A true adventure story and the go-to guide for "picking" American treasures from anyone's backyard, straight from the stars of History's American Pickers In these pages, professional treasure hunters Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz chronicle their road trips across the American countryside in search of "rusty gold" to buy and sell among the picking world's one-of-a-kind characters. Whether you are a fan of the show or just like finding hidden riches, you will love seeing what Wolfe and Fritz dig up and enjoy meeting the devoted collectors, extreme stockpilers, and elite dealers who they encounter along the way. Wolfe and Fritz do not deal in fine antiques. Their secondhand treasures are of the down-and-dirty and sometimes even bizarre variety, from old bicycles and vintage tools, to sun-bleached cars and handmade furniture, retired carnival games and unusual taxidermy. Assisted by Danielle Colby, who helps out at Antique Archaeology, Wolfe and Fritz buy on the cheap and then sell to dealers, art directors, interior designers, or anyone looking for a little bit of authentic Americana. The three now share their secrets to finding hidden gems, offering helpful hints that will show what average Americans can do to find the treasures that await them. From American Pickers Guide to Picking: Junk is Beautiful When we knock on a door, 90 percent of the time the things we find are junk. But we don't care about the odds; a picker never turns down an opportunity, no matter where it is. We've picked pickup trucks. We've picked flat beds. We've picked dumpsters. We even picked a Mercury Sable. We're looking for the unusual, the impossible, the funky, the different, the bizarre-things we have never seen before. And we'll go anywhere we have to go to find it. No location is off-limits to a hard-core picker. And there's plenty of things to be found at antique stores, thrift and consignment shops, flea markets, estate sales, and swap meets, and a lot of the tips in this book apply to finding treasures at these joints. But that's not really the kind of picking we do anymore. We look outside the box to find our junk-a word we use almost like a term of endearment: to us: junk is beautiful.Binding Type: Hardcover

Airy, 100 % cotton, crochet, button-down shirt
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe Knit, Size: XX-Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe Knit
This feels super soft and airy. Even though it’s made of 100% cotton, it doesn’t feel heavy at all. I love the contrast between the dark blue and white. The fit is slightly boxy, and it doesn’t wrinkle whatsoever. It’s absolutely worth the price. I can’t get over how good-quality, versatile, lightweight, and soft this shirt is. I highly recommend it as a fun layering piece or a stand‑out top.

The Materials Are Very Soft And Durable
Size: Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe Knit
It is ideal for warm weather or casual nights out because of its relaxed fit, which is comfortable without appearing overly baggy, and the soft, light knit material. The button-down style preserves the relaxed vacation vibe while giving it a polished, clean appearance. It looks great with both jeans and shorts.
The fabric's ability to breathe throughout the day was one of my favorite things. The short sleeves make it perfect for everyday casual wear, cookouts, and vacations. It is comfortable enough to wear for hours without feeling heavy or stiff. For the price range, the buttons and stitching appear to be well-made as well. Without exerting too much effort, the shirt's fashionable appearance draws praise.
The fit can run a little larger depending on your typical size choice, which is the only reason I am not giving it a perfect five stars. Sizing down can be beneficial if you prefer a more fitted appearance. Apart from that, it is a fantastic, adaptable shirt that blends ease of care, comfort, and style. A great complement to a casual summer outfit, without a doubt.

Not my cup of tea.
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
The sweater seemed to be well made and fit me well. The color and style were nice and it's a comfortable material, but it's just not my style. The weave is so very open, it feels like I'm wearing an afghan from the back of the sofa. That kind of defeats the purpose of a sweater for me.

Men's relaxed fit cardigan
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe Knit, Size: XX-Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe Knit
This Amazon Essentialsl men's relaxed fit cardigan is a stylish option for men. The cardigan is short sleeved and relaxed in fit. I ordered an XXL for my huband, which is his normal size, and it fits him well and is relaxed through the shoulders and body of the cardigan. The one we chose is blue and white striped with a white border on the sleeves and hem and a white collar. It's 100% cotton and is soft to the touch. It looks really nice on my husband, and he says it feels comfortable to wear. The weight is somewhat heavy, so I think for him, he will mostly wear it when it's a bit cooler. It gets very hot here in summer, but this will be nice when the weather cools off. He often wears short sleeves in colder months, too. This cardigan can be machine washed in cold, but it should be dried flat (the way you generally dry sweaters so they'll keep their shape). It's a very nice looking cardigan, and it looks great on my husband. I'm very pleased with the style and the quality.

Unbeatable Price! Great Quality!
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Green Stripe Knit, Size: Medium, Color: Dark Green Stripe Knit
I was very impressed with the softness and quality of this shirt. I am 6'1 and 195 lbs. and the medium shirt was a perfect fit. I will agree that the size is true to fit. The only thing I didn't like was the length. The length is short, so it comes to just to the top of my waist when wearing, however, that is the style of this cardigan. A longer length is my personal preference since I am taller. Also, with this being cotton, I would not recommend putting this garment in the dryer as it will likely shrink. The color (I got green) is just as pictured and the green and navy color mix blend well together. Although knitted, you do not see through the shirt, so an undershirt is not required. The price tag is unbeatable as you will not find a knitted cardigan anywhere else at this low price. Overall, I think it is a great buy, and I would highly recommend it.
