(UNDATED) - The History Channel’s American Pickers is headed to Southern Indiana in search of the best antique collections in the area.
The American Pickers, Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz and their team will be in the area in April looking for leads throughout the region, specifically interesting characters with interesting items and lots of them.
American Pickers is a documentary series that explores the fascinating world of antique 'picking' on
History. The hit show follows Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz, two of the most skilled pickers in the business, as they hunt for America's most valuable antiques--from motorcycles, classic cars and bicycles, to one-of-a-kind vintage memorabilia.
As they hit the back roads from coast to coast, Mike and Frank continue their mission to recycle America by rescuing forgotten relics and giving them a new lease on life, while learning a thing or two about American history along the way.
The teams is on the hunt for characters with interesting and unique items. Some of what they look for: vintage bicycles, toys, unusual radios, movie memorabilia, advertising, military items, folk art, pre-50's western gear, early firefighting equipment, vintage musical equipment, automotive items, and clothing. They are always excited to find
things they've never seen before and learn the story behind it.
