The very first appraisal is from the banned episode with appraiser George Juno who staged the sword segment with a friend of his playing the role of the sword’s owner. His partner named Pritchett was also a very bad guy. They went on to defraud a bunch of people and take advantage of families, paying them a fraction of the value for artifacts and reselling them for up to 10 times as much. At least one was convicted and sent to prison. I didn’t think this clip still existed. It was only aired once before the fraud was discovered. It really shouldn’t be included with the honest appraisers. It was a sad episode that could have killed the show in 1997, which is when it is from. I thought it was important to mention that.
Thanks . I knew the same. Ugh. Could ruin it for everyone.
You're so full of it
Your face is a banned episode.... Woooohhhhh. Lolololol
@@one8088 What am I full of? Did you not know this story? Look it up if you're not familiar with the details. All I did was state facts. If you have a rebuttal and can describe what I got wrong, let's hear it. It's a well-documented incident.
Now pawn stars has taking that over buy low sell big crooks.)
Before she passed away my grandmother and I used to watch this all the time together.
Noooo!!!!! Ughhh no no no... omg why did I have to see this comment, smfh, I knew I shoulda just went on to the next vid and skip gazing thru comments. I wish i could put into words or describe.. this experience i just had, after reading your comment.. I could write the same thing, because I've also done that! I was justttt having flashbacks of being in my memaws house when i was younger, 15-20 yrs ago, its night time & the happy fuzzy feeling comes to mind, and my belly's full after eating some of her southern-home-cooking for dinner😊 that warm amber colored glow of just the little end-table lamp & TV illuminating the room, such an amazing, beautiful, warm cherished memory i have of us together. The good ol'days.. that don't feel like were so long ago..
🙏🏻😥🤏🏻💝💛 I THANK GOD FOR EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY THAT I SPENT WITH THEM & STILL CAN FOR HOWEVER WHILE LONGER, I'M 31 NOW THEY'RE 71 & 76.. but I live in KY & they live in FL where my whole fam is from & lives, my mom & dad came to KY 13 yrs ago & me & my husband followed behind them about 5 yrs ago, so now my son & daughter 12 & 8 don't get to see their meme & papa like I did growing up, since we live 12 hrs apart & they're getting older so its hard to travel but they just came up to spend 8 days with us about 2 weeks ago.. so its hitting me how much times have changed and we're all getting older.. time doesnt wait for no man, or woman. I wish I had a pause button that's forsure. I'm sorry for the mini bio lol but I just felt like I needed that.. I hope you have as many memories as you can keep of you and your mamaw, of all your family. Life is too short, and tomorrows never promised. 💙❤
I love Antiques Roadshow and have watched since the beginning, but I have to tell you this show has really taken the fun out of yard-sale-ing. Everyone thinks their stuff is worth a fortune, when 99% of it isn't. 🙁
Time to move to a more discerning neighborhood.
I used to watch these when they were new and remember many of these. The Pancho Villa watch woman has always stuck with me. In fact when I think of the show at all she is who I think of. She was hoping for millions. So bitter.
Right? She became more prickly towards him as her vast-but-imaginary inheritance crumbled to dust. There's no way her father didn't have it appraised himself. He only refused to tell anyone how much he paid to spare himself subsequent humiliation. Must've cost him a pretty penny. Meanwhile, any jeweler could've told her that its serial number is the most critical starting point in tracing the provenance. Despite pretending considerable sleuthing was exerted, she ignored taking this most obvious step. She didn't *really* want to know the most likely truth.
Thank you, i really enjoyed seeing this episode from back in the day. Always loved/still love Antiques Roadshow 🙂
ooop! That lady with the Tiffany Vase was PRESSED!! After she got told it was a fake. So pressed! She was panini pressed!
I love watching the fakes get revealed.
Back when people read books and magazines.
That was great, thanks! I remember the episode 'cos of the quarter million-dollar hat-- stuck in the attic.
What I am also looking for is one of the very first episodes where they had an English family on (they gave them the off-set treatment) with a 15th century baby crib with some heraldry carved into the wood. It went for somewhere close to a million.
WOW!! The young man with the Washington letter.....it really blew my mind that his teacher had the gall to argue with his mom about her belief that it wasn't real. She should have just smiled...kept her opinion to herself and allowed the show and tell to go on without a hitch. And she def shouldn't have argued about it with the mother in front of ANY of the kids...especially the young man who was proud to display it to his classmates. I swear...people have no raising anymore.
Fantastic to be able to watch these episodes thank you very much.
Keep them coming.
What an inspiring lady I had no idea antiques could save peoples lives. Awesome.
It sold for 490.000$,It's on another episode also on yt. Put up to auction made that incredible amount of money.
From 1997, this home video is a compilation of appraisers from Season 1 of Antiques Roadshow on PBS, hosted by antiques expert Chris Jussel.👍
I love the twins so much. They just make me smile.😊
Steve is such an amazing human being, 82 years old and still beating working, cooking having fun drinks. I stayed here for a weekend and probably my favorite stay anywhere. A must visit!
