The wildly popular PBS program “Antiques Roadshow” airs the second of three Mississippi Coast shows this evening at 7 on Mississippi Public Broadcasting and on PBS stations across the country.
Tonight’s program, gleaned from the “Roadshow” taping at the Coast Coliseum in Biloxi months ago, will include a 1943 National League autographed baseball; a sword used in the Revolutionary War; and an 1811 silk-on-silk embroidery that’s valued as much as $50,000. Also: vintage space toys.
If you were not among the 10 million weekly viewers who saw last week’s initial program from Biloxi and the Gulf Coast, you can see it online now. Just click here.
Some Light(house) viewing: Veteran Mississippi broadcaster Walt Grayson focused his “Look Around Mississippi” camera on the Biloxi Lighthouse in a news story that aired last week on Jackson and Biloxi TV stations.
