If you ever get the chance to watch the UK's Antiques Roadshow, I highly recommend it. It's been on for over 42 years, and each week they visit a different venue, ie., great estates, gardens, abbeys, castles, etc. They also have WWI and WWII specials, and from time to time, items from the U.S. show up.
I try to avoid “Pecksniffian Perfidious Albion,” but you do you.
Never seen antique dental tools on there I bet. ;-)
