Personal FX: The Collectibles Show (1994)
One of my favorites, too!
I watched or taped the show every time it was aired. I often heard one of the experts compare glassware to Blenko, which I collect, so I wrote to the director and asked if they had ever done a segment on the company. He answered that the crew was going to film there and told me when it would run. A few weeks afterward, I received a book and a huge piece of the glassware from Richard Blenko at the company! He must have assumed that I was a publicist with some clout, because he asked if I could get the company more media coverage.
The subjects covered on the show were varied enough to suit most collectors, and the experts' opinions seemed valid. I, too, took a second look at many of the things I had inherited or accumulated. That probably helped me do very well on eBay when I started trading there in 1998.
