‘American Pickers’ Returning To FL; How You Could Be On Show

FLORIDA — As “American Pickers” stars Mike Wolfe and Danielle Colby scour the country for hidden gems this year, they’re planning to return to Florida to film new shows in December – and they want to see your treasured collections.

Since 2010, the hit History Channel documentary series has put a new spin on antique “picking.”

As the show’s website says, “This isn’t your grandmother’s antiquing.”

The show’s stars travel coast to coast to search through private, individual collections in hopes of finding forgotten relics they can restore. They’re willing to go just about anywhere to pick through junkyards, basements, garages and basements – basically, anywhere that isn’t a public space, like flea markets, malls, auction businesses, museums or shops - to find long-forgotten pieces and learn their stories.

“As they hit the back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers are on a mission to recycle and rescue forgotten relics. Along the way, they want to meet characters with remarkable and exceptional items. They hope to give historically significant objects a new lease on life while learning a thing or two about America’s past along the way,” the production team said in a press release, according to the Bradenton Herald.

Floridians interested in being on the show should send their name, phone number, location and a description of their collection with photos to the production team, according to the West Volusia Beacon. The team can be contacted by emailing americanpickers@cineflix.com, on Facebook or by phone at (646) 493-2184.
