In 1963, then 8-year-old Nancy entered the Yankees bat boy contest, but as a girl, was ruled ineligible. She later became an honorary "bat girl" and was gifted his Mickey Mantle's baseball bat. @DavidMuir reports on the bat's Antique Roadshow debut. https://t.co/wIixdvC4aq

Very cool!

[Historic Vids @historyinmemes]

In 2009, Gergely Barki, a Hungarian art historian, made a remarkable discovery while watching the movie "Stuart Little" (1999). He noticed a painting titled "Sleeping Lady with Black Vase" by Róbert Berény, which had been missing for 90 years and had been used as a prop in the film. Barki, who had only seen a faded black-and-white photo of the painting from an exhibition in 1928, immediately recognized it as the original artwork.

Realizing the significance of his finding, Barki promptly reached out to the film's production companies, Sony Pictures and Columbia Pictures, via a series of emails. However, it took two years for him to receive a response, which came from a former set designer who had worked on the film.

According to Barki, the set designer informed him that she had acquired the painting from an antiques shop in Pasadena, California, at a bargain price. Unaware of its true value, she had thought its avant-garde elegance would be a perfect fit for the living room set of "Stuart Little."

@EdKrassen Hey @RoadshowPBS - are you able to give any teasers about what was filmed a couple months ago during our Antiques Roadshow appraisal event in Anchorage? I assume it will air in early 2024?

@5horizns @NichoLowry The appraising something haunted I can testify to, but I don’t know about the eating a sandwich part - many of us don’t take a break for lunch and if we do, we leave the tables to do it. 🤓
