Antiques Roadshow

INTERVIEWER

Gail, wow, are you breathless?

GUEST

Yeah, it hasn't sunk in that I-- It's not real.

INTERVIEWER

We were with your friend Edie in the green room when you go the news from Leigh, a million dollars for your baseball archive.

APPRAISER ON TV

INTERVIEWER

: For at least one million dollars.

GUEST ON TV

INTERVIEWER

: Are you serious?

GUEST 2

One million? Oh!

INTERVIEWER

Edie was pretty excited, but I heard you say to Lee afterwards, that you weren't quite sure what number she had given you.

GUEST

Yeah, I mean, I really couldn't believe that it could be worth that much. It was just sitting in here, in a desk drawer, and I ran across it one day, and decided I'd like to have it, not realizing at all what it was worth. That was when I was much younger.

INTERVIEWER

Were you a baseball fan before the ROADSHOW today?

GUEST

Oh, for sure. Red Sox fan, grew up outside of Boston.

INTERVIEWER

And to think you almost sold this collection years ago, tell us--

GUEST

Well, I didn't 'cause I did wanna keep it in the family, and someone had told me that hey, it's probably worth more than he's offering.

INTERVIEWER

And what do you think you'll do with these when you get home?

GUEST

I don't know, I mean, I'm hoping they'll stay in the family, although it's gonna be tough deciding how to do that.
