Antique Stores

Our second day in Nashville was spent antiquing in general. Our first stop was at the Nashville store of the American Pickers. We plugged the address into the GPS and Shirley headed us in the right direction. But as we were driving down next to the highway, it appeared to me that the road ended before we would get to our turn, so I turned early. We wound around a bit, but she finally got us there. The store was located in the old Marathon Automobile Factory.

I really wasn't sure of what to expect so my my overall impression was mixed. The store was tiny (and very crowded). They had some large ticket items which were for sale, and others which were not - mostly motorcycle related (which was understandable). Most of their sales appeared to come from souvenir shirts, hats, and other miscellaneous items.
