If you've got a barn full of junk, or an odd heirloom in your basement, or a forgotten relic in your garage, the popular History Channel TV show "American Pickers" would like to know about it.
The show is coming back this June to Wisconsin. Producers are looking for "historically significant or rare items" with an interesting story behind them, the showrunners said in an email.
The pickers are seeking and willing to buy items in private collections. They don't visit any stores open to the public like flea markets, malls or stores.
Since 2010, the History Channel show has followed experienced "pickers," or antique hunters, as they search for rare and interesting items across the country.
The pickers in the show are always looking to discover something they’ve never seen before, the showrunners said.
In the past, "American Pickers" has filmed in central Wisconsin and Milwaukee, among other places in the Dairy State. They also plan to search for leads in Minnesota.
If you or someone you know has a unique item and is ready to sell, send your name, phone number, location, and description of the collection with photos to americanpickers@cineflix.com, call 646-493-2184, or reach out on Facebook Messenger @GotAPick.
