Antiques Roadshow find?
 
There was a brief account on one of the ESPN cable sports channels about an elderly woman who brought a collection of very old baseball cards to the PBS program "Antiques Roadshow." I only caught the camera shot of the cards for about a second, so could not identify them. The ESPN guys claimed that the roadshow appraiser estimated their value at a minimum of a million dollars. The woman was, of course, flabbergasted, probably thinking they were worth a few hundred at most. Anyone out there catch the PBS show, and can identify the cards, and maybe whether the appraiser was on or off target?

There is a whole thread on the prewar side. A lot more expertise over there on them.

Thanks, Drew. I wasn't sure how old the cards were, as I only got a brief and blurry glimpse.
