Hour 1 | Original Air Date: January 9, 2006 (#1001)

ARTICLE: Who Were the Circus "Freaks"?

Collectors now buy and sell photographs of former sideshow "freaks" — but who were these people?

ARTICLE: "So Is It a Buttersworth?" (Actually, No.)

After further research, a handsome marine painting initially attributed to 19th-century artist James E. Buttersworth is found instead to be the work of Antonio Jacobsen.


Hour 2 | Original Air Date: January 16, 2006 (#1002)

Jewelry appraiser Jeanenne Bell explains "seed pearls."

ARTICLE: Lakota Dictionary

This was the first book in Wyoming ... but how do we know?


Hour 3 | Original Air Date: January 23, 2006 (#1003)

ARTICLE: Pietra Dura: "Rock Art"

This stunning work of stone inlay is so intricate, at first the expert mistook it for a painting. More on the history of this impressive technique.

ARTICLE: Translation, Please ...
