American
Pickers Looking
for Interesting Characters, Unique Collections
The hosts of American
Pickers, Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz, are longtime "pickers"
or as they call themselves "modern archaeologists". They
drive the back roads of America knocking on doors, digging through
barns and basements, and sifting through junkyards and warehouses.
The dirty, rusty treasures and antiques they pull out of these places
are not just given a new life; they're saved for future generations
to appreciate. Along the way the guys meet the amazing people and
interesting places that make America great.
The Pickers will be coming
to the Ohio area and are looking for people with barns, warehouses,
buildings full of odd, unique, and interesting
collections. They
also love to explore the history of the locations tied to the items.
But know Mike & Frank course we are always looking for great
characters. As they approach a new state, they often reach out to
locals for help in finding these kinds of people within the nooks,
crannies and back roads of this big country. After seeing information
on Facebook, the Darke County Visitors Bureau reached out to them!
Attached is a list of the
items they are currently looking for. Of course the items featured on
the show are not limited to this list. To give an idea of what
they’re currently not looking for: Farming / agriculture items,
tools, glassware, appliances, tractors, crocks, stoves, country
primitives.
That said, if you know of
anyone in the area that has an abundance of the items that are on
their wanted list, or any interesting people with stuff, please
contact Anthony Rodriquez with Cineflix Production Company. They’re
looking to line this people up in the next week or so, the sooner the
better. Mr. Rodriquez can be reached via email
