Host Chris Jussel welcomes viewers to one of his favorite places in the region, the Gamble House. Described as the masterpiece of the Arts and Crafts movement in America, the "Winter Cottage" of two heirs to the Proctor & Gamble fortune is the work of Greene & Greene, two of the greatest residential architects of the twentieth century. Among the fascinating items brought to the Los Angeles Convention Center for appraisal are a rare, clay piglet similar to pieces collected by the British royal family and a miniature portrait valued at $25,000 to $30,000.
