Drop in to "Antiques Roadshow," where appraisers from the nation's top auction houses are eyeing a hodgepodge of furnishings hauled in across the country -- from artwork to rugs to tea tables, from a fancy Philadelphia desk to a funky old shaving stand scrounged from a barn and more.

* One Massachusetts man who bought and restored a classic 1740 Boston highboy was pleased to find out it's worth $50,000. But he was less happy to learn it could have commanded $120,000--if he'd left its "ugly" finish intact. * A woman in Connecticut was given a moth-eaten fiddle case by her neighbor. While the dusty 19th-century French violin inside holds very little value, the shredded 1830 bow alone is worth $8,000.

Join antiques expert Chris Jussel and his team of specialists as they examine these objects and many more--in clips from the popular PBS series taped around the country--plus footage never seen on TV.

Customer Reviews

1997 rerun not what advertised!!!! Shame on you PBS!!!
This is a 1997 program, one hour only, with review stating it is a "new 2006 release". There is nothing new. It is not furniture...lots of misc. stuff, artwork, musical instuments, rug etc. Save your money. This is not what is advertised. I am going to see if I can return it. If I could rate it a big fat ZERO...I would!
