TV Program: Antiques Roadshow: Mobile, AL (Part 1)

In Mobile, Alabama, "Antiques Roadshow" host Mark Walberg and appraiser David Rago visit the Mobile Museum of Art. The museum has been the temporary home and haven to a collection of George Ohr pottery rescued from the Ohr-O'Keefe Museum of Art in Biloxi, Mississippi, in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. At the Mobile Arthur R. Outlaw Convention Center, there's a whirlwind of great finds, including a lap desk given to Martha Washington's granddaughter by the Marquis de Lafayette; a watch once belonging to baseball great Leroy "Satchel" Paige, bought at a pawnshop for $25; and a strikingly beautiful vase – created by legendary ceramicist George Ohr and brought by one of Ohr's great grandchildren – valued at $10,000 to $15,000.
