Ep 17. Vintage Reno

In this episode of Antiques Roadshow season 23, we take a trip to Reno, Nevada where vintage items are the highlights of the show. The beautiful Victorian-style hotel welcomes a plethora of unique and interesting antiques from all over the country. The appraisers are excited to take a closer look at fascinating pieces, and the owners are thrilled to find out if their items are worth more than they expected.

The first item up for appraisal is a beautiful and intricate silver vase that has been in one family's possession for generations. With its delicate engravings and stunning craftsmanship, the vase immediately catches the appraiser's attention. The owner, a woman who inherited the vase from her grandmother, is thrilled to find out its true value. However, the appraiser is surprised to discover that the vase may have been made by a famous silversmith and could be worth far more than the owner ever anticipated.

Next, a man brings in an old painting that he found in his grandfather's attic. The painting features a beautiful landscape with a mysterious story behind it. The owner believes it may be an original piece by a famous artist, but the appraiser is skeptical. After doing some research, the appraiser is able to verify the painting's authenticity and is shocked to find out just how much it may be worth.

Another interesting item up for appraisal is a vintage typewriter. The owner, a collector of vintage typewriters, purchased the item at an estate sale. The appraiser is impressed with the typewriter's mint condition and its unique features. Vintage typewriters have a certain charm to them, and this piece is no exception. The owner is thrilled to find out the typewriter's true value and will cherish it even more knowing just how rare it truly is.

The final item for appraisal is a set of old stamps that have been passed down through one family's collection. The stamps are in impeccable condition and feature a wide variety of interesting designs. The owner, a stamp collector himself, is curious to find out how much his family's collection is worth. The appraiser is impressed with the array of stamps and is able to identify a few rare pieces that could be worth a fortune.
