Antiques Roadshow Closet Blanket Hit $1.5M

After PBS’s Antiques Roadshow appraised a Navajo blanket at $500,000, a disabled man realized he owned a similar blanket that had been sitting in his closet for 7 years. He took it to an auctioneer after seeing the broadcast. The auction drew intense bidding, and the blanket sold for a final bid of $1.5 million.
