MEET THE FINDER
He isn’t retired from finding. He’s finally free to roam.
Andy Smith has spent years spotting, buying, trading, and selling interesting things. Now he’s got more road in front of him and more time to pull over when something looks promising.
He looks for old advertising, paper, tools, signs, collectibles, unusual household pieces, forgotten objects, and the occasional thing that simply feels too good to leave behind.
“The fun is in noticing what other people overlook.”
THE ROAD IS THE INVENTORY
Every stop has a story.
HOW SMITH & FOUND WORKS
A treasure hunt with a purpose.
Smith & Found isn’t an online antique mall. It’s the home base for Andy’s eye, his road, and the things worth stopping for.

GIVE ANDY A MISSION
What have you been trying to find?
A model number helps. So does a photo. But sometimes “my grandparents had one and I think it was green” is enough to start.
THE RULE
No promises. Just a very good set of eyes on the road.
HAVE SOMETHING INTERESTING?
Show Andy what you’ve got.
Cleaning out a basement, garage, collection, or estate? Send a picture and a little context. Andy may recognize something worth a closer look.
