MARION, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW) — The documentary television series “American Pickers” is returning to the Midwest this fall, searching for hidden antiques and unique private collections across Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan.
Producers for The History Channel hit announced they plan to film episodes throughout the region in October 2026.
The show follows skilled antique “pickers” as they travel back roads across the country to rescue forgotten relics and give historically significant items a new lease on life. Along the way, the hosts aim to meet memorable local characters, learn about America’s past, and discover rare objects they have never seen before.
Producers are actively seeking local leads. Private collectors who have unique items, interesting stories to share, and a willingness to sell are encouraged to reach out to the show.
Strict casting rules apply: The Pickers do not pick stores, flea markets, malls, auction businesses, museums, or any locations open to the public.
Interested individuals can submit their name, phone number, location, and a description of their collection with photos to americanpickers@cineflix.com or by calling (646) 493-2184.
