of them so you know the VALUE you are "selling". Then there are POSTAGE STAMPS - that you could literally still use to mail a letter etc, - Postage today is ABOUT 60 cents - So you could pick out various postage stamps you have to add up to 60 cents and put them on the envelope and mail it at the Post Office or mailbox. So once again, even with THOSE stamps, add up the VALUE on each of the stamps and know hat you are selling (value) for whatever price you set. "CURRENT DAY" stamps are USEFUL - the older stamps (collectors want) are Valuable for a Collector - but price needs to be checked out through a stamp collector "expert/shop". - Be sure you know what you are selling and what value they hold.
Those stamps were given as points with your grocery. And were redeemable for merchandise. Some stamps were worth more points than others. They were from the 60s.
Watching this video and watching your Wife going crazy with the Disney items, That would be me too lol, I would Frame that Disney Map, she would feel special talking about it cause no one will have it. It’s beautiful keep it girl.
at about 49 minutes in your video the big light you pulled out of the box is a generator for a bicycle, you put the wheel against the tire and as you peddle it generates power to the light, I had one as a child and loved it. put it on your sons bike .
Buying these units seems fun for you and your family. Question? Do you ever think of why a person/family fell upon hardship during a recession? You seem like an individual who may care about people overall. Recession in the caption came across as harsh toward those that lost all that you gloated and gained during a recession.
Wade love watching you and Ashley discover new old things. Only problem for me is your lack of history knowledge. I.e. book with planes had Atomic Bomber and helicopters from Vietnnam. Some pretty historic photos. Merry Christmas to you the kids and Grandma Ventures.
Car guys would love those oil tins and change kit. I love the TV trays. Those brings back memories. Love the new in box clothes/gloves. Is stamp collecting still a thing? Fantastic clean goods in this unit.
I have a Snoopy watch with Woodstock flying around as the second hand. It had a white leather watchband. The background color is red. I got it for Christmas when I was 15, I just turned 62 yesterday and that watch still winds, runs, and keeps time. I would love to have someone who would appreciate it buy it. I have no idea of the value. You guys find the value in amazing things. Any suggestions?
Love your videos and your Mom makes them even better. However would you please please learn another word other than WOW? Do look at past videos and count in just one where there were a lot of good sellable items and count how many times you say wow. I guess this sounds silly, but I would watch and oh so wish I could buy, if only there were only one or two Dow's and then other words like great, beautiful, even whoa! Please?
You guys have a lot of good stuffs for all seasons. Nowadays, you can't find many of such rare items in the market. I love collectibles, limited editions and vintage items. I used to collect stamps when I was young, and many of those stamps now worth hundred to thousand of dollars. Do research before you start auctioning them.
The lighter stuff bear looks like an old Winnie The Pooh. Old slides might be family photos. We have a kerosene heater like that which is newer. They still make them. Stores don't give boxes anymore. High end stores might. Must most all stores used to wrap most clothing you bought in boxes and tissue paper. It was nice. Now everything is put in plastic bags....augh.
Verry funnie lockers. Love old stuff. My relativa live in Portland, Oregon. I have visited them twice time, want to do it more times. Uddevalla, Sweden 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇺🇸🇸🇪🇸🇪
Its called a dynomo, in the box with the lamp. The little wheel goes on to the wheel rim of a bicycle or motorcycle and powers the lamp. I used to have one in the mid 70s. Was the Peanuts character called Lynus who played the piano?
