Do you have any antiques you would love to bring to the Antiques Roadshow?!

This was a great list but I wish you would have let the appraisers tell what they were worth and show the reactions on everyone of them.

If any of these were on Pawn Stars they would be like "I can do 2 grand and that is the highest i will go"

[goesbysteve]

Ruined by awful voice over rather than hearing the actual professionals say the value!

[sneakhyperion]

"If you can" do a top ten most disappointing auctions after a good appraisal

Gamestop would be like " I can give you $17 for all of them"

I know this is nitpicking, but as an illustrator myself who studied Norman Rockwell while in art school, he's not a "painter." He's an illustrator whose preferred medium was paint. There's an important difference there since painters are considered fine artists and as illustrators our work serves a very different purpose.

I loved watching antiques roadshow as a kid in the 90s, I still love history and antiques.

I'm such a huge fan of Alexander Calder and when I saw the utterly charming mobile at the top of the show I was wildly intrigued! So glad it got the price it deserved, as several really nice ones have been chopped down quite a bit lower.

I love #10 the basketball card collection. When the appraiser gets emotional and starts to cry, that touches me every time.

[McRotten]

Dude AR is an awesome show.. One of my guilty pleasures

[everyoneash]

Yes, but you forgot the classic antique roadshow episode where the lady with the marble sculpture of a bird being held in a hand was told her sculpture was actually worth two in the bush. It was a stunning moment in history

[shenoymathew]

you forgot about the Rolex which was brought for $300 but sold for 700K
