GUEST: This is a Jacob Glushakow
uh, oil on canvas painting,

he's a local Baltimorean
um, artist.
01:44.000 --> 01:47.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%

in 2000 but I believe he also

painted for about six decades.

a couple years ago, um,
01:58.833 --> 02:03.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%

uh, my eyes drew right to it.
02:03.433 --> 02:06.933 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Um, and I felt some sort of
connection as my family grew up
02:07.066 --> 02:09.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:50%
in Baltimore and I'm
sure went to Hollins Market.

02:32.166 --> 02:34.733 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:40%
and that's why I
was so excited about it.
02:34.866 --> 02:37.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:60%
Years ago, when I worked
with another auction house,
02:38.033 --> 02:42.833 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
we sold his estate and they
were many, many paintings.
02:43.233 --> 02:46.966 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
He's a wonderful guy I mean
he's, it, he's an interesting,
02:47.100 --> 02:48.700 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:15%
was an
interesting character too.
02:48.833 --> 02:51.966 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
Born in 1914 on the ship.
02:52.100 --> 02:55.666 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
There was a Baltimore to
Bremen steam ship line,
02:55.800 --> 02:58.900 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
that's why Baltimore has such
a large German population.
02:59.033 --> 03:00.166 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
GUEST: Mm-hm.
03:00.300 --> 03:02.566 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
P. RAAB: Irish and German, they
came down from Philadelphia
03:02.700 --> 03:06.166 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
of course, and after the yellow
fever epidemic of 1793,
03:06.300 --> 03:07.466 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
but also there was this
03:07.600 --> 03:09.433 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
Baltimore to Bremen
steam ship line
03:09.566 --> 03:12.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:60%
which just brought tons;
Baltimore is a port of entry,
03:12.433 --> 03:15.466 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
so tons of Germans came in,
he was one of them,
03:15.600 --> 03:17.233 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
he was born on the
boat, on the ship,
03:17.366 --> 03:20.066 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
on the way over and
he was one of 11 children.
03:20.233 --> 03:21.300 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
GUEST: Wow.
03:21.433 --> 03:23.466 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
P. RAAB: So, he was
from a big family.
03:23.600 --> 03:29.200 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
Um, he has a wonderful uh,
eye, a wonderful sense, uh,
03:29.333 --> 03:33.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
he's a keen observer of
Baltimore life out in the,
03:33.700 --> 03:38.366 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
in the, I guess second and
third quarter of the ninth,
03:38.500 --> 03:40.000 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
of the 20th century.
03:40.133 --> 03:43.066 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
If you look at the painting
you can see there's the
03:43.200 --> 03:45.966 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:55%
cabbage here, there's,
there's, there's bits and
03:46.100 --> 03:48.233 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
pieces, there's
trash right there.
03:48.366 --> 03:51.133 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
This you know is produce right
here, someone is looking in a
03:51.266 --> 03:54.166 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
big bin there, I don't know
if it's garbage or not, but
03:54.300 --> 03:57.300 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
I mean he's really picking up,
you know, here's a
03:57.433 --> 03:59.633 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
mother and child coming
in the, the butcher,
03:59.766 --> 04:01.566 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
or whatever the store owner is
04:01.700 --> 04:03.900 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
and the stalls on either side,
04:04.033 --> 04:06.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
I mean it's just a wonderful,
it's almost photographic
04:06.600 --> 04:08.333 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
in the way that it depicts,
04:08.466 --> 04:11.766 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
that he depicts the scene
of Baltimore that were,
04:11.900 --> 04:14.200 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
was so endemic to
Baltimore at that time.
04:14.333 --> 04:17.166 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:62.5%
The different markets you
know, uh, Hollins and, and,
04:17.300 --> 04:20.300 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
one in, uh south Baltimore,
I forget the name of it,
04:20.433 --> 04:23.066 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
but anyway the different
markets that were uh,
04:23.200 --> 04:24.600 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
in Baltimore at the time.
04:24.733 --> 04:27.533 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
And I guess the, the, similar,
similar to the way people
04:27.666 --> 04:29.300 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:45%
bought food in all
the cities you know.
04:29.433 --> 04:30.566 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
GUEST: Mm-hm.
04:30.700 --> 04:34.066 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
P. RAAB: So, it's, it's a
real slice of Baltimore,
04:34.200 --> 04:38.733 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
the architecture here, the uh,
old market place right there,
04:38.866 --> 04:42.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
I mean he's really captured;
this is a Coca-Cola sign
04:42.500 --> 04:44.066 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I think right here with the red.
04:44.200 --> 04:45.366 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
GUEST: I can tell.
04:45.500 --> 04:47.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:67.5%
P. RAAB: So, he's, he's, he
really has an eye for detail,
04:47.433 --> 04:49.100 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
you know, which is exciting.
04:49.233 --> 04:52.166 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
The whole um, I don't know,
the whole scene is charming,
04:52.300 --> 04:54.133 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
all of his work was charming.
04:54.266 --> 04:57.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:55%
It, a lot of his other
artwork he would show the
04:57.266 --> 05:00.300 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
destruction of Baltimore
in the inner city,
05:00.433 --> 05:02.733 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:45%
the, the buildings
that were falling down,
05:02.866 --> 05:05.666 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
a lot of them were of
the ruins of Baltimore
05:05.800 --> 05:08.833 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
before inner harbor came,
I guess in the early '60s
05:08.966 --> 05:11.400 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:32.5%
and bulldozed
all that area down.
05:11.533 --> 05:12.700 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
GUEST: Mm-hm.
05:12.833 --> 05:15.300 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
P. RAAB: So, to show, and this
is still extant of course,
05:15.433 --> 05:18.066 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
this is Hollins Market as you
said before, so this is still
05:18.200 --> 05:21.866 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
extant this, this, uh part of
town, so this is probably a
05:22.000 --> 05:25.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
scene that is uh,
probably still there today.
05:25.366 --> 05:27.866 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:50%
Anyway, have you had
anyone give you any ideas
05:28.000 --> 05:29.133 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
of value on this?
05:29.266 --> 05:30.500 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
GUEST: No, not, not at all.
05:30.633 --> 05:32.733 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
P. RAAB: Not at all.
GUEST: Not at all.
05:32.866 --> 05:36.366 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
P. RAAB: At auction what we
found is that his paintings,
05:36.500 --> 05:39.733 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
this kind of large painting,
a nice painting and framed,
05:39.866 --> 05:44.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:55%
were selling for about
$1,000 to $1500 each painting
05:44.800 --> 05:48.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
and so I think that that
uh, idea of value maybe,
05:48.833 --> 05:51.066 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
if you wanted to insure it,
05:51.200 --> 05:55.266 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
I would double that, say 25,
$3000 something like that.
05:55.500 --> 05:59.700 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
If you went to sell it you could
expect $1,000 to $1500...
05:59.833 --> 06:00.733 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
GUEST: Wonderful.