William Walker was the brother of Hiram Walker, a Kentucky Liquor distiller. He stayed drunk most of his life and only painted on Sunday after church.
Nonsense. You jealous Cracka
The Tiffany lamp couple . Her eyes went from sparkle to sensing doom , to embarrassment .
2 Experts😂
Her pilot light died beautifully. (One suspects she's unaccustomed to hearing _facts_ she doesn't like.)
Whoa! The appraiser who does the native Canadian Indian attire appeared in an episode of Doctor Who called "Vincent and the Doctor" about 10 years after this AR episode. He plays a tour guide/docent at the Musee d'Orsay who specializes in Van Gogh. It's a very good episode, too. Cheers....
WoW, Bill Nighy worked for the AR? 😮Now I definitely have to watch the whole thing 😊
I dont think so homey
@@one8088 if it isn't him, this guy's a dead ringer. Cheers....
He also played the accordion
The little 'non-Gaugin' was still lovely.
The helmet blew me away - wasn't expecting that at all.
Why do they handle old documents with bare hands and run fingers over the ink?
Because the literal feel of certain artifacts is an added (and, in some cases,) crucial means for establishing authenticity. For example, the Discharge Order may look like it's on paper (as we know it today) but, in fact, would've been made from rag stock or linen in Washington's era. The quickest way of validating this is through touch. That said, I agree also being puzzled why he'd feel doing so again was necessary after its authenticity had been established well before the cameras started rolling. (fwiw, rest assured, the expert wasn't eating pralines prior to touching the Order.)
I’m glad to see the “watermelon” sword. I remember seeing it years ago
Someone above said it was a faked appraisal - don't know if that's true.
It's not the real story but I definitely think it is quite a important thing as u have a lot more of the following that BBC is lying about keep a eye out on news
@@MM-Iconoclast true
That helmet from Milan. Grandpa was in the army in WW2?? Didn’t mention that he came home with a little souvenir??
I, too, found that a bit odd although her surprise Vs. its valuation seemed quite genuine. (An item that extravagantly unique in a typical American household--esp. as possible wartime swag--would've normally been the focus of endless speculation amongst family members and close friends for decades before being abandoned in the attic. I think there's more to this story ...)
I loved it when the painting expert proved the woman "expert" and her husband wrong they new everything but the facts..😅🤣
Did they know how to spell knew?
@@Bobtowngarden auto spell Willy 😅🤣
I'm ashamed to also admit a small but savage delight when the amateur "Fake or Fortune" duo came up short. (You could almost see the dream of that vacation villa in Monaco die behind their eyes.) 😬
Another Great Episode! Thank You!!
No…the Steiff bear with blank button is 1905-1906, not 1910!
What a great episode kinda like an Antique nice 2 see some great appraisers 🤑🤑🤗🥳
Noel Barrett is my favorite appraiser. Always appraising toys, and his manner and voice are that of a big kid in his love of toys. He obviously never grew up, and we're glad he didn't.
We Are History Love Antiquities Thank you for being You ❤Always
Leigh and Leslie were just babies!
That pocket watch is worth a cool mil easily today, just with all the complications on it and the matching fob. I really really want to know its history, even if it doesn't end up linking with Pancho Villa.
Nope.
The appraiser with the kid's George Washington document, (discharge papers), handled that paper rather roughly and without gloves. He should know better.
I just commented the same.
“I estimate the value to be a quarter of a million dollars. Does that come as a surprise?”
Re: the Boston Can. I would have placed. sheet of tin foil in the stopped up sink. Sprinkled baking soda over the foil. Placed the can down and poured piling water over. Works really well without destroying the piece. Soft silver cleaning cloth to follow.
The kid with the letter is Morison Corwaller who is president of the Detroit bed setters association of Detroit mi.
George Selkirk went on to work for the Colonial Insurace company of Baltimore Maraknd as a bar top mascot in the World Series in 1951.
who are you talking to
@@GPSjammer Not to you, obviously. Move along, please ...
Wow awesome antik
7/10. Great questions 👍
The back side of the blade was really the front or musical side of the sword was played with a violin bow to play Dixie when marching in to battle.
wow
I need find a Milanese helmet from the 1500s.
A quarter million. Wow.
See previous comment about the woman who brought in the helmet. Her story is absurd. I don't think the appraiser believed it.
@@piustwelfth yeah, she was very vague. There’s more to the story.
This is so old or maybe it's just me maybe one day they'll have a show that just skips to the numbers and history on everyone's items not just a select few
It isn't a costume it is regalia
Excellent distinction and good catch. 👍
I ❤ the original credits.
I'd Iove to have the banjo wow
Everything you get from the information is a true covering story of what I can tell about the gifts and how they will probably bring down a lot of family secrets of highest profile level
OMG, that so call expert looking at the discharge paper with Washington signature on it removed it from a clear protector and handle it with NO gloves. Oil from hands is very bad for it.
Right?! (I'm half surprised he didn't wad it up and dab his sweaty brow beneath the hot filming lights with it.) 😅
OMG Leila Dunbar was a teenager when she started on the roadshow! I can't believe she was on it from the beginning and doing toys iinstead of sports memorabilia?! I"m kinda shocked! Id think she'd be the person doing the appraisal for that baseball the older gentleman from Brooklyn brought in.
