Titanic Picture Frame, Woolworth Signs, Nazi Spy Toys

Matt thinks he may have snatched up a remnant of American Civil Rights history. Perusing Craig’s List, Matt saw an ad for two “F.W. Woolworth Co.” signs. The seller claims he helped clean out a closed Winston-Salem store in the 1990s. Matt aks Tukufu to find out whether these signs were at the Winston-Salem Woolworth’s lunch counter sit-in.

St. Valentine's Day Massacre, George Washington Miniature, Stalag 17 - S8 E7

Premiered On: 08/07/2010

Family lore says their 12-gauge shotgun played a role in the Chicago St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Is their story true? Then, why is this miniature of George Washington much more than a piece of art? And, a portrait sketched in a World War II prison leads to a moving meeting 65 years later. These three encore segments first aired in 2009.

Hot Town Poster/Face Jug/Lost City of Gold - S8 E8

Premiered On: 08/14/2010

The images and words on a poster suggest a battle is brewing: a clenched fist, police called "pigs." Who made this poster and why? Then, did the artist mean to scare someone with the grimace on a face jug? And what does the inscription on a rock in Phoenix tell us about when Spain first arrived in America?