06:03.300 --> 06:04.833 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%

it go because it's really
06:04.966 --> 06:05.966 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%

06:26.633 --> 06:28.200 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
in for us to take a look at?
06:28.333 --> 06:30.066 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:57.5%
GUEST: Well, thank you,
I brought a book by
06:30.200 --> 06:33.433 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:65%
Mr. Whitney Young that was
presented to my father
06:33.566 --> 06:35.866 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60%
when he was working with
The United Way of America
06:36.000 --> 06:37.966 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
in New York City.
06:38.100 --> 06:42.633 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:62.5%
GENICE: And have you ever
had this book assessed before?
06:42.766 --> 06:44.700 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
GUEST: No, I, this
is the first time.
06:44.833 --> 06:47.200 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
I found it when I was going
through my father's
06:47.333 --> 06:49.000 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
personal archives.
06:49.133 --> 06:51.333 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:62.5%
GENICE: Well I think it's
great that you took the time
06:51.466 --> 06:55.866 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
to carefully go through your
father's personal effects,
06:56.000 --> 06:58.933 align:start position:10% line:10% size:77.5%
I know that a lot of people are
doing that right now and
06:59.066 --> 07:01.866 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
a lot of times things like this
are thrown out because people
07:02.000 --> 07:05.066 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
are in a hurry, so I'm glad that
you're taking the time and
07:05.200 --> 07:08.000 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
were able to bring it on the
show and share with us,
07:08.133 --> 07:10.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%
so let's talk a little bit
about the book that you have.
07:11.066 --> 07:13.933 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:50%
I love the fact that
this is also a part of
07:14.066 --> 07:15.366 align:start position:25% line:10% size:50%
what you brought in.
07:15.500 --> 07:19.300 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Typically, advertisements around
these books get thrown out
07:19.433 --> 07:22.166 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
and so you have the
advertisement for the book
07:22.300 --> 07:25.766 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
as well, um, the book is
signed on the inside,
07:25.900 --> 07:27.866 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
and you told me
that it was signed to whom?
07:28.000 --> 07:30.800 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:60%
GUEST: It's dedicated to
both my mother and father.
07:31.133 --> 07:32.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
GENICE: Okay, so it was to
both parents, not just one.
07:33.033 --> 07:34.233 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
GUEST: Yes.
07:34.366 --> 07:37.600 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
GENICE: Okay great, and so we
have this, this book written
07:37.733 --> 07:40.266 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
by a gentleman who's known
for his involvement in the
07:40.400 --> 07:43.800 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Civil Rights Movement, also
for his involvement in the
07:43.933 --> 07:48.133 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
March on Washington, he also was
the executive director for a
07:48.266 --> 07:50.900 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:47.5%
number of years for
The National Urban League
07:51.033 --> 07:54.333 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
and so during that time, after
looking at this document,
07:54.466 --> 07:56.966 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
I believe you said that's when
you thought that your father
07:57.100 --> 07:59.333 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
was able to get the
book from him in New York.
07:59.466 --> 08:01.666 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
GUEST: That's right, my
father was working for
08:01.800 --> 08:05.733 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
The United Way of America
at that time and he was
08:05.866 --> 08:07.866 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
working with a lot of
communities around
08:08.000 --> 08:11.400 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
the mid-Atlantic and I believe
08:11.533 --> 08:15.166 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
that they began to collaborate
together on different issues
08:15.300 --> 08:18.500 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:40%
that they had in
common for their concerns.
08:18.633 --> 08:21.400 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
GENICE: Okay, well I, the book
is in good condition,
08:21.533 --> 08:25.233 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
I like that it has the original
paper sleeve and cover on it
