I
WANT TO BE AN ANTIQUE EXPERT!
|
Outline
Ten smallish strange, unidentifiable antique objects
dating between 1780 - 1920 and valued between £30.00 - £400.00 are
placed on a large table (or if over dinner on the dining tables).
Each individual or team must first choose a team name and of course
points are awarded for creativity and then decipher the following
from each object:
• What is it?
• What is the value?
• How old is it? |
 |
|
To make it slightly
easier our host is on hand to give clues for all the objects e.g.
'this object was used in the bathroom mainly by men'. After the
selection of curios are identified and answer cards are collected,
our antiques host will then reveal the truth about the antiques
and who is the prize winning individual or team in a short, fun
and witty finale speech.