Great episode! Why did document appraiser talking to kid not use gloves?
It was in a plastic sleeve
Only the document was authentic. The plastic sleeve was a modern reproduction.
I wondered that too since he took it out of the plastic and was handling it directly
I commented the same - he ran his bare hands right over the writing as well.
Jus love seen good things happen to pretty much all from collectors to random. )
Thank You
The cup was owned by Irwin Balisardy in the 1700s. He Drank Jewish wine while designing the Brooklyn bridge.
The helmet. Is a helmet worn by the bell ringer in the distinct chapel who would run at the bell with his face and is where the term your face rings a bell started.
Considering that it’s not from the US and was wedged between rafters, I would love to know more.
@@GMAMEC Her story was beyond dubious. (Most likely good ol' gramps looted it from a museum or private collection on his way back from saving the Free World.)
This lady is wonderful
42:17 *Pro Tip: Never wear an 18K gold, diamond festooned, saucepan-sized, pocket watch to 19th-Century Mexico.* 😅
Watching this show helped me survive an abusive marriage. I found a Duncan Phyfe card table with a loose leg. My spouse tried to choke me, and I beat the hell out of him with the table leg. I think I can appraise that Duncan Phyfe table myself: Priceless!
Coolest show!
I bet that guy is ecstatic he didn't have a yard sale
Why no C.C. with this one ?
This piece should be worth maybe 2,000 to 3,000 crap ! The signature . 100.00 bucks
The bear was once owned by Farley Granger of the New York Grangers. Farley sold the bare to fund his move to California to become an Actor.
25 years later quite a few of the appraisers are still doing ARS.
And quite a few still have AIDS
Sweet story by the woman surviving cancer.
11:40 *I'd give my eyeteeth to know what that baseball would fetch all these years later given the absolutely parabolic rise in sports memorabilia prices! (Can anyone out there hazard a credible/data-driven guess?)* 🤯
Snooty old bat with the watch! Lol
Saying “that’s a job for you “ good grief…I loved the look he gave her.
Right? She became more prickly towards him as her vast-but-imaginary inheritance crumbled to dust. There's no way her father didn't have it appraised himself. He only refused to tell anyone how much he paid to spare himself subsequent humiliation. Must've cost him a pretty penny. Meanwhile, any jeweler could've told her that its serial number is the most critical starting point in tracing the provenance. Despite pretending considerable sleuthing was exerted, she ignored taking this most obvious step. She didn't *really* want to know the most likely truth.
59:32 end credits
59:18 ending
Did the owners get their antiques back?
The helmet made of steel and gold chase,that reminds me of the scandal where a plant brought a helmet that was also worth a great deal and found in a rafter…
It was actually the sword in the first appraisal. Both the appraiser and the guest were fraudsters. (Not to say there wasn’t a helmet scandal, though I haven’t heard of it!)
Ohh good night!
This should be worth 15,000 to 20,000 because it is signed cool ! I guess correctly. 15,000
This helmet should be worth , I'm guessing 2,000 to 3,000 what the Heck ! A quarter of a million dollars
someone's DNA is imbedded into the quill work of that moose hide outfit. 👍
"Chief Crazy-Ouch"
Can they fix that in a update? The iron being notched out.
Yep, remember that. Wasn’t he buying from guests?
A hogan!
The stuff animal should be around 2,000 to 3,000 crap! 6,000
hello
Pure silver , I am guessing it will be worth about 5,000 crap 15,000
1:00:08
It's always the best, top of the line, most rare example worth 80 Kabillion dollars! 😄
You obviously missed the *_"Best of"_* in the vid's title.
Let me run my finger over the paint of this Possible Gogan 🤪even if it wasent a Gogan why on Earth would you run your finger over the paint 🙃
Commercials every 3 minutes or so made this unwatchable
That's CZcams. I cannot control that whatsoever and do not make any money from it. Use an ad-blocker. I do.
Too much useless gabbing and not enough appraisals
Welcome to Antiques Roadshow. Please enjoy your stay.
Dude says the carpet is in wonderful condition as he rubs his foot and heels on it. What a jack wagon
Dude that did the black painting looked straight outta 3rd reich. Eyes wide
32:50 That Leedy tenor banjo is only worth $1,200 tops. I been buying and selling banjos for a long time. There is 2 of them on the internet that I seen today 11/02/22 one is listed for $800 and the other is just over $1.100
The appraiser said the story ups the value a little bit. In your trade do you usually find that to be true (i.e., an interesting story upping an instrument's value)? or is that just Antiques Roadshow fluff?
Maybe in 1997 it was worth that amount. Values change frequently
@@sepiaknight47 Stories are nice but 99% of the time just for the seller. Unless some famous Banjo player owned it people just want to pay what a banjo is worth. And most of the time they don`t even what to pay that.!!
The internet has caused prices to drop for many collectibles because people (even experts) discovered that items are not as rare as originally believed.
No…the Steiff bear with blank button is 1905-1906, not 1910!