08:25.366 --> 08:28.733 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
and again this advertisement
that talks a little bit about
08:28.866 --> 08:32.133 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
the book before it was sold, how
much it would sell for and
08:32.266 --> 08:35.033 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:50%
where you could also
purchase it at book stores.
08:35.166 --> 08:38.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
So that, that advertisement
says that this book could be
08:38.366 --> 08:40.633 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
purchased for $5 at the time,
08:40.766 --> 08:43.300 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
well I'm happy to tell
you that the book now,
08:43.433 --> 08:46.366 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
with the signature in
it would sell for $350.
08:46.500 --> 08:49.400 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:25%
GUEST: No?
Unbelievable.
08:49.533 --> 08:53.000 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5%
GENICE: So um, take care of
keeping everything together
08:53.133 --> 08:55.300 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:62.5%
and success to you as you
continue to go through your
08:55.433 --> 08:58.533 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
dad's things, who knows what
else you may find, but uh,
08:58.666 --> 09:00.966 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
thank you for bringing it on the
show today to share with us.
09:01.266 --> 09:02.700 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
GUEST: Oh, thank
you very much.
09:02.833 --> 09:05.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:60%
And I hope I can give it
to The Urban League or to a

museum that would be interested
in having these papers.

collecting this for a while
09:42.466 --> 09:46.066 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
but I collect Victorian
silverplate and um, this is
09:46.200 --> 09:49.400 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
one of my favorite parts of

what attracted me, yes.
09:56.033 --> 10:00.500 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
ED: Okay um, this was made by
the Wilcox Silver Company, uh,
10:00.666 --> 10:02.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%
you actually have a fairly
early piece which is kind of
10:03.066 --> 10:07.500 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
interesting, the company was
formed in '65 and, your,
10:07.633 --> 10:11.800 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
you have a piece right here
that is dated '69, 1869.
10:11.933 --> 10:13.100 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
GUEST: Yep.
10:13.233 --> 10:16.300 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
ED: So, this is the first, first
couple years of the company.
10:16.433 --> 10:19.400 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:70%
Later on, towards the end of
the century it was absorbed by
10:19.533 --> 10:21.866 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:60%
the International Silver
Company, but this is really
10:22.000 --> 10:24.800 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:55%
the height of American
silver-plated production.

GUEST: Okay.
10:31.433 --> 10:34.166 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
ED: A sugar, a spooner, a
creamer, and then you have
10:34.300 --> 10:35.966 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
a couple of mugs.
10:36.100 --> 10:39.200 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
So, it's a totally great service
along with a centerpiece,
10:39.333 --> 10:42.000 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:50%
I'm sure you, you've
assembled this over time.
10:42.133 --> 10:43.300 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
GUEST: Right.
10:43.433 --> 10:46.033 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:55%
ED: And unfortunately,
silverplate is not as valuable
10:46.166 --> 10:47.800 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
as it probably could.
10:47.933 --> 10:49.766 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
The great thing is that it
hasn't been re-plated,
10:49.900 --> 10:51.400 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
this is original patina.
10:51.533 --> 10:52.733 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
GUEST: Mm-hm, yep.
10:52.866 --> 10:56.566 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%

it, the modeling is fantastic,
10:56.700 --> 11:00.333 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
uh, it's unfortunate, it is
an aesthetic that is really,
11:00.466 --> 11:03.600 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
totally typical American and
it's a wonderful piece uh,
11:03.733 --> 11:05.633 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
any idea of the value, value?
11:05.766 --> 11:08.033 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
GUEST: Um, I really don't,
I don't it's, it's.
11:08.166 --> 11:12.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%

valuable but it's a wonderful,

wonderful set.
11:13.900 --> 11:16.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%

insignificant, it's a pity
11:22.166 --> 11:24.400 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%

