- 11/3 6:30PMKatherine McCabe- The Monkees"Katherine caught Monkee Mania as a young child watching reruns of The Monkees on television. Now, she shares her collection of memorabilia dedicated to The Monkees with rare toys, signed 8-track tapes, and Peter Tork’s personal piano. With creativity and commitment, she even landed not one, but three rare sweat towels used by Micky Dolenz. Joining our ultra-fan is Charles Rosenay, a producer of Beatles and Monkees conventions. Charles brings a rare piece of memorabilia to trade, but Katherine will have to let go of a shirt personally owned by one of the Monkees if she wants to make the swap. "
- 11/10 6:30PMMeet Eric Pfeifer"After his first viewing as a child, Eric Pfeifer began collecting everything related to Star Wars. Now his collection is so vast – covering both floors of his house as well as its basement – that he holds regular “Pfeifer-Cons,” drawing people from near and far to come and view it. Eric shares with Lisa some of the highlights of his collection, including a braid of Chewbacca’s hair from the original movie; a swatch from Jabba the Hutt’s sail barge in Return Of The Jedi; 1980s Han Solo and Lando Calrissian action figures; and a billboard too massive to display anywhere but in Eric’s backyard. Eric is joined by his mom, Connie, who has nurtured his collection over the years. We’ve also brought along Jimmy Mac, a podcaster and Star Wars collector who will appraise Eric’s collection – and who’s managed to find a rare Star Wars item Eric doesn’t have, in hopes of making a trade with him."
- 11/17 6:30PMAirline Memorabilia- Anthony Toth"Anthony Toth fell in love with aviation as a little kid and his passion for all things "in flight" has only soared higher and higher over the years. Restoring an actual 747, Anthony has made it his lifelong mission to collect airline memorabilia- mostly from the 70's and 80's and includes uniforms, meal trays and even seats. Joining Lisa & Anthony today is our expert Marshall, an airline historian who will appraise Anthony's astronomical collection, and then try enticing him to make a trade, Marshall's offering our collector some vintage aviation artwork, but will the price be too sky-high for Anthony to make a deal?"
