S12·E70 Private Collections

Priceless collections. Compilations devoted to with such passion, entire lives have been spent perfecting them. From rescued trash to treasure troves with values known to only the most discerning eye, people collect for many reasons. For some, the thrill is in the find; for others, collecting is an escape from daily life. But all collectors have one thing in common–they love it! This 2-hour special shows what people hoard–from the largest Star Wars collection to the largest private collection of Elvis memorabilia–and the extent to which they go to satisfy their hobby, their passion, their addiction. Among the collections we view are Steven Seagal’s ancient Japanese swords and rare guitars, Arnold Palmer’s golf clubs (over 10,000), and Penny Marshall’s sports memorabilia (she often battles Billy Crystal for the top online bid).