12:51.066 --> 12:56.233 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
this watch is worth somewhere
between $20 and $25,000.
12:56.366 --> 12:57.600 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
GUEST: Oh, wow.
12:57.733 --> 13:01.133 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
G. AMORY: Yes, and when I heard
that you bought it for 600,
13:01.266 --> 13:04.300 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
even in the late '80s and
'90s you should have paid
13:04.433 --> 13:07.033 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
considerably more than that.
13:07.166 --> 13:11.433 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:70%
Uh, but it has become one of
the most collectible models of
13:11.566 --> 13:15.833 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
Rolex watch out there in the
market today and while,
13:15.966 --> 13:20.566 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:52.5%
that's the story that
accompanies it, it's, it's just,
13:20.700 --> 13:24.333 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%
it's that value difference
that we've seen increase in,
13:24.466 --> 13:26.866 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
in certain wristwatches
over the years.
13:27.000 --> 13:28.800 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
GUEST: You said 20 to 25,000.
13:28.933 --> 13:31.733 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:60%
G. AMORY: 20 to 25, I've
seen them go higher than that.
13:31.866 --> 13:33.166 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
But thank you for
bringing it out.
13:33.300 --> 13:34.166 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
GUEST: Well.
13:34.300 --> 13:35.200 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:40%
G. AMORY: It was
just a wonderful time.
13:35.333 --> 13:36.266 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
GUEST: It is...
13:36.400 --> 13:37.633 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
G. AMORY: I love seeing a
good, good wristwatch.
13:37.766 --> 13:39.100 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
GUEST: Welp, so do I.
13:39.233 --> 13:40.300 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%

