A collection of the timeless, the priceless and the unforgettable,
this beautiful compendium accompanies the beloved BBC One TV
series. Antiques Roadshow has graced our screens for forty years
and has become one of the nation's most beloved television
programmes and a national institution. It has featured thousands of
unique stories over the years, and introduced many incredible
characters and unforgettable moments. In this anniversary
celebration, Paul Atterbury and Marc Allum look back at the
quintessential moments from the show's illustrious history,
providing a look at the history behind the very best and most
intriguing objects that have appeared on the show. Antiques
Roadshow: 40 Years of Great Finds reveals the astonishing stories
behind findings such as the discovery of the Lalique vase which had
been bought for a pound at a car boot sale and left in the loft,
only to be valued and sold for GBP25,000; the twenty-three original
Beatrix Potter drawings; a brooch designed by the great Victorian
architect William Burges; a poignant letter written by a doomed
passenger on the Titanic, and legendary 1970s glam rocker Marc
Bolan's distinctive Gibson Flying V guitar. Beautifully
illustrated, and featuring a wealth of artifacts from the show,
this is a truly revealing book, unearthing moments from history
through each of the extraordinary objects discovered on the
programme.
