The American Pickers are excited to return to Illinois. They plan to film episodes of The History Channel hit television series throughout the area in July 2023.

American Pickers is a documentary series that explores the fascinating world of antique “picking” on The History Channel. The hit show follows skilled pickers in the business, as they hunt for America’s most valuable antiques.

They are always excited to find historically significant or rare items, in addition to unforgettable characters and their collections.

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 amazing stories and fun items. They hope to give historically-significant objects a new lease on life while learning a thing or two about America’s past. The Pickers have seen a lot of rusty gold over the years. The Pickers are always looking to discover something they’ve never seen before. They are ready to find extraordinary items and hear fascinating tales about them.

We at American Pickers continue to take the pandemic very seriously. They will be following all guidelines and protocols for safe filming outlined by the state and CDC. Nevertheless, we are excited to continue reaching the many collectors in the area to discuss their years of picking. We are also eager to hear their memorable stories.

The American Pickers TV show is looking for leads and would love to explore your hidden treasure. If you or someone you know has a unique item, a story to tell, and is ready to sell…we would love to hear from you! Please note, the Pickers do not pick stores, flea markets, malls, auction businesses, museums, or anything open to the public. If interested, please send us your name, phone number, location, and description of the collection with photos to [email protected], by calling (646) 493-2184, or on Facebook.
