- 5/24 6:30PMAlex Arnold- Indiana Jones"Alex Arnold is known as “Indie” in the Indiana Jones collectors’ world. He was five years old when his parents introduced him to Indiana Jones, and he was instantly hooked; Indiana Jones was more relatable than superheroes with superpowers. He didn’t start collecting, though, until 2016, when his mother gave him a resin box that held Indiana Jones DVDs, a Blockbuster exclusive. After that, the hunt was on, and he began to collect every Indiana Jones item he could find. Today, his job as an RN can be taxing, and his R and R is turning on one of the movies. And posting Indian Jones related content on social media. His public exposure has led to everything from promoting Indiana Jones products to being invited to movie premieres. Alex will show us the treasures he has collected, and our pop culture expert Joel Magee, a.k.a “America’s Toy Scout", will put a price on the entire haul."
- 5/31 6:30PMScott Forter- Marilyn Monroe"Marilyn Monroe is one of those entertainment legends whose personal life is as iconic as her movie roles. Lifelong fan Scott Fortner has assembled a dazzling collection that illuminates both aspects of the film star’s persona, and shares it all with Lisa Whelchel and Collector’s Call. From the onscreen side, we’ll see the gown she wore (and the fan she wielded) in The Prince and the Showgirl, and her personal script for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. From the private side, we’ll showcase her phone book from 1962; a letter to her former father-in-law on her personal stationary, her custom-made black wool and mink collar suit, and her iconic green Pucci top. Entertainment archivist and screen-worn costume authority Rob Klein appraises the items, and Scott’s entire collection, before offering a tempting trade for one of its treasures."
- 6/7 6:30PMAJ Weir- Sneakers/Sports"Collector AJ Weir deserves top honors when it comes to his incredible sports collection. First, there are the shoes. Jordan's, that is, autographed by MJ himself. But then there are the one-of-one items like the signed drawing of Babe Ruth, the Cubs lineup card from the 2016 World Series, not to mention the jackets Weir makes for the NBA & other sports leagues. Today, Lisa checks out AJ's collection and brings along sneaker expert Errick Spencer, who knows a cool pair of kicks when he sees one. After appraising AJ's collection, Errick will propose a trade that'll have AJ "soul-searching" for answers."
