Maryland Public Televisions (MPT) popular original series Chesapeake Collectibles, now in its 11th season with a fresh look and a treasure trove of captivating finds, continues in February with four new weekly episodes beginning on Feb. 5. Chesapeake Collectibles episodes are broadcast on MPT-HD and available on the MPT livestream on Mondays at 7:30 p.m. immediately preceding the PBS series Antiques Roadshow. Viewers can also watch full episodes of the series from their TVs or mobile devices on MPTs online video player and the free PBS App. Encore broadcasts of episodes air on Saturdays at 8:30 p.m. on MPT2 and the MPT2 livestream. One of MPTs most successful flagship series, Chesapeake Collectibles showcases items from around the world brought to the show by individuals from across the Chesapeake region. During each episode, individuals have their unique, antique, and collectible possessions evaluated by expert appraisers, who reveal fascinating facts about each items history, provenance, and value. The series 11th season, which premiered in January, features a broad range of treasures, including such highlights as a pair of vintage Air Jordan sneakers, memorabilia related to the sinking of the Titanic, a hat owned by Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, the personal collection of a NASA astronaut, an original Barbie doll, a ceremonial sword from the Pacific Islands, and the first computer manufactured by Apple. Our team of 14 appraisers evaluated more than 3,000 items, each as fascinating as the next, notes series executive producer Patrick Keegan. As producers, our job is to identify which collectibles best lend themselves to a compelling story, and I think our viewers are finding the stories we selected this season are both surprising and delightful. Nearly 1,000 guests attended the Chesapeake Collectibles season 11 taping event, which took place in June 2023 at The Irene and Edward H. Kaplan Production Studio on MPTs Owings Mills campus.
