Heartfelt Farewell: American Pickers’ Mike Wolfe Breaks Down as He Bids Goodbye to His Beloved Nashville Store
After 14 years, American Pickers star Mike Wolfe is now closing up his Nashville store Antique Archaeology for good.
The History Channel star, 60, officially shut down his shop – which boasts vintage items, collectibles, and home decor selected by Wolfe himself – on Sunday.
But on Saturday Wolfe met with supporters of the shop as they came out to celebrate the store.
Wolfe appeared emotional as he was pictured arriving to the store, dabbing at his eyes, but managed to put a smile on his face once inside the store.
The move is bittersweet for the reality star, who is shutting down the store to return to his hometown of LeClaire, Iowa, where the original Antique Archaeology store is based (and will remain in business).
It comes as Wolfe prepares for a meaningful filming hiatus on American Pickers, the first time in 15 years.
