It deeply disheartens me that your videos are not reaching close to an audience you guys once had. All of you new content has been absolutely endearing and spectacular. I’m glad to have shared your previous journey and the new one your making now. Keep up the great work guys, it’s inspiringly

The show was cancelled for 2 years, so it’d probably take a while to rebuild. The videos definitely seem to be getting more popular as they go on

Neat to see a video on it! A month or two ago I went to Muscatine, a city in iowa which made pearl buttons in the 1800's and 1900's! At its peak if I recall they made over 2 billion buttons a year there! They had a segment in their museum mentioning these people!

Community, community, community. We have come so tragically close to losing this vital part of our shared existence, through technology, pandemics and a shift in priorities from others to self. Delighted that the Pearlies won't let this happen without a fight!!

Hey Great Big Story! Have you guys ever heard of "Wandergesellen" ? They are a very old kind of Traveling / wandering craftsmen in Germany, they wear a certain uniform, use secret rituals and have special rules they have to follow. could be a very cool video!

I saw pics on Pinterest looking up fashion and came across a bunch of pictures of others then thought let me check RU-vid and see if there is anything on these people. I’m glad I did! She is a lovely great woman. I loved how she had a lil swag in her step as she walked down the streets proudly speaking cheer and giving out hugs! Need more of that here in the states THATS for as they say “bloody” sure! 😊

This makes me think of the Mardi Gras Indians of New Orleans. The style is totally different but making and remaking their suits, with beautiful artistry, caring for their community, coming from a unique society within a society that is of the people. Beautiful in both cases.

I want to tell you a story,it is a story of the most beautiful woman that has ever graced my eyballs. It was not far from Saint Paul’s cathedral,and there was a gathering of Pearly Kings. And there was this very funny and entertaining young pearly,he had us all laughing! But here’s the thing: There was this other,she must surely be the Queen of the Pearly Queens. She was sooo beautiful. I was enchanted. I am of a shy sort of demeanor,so I didn’t approach her,and give her the most well deserved compliment ever. I regret this mistake! I shall,however,always remember this Pearly Queen🥰❤️🥰

How interesting! As an American, I was not familiar with the history of the Pearlies. I'm curious as to how they raise the money for charity. Do they put on shows such as sing and dance, or play instruments to get donations?
