Antiques Roadshow is coming to Eugene. They have a lottery for tickets. I applied a few months back and just found out I won 2! My wife is taking a 1st ed. of Alice in Wonderland. I’m taking a Royal Doulton beer pitcher and (one of 6) mug that’s been in my family since before 1899. It’s a classic Royal Doulton design “Dr. Johnson at the Chesire Cheese”. I’ve seen the design on plates but never on a pitcher and mugs before. I’m stoked!
Cool Denny, can you post pics of the items? So I know what to take when I come visit?
My local newspaper wants pics, too, so I’ll post them here after I take them. I’ve actually got another few really nice antique bier steins and mugs, thanks to a generous BIL. I’ll try to get pics of them all and then start a new thread where everybody can post theirs, too.
I can just hear the appraiser now “Very rarely do you see a hippy in this good of shape…” ;D
Holy crap Barry, I snorted hard on that one. ;D
nice denny! look forward to seeing you on tv! don’t forget to give a shout out to all of us the AHA forum!
He’ll be the guy in the Wile E. Coyote tie.
Awesome. Love that show. I typically don’t watch TV but that’s one I will watch.
Good Luck! :)
Veneer! ;D
gawd is that funny
Maybe you should bring the '76 Vee Dub.
They specifically say “No cars”. Plus I’d have to tow it 35 miles into town.
Wish I lived closer denny I would love to take that bus off your hands. I’ve owned a ton of bugs but never a bus, always wanted one. My wife and I stop and look at everyone we see. Got any picts?
This is all I’ve got…you can kinda see the curtains in the back window. When my wife got it, she installed a fold down rear seat bed so she could go camping.
Yeah. “Camping.” Gotcha.
I knew some sick minded person would think that. Should have guessed it would be you!
Which brings us to the bumper sticker thread: If this van’s a rockin’, don’t come a knockin’.
Good luck at the Roadshow!
Please let us know when this particular show airs, I would like to see it! Good luck, and have fun!

If I know, I’ll post. But there’s no guarantee I’ll be on it.
