These are quite old.

And I'm not sure how old, so I'm gonna find someone

who can help me figure that out.

Oh.

[suspenseful music]

This looks sort of like those cool antique-y folding chairs.

This is cool.

So...you know what?

Rather than stand out here in the scorching heat

trying to figure this out, I'm gonna have whoever I find

to tell me the value also tell me how this functions.

Is a chair still a chair if no one can sit in it?

I think I need some water.

Another $40 of Christmas.

And we're good.

Now I'm just gonna go see if I can't find

OK.

Well, the bird is a little... you know.

- The bird is a little... you know.

- Yeah.

- It's not that great.

Thankfully, at least you have one bird

that's got the full body.

This one is the "Venus de Bird-o,"

I guess you could call it.

- What did you call it? [laughter]

- Venus de Bird-o.

[laughs]

- That's an eloquent way of saying "broken."

Yeah, we have glue, right?

- Well, yeah, we do. We have glue.

And I'm, you know, not an expert on head, but--

- [laughs]

Well, there goes your social life.

[laughter]

- OK.

So in general, what you've got are

three decorative alabaster

carved interior decoration pieces.

This is a pseudo birdbath.

These were made in miniature form as decorative art,

and these are very beautifully carved.

Carving in stone started at the birth of civilization.

But really, carving in what you've got, which is alabaster,

started in Roman times.

And it was chosen because it's a soft stone.

- OK.

- So it's not marble.

Marble is much harder.

Things are symbolic.

Birds are usually symbolic of peace.

These are doves.

The problem here is that you're supposed to have four birds.

You only have 1 1/2.

This one--let's look at this one.

These two have a sort of a kinship going on.

They might not have even been made at the same time,

but the leaves represent fertility and growth.

And then you have--

on the bottom here, you have a dolphin base.

- Where is there a dolphin?

- These are dolphins.

There's a fish here and a fish here.

- I see. OK.

- And it's marked "Italy." - Oh.

- So this, it looks like a signature, but it's not.

- I didn't even look at the bottom.

- Which helps you to date it.

OK, let's take a look at this one.

Yeah, see.

So this one is--

- Oh, I did see this.

- "Made in Italy,"

which dates this piece to after 1936.

In 1936, they changed the export laws so that

if you were exporting out of France or Italy,

you not only could mark it "Italy,"

but you have to mark it "Made in Italy."

So this one's older.

Now the sordid topic of coin.

We have to determine what these are worth, right?

- Yeah. Yeah. Let's do it.

What do we have here?

A little history about Super Soakers.

They were invented in 1982 by Dr. Lonnie Johnson.

He was a nuclear engineer and NASA scientist.

He invented this in his bathroom.

And yeah, it was originally with, like, PVC pipe.

And then I think he was even using the bottles from, like--

Like a 2-liter bottle?

- Yeah, like a 2-liter soda bottle and connected it to PVC,

and then figured out that if you could

create pressure in it,

you could get that constant flow.

These came out in, like, 1992,

kind of, like, revolutionized the whole water gun game.

- So you've been getting pumped since, like, '92?

Lots of pumps.

I don't know what a campaign is.

you know, like a Civil War,

you're taking a million men camping.

- So when you have a wagon train,

when you have officers that have their own horses

and wagons for all of their tents and equipment,

you have a lot of campaign furniture sold.

So the fun thing about these ones

is you see actual rugs being used...

Americans were making machined rugs even in the 1840s.

that's a very machine-made rug.

It doesn't look too old to me.

It looks 100 years old.

It doesn't look 160 years old to me.

So it might have been replaced.

This is what gets replaced so often
