Antiques Roadshow Season 15 Episode 14 Biloxi, MS - Hour 2

  • May 9, 2011

In this episode of Antiques Roadshow, the team visits Biloxi, Mississippi for the second hour of appraisals. One of the first items to catch the attention of the team is a painting by Mississippi artist Walter Inglis Anderson, which is valued at a surprisingly high amount. Other appraisals include a collection of 19th-century firearms, a colorful if somewhat worn Tiffany lamp, and a fascinating set of architectural drawings from the mid-20th century.

The show also features a number of interesting stories from the owners of these antiques. One woman speaks of inheriting her mother's set of silver, which she fears may have been stolen by her mother's caretaker. Another man shares the history behind his grandfather's pocket watch, which was worn on the Titanic by a crew member who escaped the sinking ship. And a woman with an unusual last name traces her family lineage back to a famous Revolutionary War figure, thanks to a family heirloom.

Throughout the episode, the appraisers provide insights into the history and provenance of these items, offering expert assessments of their value and unique qualities. And as always, the show offers a fascinating glimpse into the art, history, and culture of Mississippi and the American South as a whole.
