Do you know any collectors in the greater Lewiston-Aburn area? The hit TV show American Pickers has asked us to reach out to our readers and spread the word that they are looking for collectors.

Mike Wolfe, Frank Fritz and their team are excited to return to Maine! They plan to film episodes of the hit series American Pickers throughout the area at the middle to end of July 2020.

They understand that with the proliferation of COVID-19, everyone is facing very uncertain times, and everything is changing daily. The staff at American Pickers is taking this pandemic very seriously and will be adjusting their schedule accordingly for the safety of those who appear on the show and their crew. However, they are excited to continue to reach the many collectors in the area to discuss their years of picking!

American Pickers is a documentary series that explores the fascinating world of antique “picking” on History. The hit show follows Mike and Frank, two of the most skilled pickers in the business, as they hunt for America’s most valuable antiques. They are always excited to find sizeable, unique collections and learn the interesting stories behind them. 

As they hit the back roads from coast to coast, Mike and Frank are on a mission to recycle and rescue forgotten relics. Along the way, the Pickers want to meet characters with remarkable and exceptional items. The pair hopes to give historically significant objects a new lease on life, while learning a thing or two about America’s past along the way. Mike and Frank have seen a lot of rusty gold over the years and are always looking to discover something they’ve never seen before. They are ready to find extraordinary items and hear fascinating tales about them. American Pickers is looking for leads and would love to explore your hidden treasure. If you or someone you know has a large, private collection or accumulation of antiques that the Pickers can spend the better part of the day looking through, send them your name, phone number, location and description of the collection with photos to americanpickers@cineflix.com or call 855-OLD-RUST.
