My husband treats yard sells like a military task. He sorts by richest neighbor, geographic proximity, time, whether they had been open the day before and finally puts it all in gps. Glad he uses his sills for good, not evil/
I left a long comment on someone elses comment about the photography equipment from the 1800s-1900.. that was the most fun find!! Can't wait to hear what you learn about them. I'm picturing my French great grandfather using them..he was one of the 1st commercial photographers in LA at the turn of the century, my dad told me. We have tons of pictures of the family too because of him. But he took pictures of actors back then and i found one on sheet music that was transferred to glass. Hard to explain but knowing he took the pic of an actress.. seeing his name was just goose bumps! And I found one of a little girl's portrait signed in pencil at a junky antique store years ago! ❤ I swear he must have guided me back to the dusty corner of that store!! Anyways.. thx you guys for more memories! Have a great day off! ❤
To clean baskets put them on the driveway on a hot, sunny day and spray off with water. Leave them in the sun to dry. The trick is to avoid getting them too wet or wetting them repeatedly. Saw that Martha Stewart 30 yrs ago
I remember when ppl ( in the olden days) would take pics and they would go under a black cloth then after, they took the picture they would pull out a square wooden thing that looked like what you found.
Oh Canadian Girl don't feel old. I graduated in 1967! Do the math! I'm the one who should feel old but I don't. What I have not figured out is how the heck did I get here so fast 🤪. Have a great week! Colette
The wood photo pieces are vintage film holders. They hold one piece of flat film on each side and fit into an 8x10” view camera, also made of wood. This is the type of camera that Ansel Adams used in Yosemite in the 1920s on. I don’t think they were used for tin types.. In the 1970s and later there were metal film holders for portable X-ray films in hospitals, before everything changed to film less digital photography. Great find! Congratulations on your good instincts!
That whisky bottle (with the quail that you put back) is worth a good amount to resell. It would even be cute for the Fall to decorate with. I would go back and get it. The vintage bottle is ok to resell 😃 yall are so cute together! God bless
*ONE OF YOUR ●BEST HAULS EVER● Jami & Zeb‼️🙉🤯🙊💣💥💨💯* *The VINTAGE PRINTS, the OLD GOLD FRAMES WITH BEVELED MIRRORS‼️ The MIRRORED BUTTERFLY PRINTS, the vintage KODAK CAMERA FILM PLATE HOLDERS, the CARVED WOODEN WALL FLORAL BASKET - OMIGOSH - I could go ON AND ON‼️🙊🙉🤯👌👍🏼💕💜🥰😉 And then top it off with TACOS⁉️ 🌮😋😜 PRICELESS‼️*
Film holders for 8x10 field/view camera. Double sided, so a sheet of film on each side. Still used today by photographers. Maybe from late 1800s to early 1900s. Those black inserts are fragile, and my photographer husband advised handling them carefully. Clean carefully with mild soap & water. Don’t use wax on any parts. Viewfinder magazine might be a sale source. There are still many young and old photographers interested in creating black-and-white images. Maybe an Etsy or eBay buyer would buy them from you at the right price. Either way, great find. Enjoyed the video!
Yes!! My great grandfather was a commercial photographer at the turn of the century in LA and I think that's his era..wow what a find! ❤❤ no idea what the market is for them..but you see them in old westerns. He was in the California well before 1900 because I know my grandma graduated high school in LA in 1906. I'm excited to hear where you end up selling them! Awesome find!!
I have 2 of the same half side tables... They came from my Gradma before she passed. I remember as a little girl admiring the both of them. I always thought someone had cut her small table in half. I would love to know what neat things that you may have found out on them. Love watching all of your DIYS
I have never seen those photography plates ever and I've been thrifting and antiquing over 30 years. They are used on those big cameras like you see on the Waltons when they would go and have their picture taken. Great find. I would have to keep one for myself.
The open boxes are bee hive honey supers. They pile on top of each other and hold 8 frames of foundation (wax/comb). We raise bees at our flower farm. They are normally around $20/each. So great deal
More advice from my photographer, husband… He says, don’t worry about cleaning them, as it would be best to let whoever might buy them inspect and clean them. Also, he said the black inserts can crack very easily if not handled carefully. I know I mentioned they’re fragile, but he wanted to emphasize that point. And no, he doesn’t want to buy them as he doesn’t have that particular view camera. But he said there are a lot of people out there who would be interested but maybe not at a high price. certainly higher than at two dollars!
This time I love the prints that are in most of the picture frames…..Hope you don’t change out too many. You really scored this week…also love the gold frames with mirrors in them…and the mirrored frames with the butterflies…
Love your thrifting, always! Great finds. You are my fav place to go to. Now, I just need to get brave enough to buy something! Have a wonderful week.😊 Colette
What a great haul!! So many beautiful prints and cool frames! Good eye on the photography doodads! Imagine being the donator watching your video and finding out what they gave up! I’d love to hear more about the copper postcards too. They’re pretty cool.
Such fun finds!!! I am so excited for garage sale weather!!! I know you guys usually have to divide and conquer for your videos but it was also fun watching you thrift together when Jami's camera died 🙂Thank you for another fun video and I hope you are enjoying your Memorial weekend!!!
Jamie, the mirror frame pictures with the butterflies, I have some. Mine have seashells. I bought them several years ago from Ballard. The small ones like yours were $300 new. I did see 👀 some stuff I would like to buy on Saturday!!
The big framed painting of the woman in the garden- field was featured in Ensign about 1990's. I loved it, took the picture, had it matted & frame. Still on my bedroom wall.
Y’all are reaching up today, I mean the other day.😊 I live in south Louisiana and soooo wish I was closer! Y’all have such great thrifting stores out in Utah.

Such fantastic hauls for one day, oh my gosh! I would love to go thrifting with you guys, but this is one way to do that I guess?! You guys did so well! Congrats on all your good finds and hopefully you will sell it all and have money to continue your good work! ❤❤❤❤❤ Oh, and I'm thinking that whiskey bottle would be a great sell for you guys, someone would love to have it who collects them. Yeah, you obviously can't bottle and sell your own whiskey in them, lol 😜
My mums friend worked her full life with photo developing she would know exactly what they are . Look forward finding out what you do with them etc xxx
I love all the things you buy, i would pick them too. Problem is i probably would have bought even more and then i lack the vision and ability to change things!! Oh how i struggle!! LOL 😂
Are the boxes without bottoms soap molds? They look like what I’ve seen some soap makers on RU-vid using. I just love seeing y’all’s videos. You always seem to have fun together, that’s nice to see! ❤
I’m wondering if the mercury glass frames might have older prints under the ones currently in there, they are pretty too but often those frames had art deco prints originally. Any thing related to vintage film and cameras can be worth money good score on the film slides
When you undersell your items I buy, because I only purchase. It’s not about a profit for me. It’s difficult to find items because of the enormous growth of resellers.
Suggestion, I saw on another channel where someone uses essential oil or dawn dish soap on the goodwill price tages to get them off easy. You put it on tags, let sit a while then take tags off. Repeat as needed.