13:56.466 --> 13:58.966 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
you have brought in a grouping
13:59.100 --> 14:00.933 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that's amongst the most exciting
14:01.066 --> 14:03.400 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
that I have been able
to look at today.
14:03.533 --> 14:06.766 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
And you have a very personal
story to be able to tell us.
14:06.900 --> 14:09.766 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:57.5%
How did you acquire all
of these artifacts and
14:09.900 --> 14:12.300 align:start position:25% line:10% size:50%
your personal story.
14:12.433 --> 14:15.600 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
GUEST: Well, as a child I always
had an interest in space
14:15.733 --> 14:18.466 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
and it started when
dad pointed out Sputnik
14:18.600 --> 14:21.633 align:start position:15% line:10% size:55%
in the backyard flying
overhead, and the satellite,
14:21.766 --> 14:23.400 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
and at that time,
14:23.533 --> 14:28.133 align:start position:10% line:10% size:80%
I had a little dime store turtle
who quickly became "Sputnik"
14:28.733 --> 14:32.700 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5%
and when Sputnik passed away,
my parents even had
14:32.833 --> 14:35.300 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75%
a gold ring made, of a turtle,
14:35.433 --> 14:37.166 align:start position:20% line:10% size:62.5%
and this was poor Sputnik
14:37.300 --> 14:42.066 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
and I wore this Sputnik ring
as a good luck charm
14:42.200 --> 14:44.233 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
for all of astronaut training.
14:44.366 --> 14:47.433 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And it all started when I
was a high school biology,
14:47.566 --> 14:49.166 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
chemistry and physics teacher,
14:49.300 --> 14:51.933 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
and um, it was in August and
14:52.066 --> 14:56.066 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
I was getting ready for school
and I heard on the radio that
14:56.200 --> 14:59.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%
President Reagan was going
to send a teacher into space.
14:59.433 --> 15:02.800 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:52.5%
And when I went to my
high school, my principal said,
15:02.933 --> 15:04.800 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
"Kathleen, this
one's for you."
15:04.933 --> 15:08.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
I'd mountain climbed on every
continent and, and he said,
15:08.500 --> 15:11.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
"Well," you know,
"you've done the land,
15:11.233 --> 15:12.700 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
space is what's left."
15:12.833 --> 15:17.066 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And so, I applied, as did
almost 12,000 other teachers
15:17.200 --> 15:21.133 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
and so then there was a down
select to 112 and from the
15:21.266 --> 15:24.433 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60%
112 became the 10 of us.
15:24.566 --> 15:28.266 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5%
And it was through a two-week
conference, we met a lot of
15:28.400 --> 15:30.300 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:55%
the Apollo astronauts,
15:30.433 --> 15:34.666 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:60%
a lot of the judges went
through um, NASA headquarters,
15:34.800 --> 15:36.633 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Goddard Spaceflight Center.
15:36.766 --> 15:40.633 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
We were told that
nothing was by chance,
15:40.766 --> 15:43.833 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
that every breakfast, lunch and
dinner there actually was a
15:43.966 --> 15:48.366 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
NASA person, it was orchestrated
that there was someone next to
15:48.500 --> 15:52.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
us to make sure that we, when
we returned from space,
15:52.600 --> 15:55.500 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
could communicate the
experience to anyone.
15:55.633 --> 15:58.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
So I was thrilled to become
one of the 10, and to go
15:58.766 --> 16:00.800 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
through the astronaut training,
16:00.933 --> 16:03.533 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
and there's the
picture of the 10 of us
16:03.666 --> 16:08.200 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:55%
and that's the KC-135,
and you can see the parabola,
16:08.333 --> 16:12.400 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
we did, we did about
20 parabolas in um,
16:12.533 --> 16:15.200 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
in 40 minutes and um,
16:15.333 --> 16:17.966 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
we experienced weightlessness
and we had fun
16:18.100 --> 16:20.866 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and in fact when we got the
video it was, we were laughing
16:21.000 --> 16:23.700 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and giggling we were like a
bunch of kids at recess
16:23.833 --> 16:25.266 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
in a schoolyard.
16:25.400 --> 16:27.433 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
We had so much fun
being weightless.
16:27.566 --> 16:30.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
The journey had its highs and
lows, you know, losing, losing
16:31.066 --> 16:34.900 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75%
Christa and, and losing, being
there at the Challenger crew
16:35.033 --> 16:38.233 align:start position:10% line:10% size:72.5%
and had just, I was there you
know, when the accident happened
16:38.366 --> 16:41.333 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:65%
and I'd just even finished
talking to her parents.
16:41.966 --> 16:44.000 align:start position:20% line:10% size:55%
And Christa and I were
really close, we're about
16:44.133 --> 16:49.500 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
two or three months apart in our
age and um, and it was just
16:49.633 --> 16:53.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
an extraordinary experience,
you know, beyond the,
16:53.600 --> 16:56.833 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:35%
beyond the um,
astronaut training,
16:56.966 --> 17:00.666 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
and when I arrived home
from one NASA event
17:00.800 --> 17:04.900 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:45%
I got this package
and it was from this um,
17:05.033 --> 17:09.766 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Maryland, uh retired, fighter
pilot, test pilot and he wrote
17:09.900 --> 17:15.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
this book, "Voyages Into Airy
Regions" and he sent me his
17:15.500 --> 17:19.866 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:55%
command fighter pilot,
test pilot wings and it was
17:20.000 --> 17:24.566 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
really touching, in the letter,
you know, he said, that he said,
17:24.700 --> 17:29.033 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:65%
"I've taken these wings as
high and as far and as fast as
17:29.166 --> 17:31.766 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
I'm able and it would be nice
if you could take them the
17:31.900 --> 17:33.133 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
rest of the way."
17:33.266 --> 17:34.500 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
ROSS: Mm.
17:34.633 --> 17:37.733 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
GUEST: And it was just things,
many, many stories like that.
17:37.866 --> 17:44.000 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And after NASA I had gone
to uh, Westinghouse and
17:44.133 --> 17:46.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
Westinghouse had built, in
Baltimore, had built the
17:46.766 --> 17:50.500 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
Apollo camera and so they
had invited Mike Collins,
17:50.633 --> 17:54.466 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5%
the Apollo astronaut to um,
to give the keynote speech.
17:55.166 --> 17:59.066 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75%
So, since I was working at, at
NAS, at Westinghouse and they
17:59.200 --> 18:00.800 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
knew my NASA background,
18:00.933 --> 18:06.366 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
they had me reduce that Apollo
mission down to 10 minutes.
18:06.900 --> 18:10.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So right before we were to
go on stage I said to Mike,
18:11.033 --> 18:14.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
I said, "I reduced the Apollo
footage to 10 minutes,
18:14.800 --> 18:16.466 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:35%
do you want to
take a look at it?"
18:16.600 --> 18:20.166 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
And he said, "No," he said, you
know, "I, I know the mission,"
18:20.300 --> 18:22.666 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
and he said, "I'm good."
18:22.800 --> 18:27.533 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, we're sitting there on
stage and it's show time,
18:27.666 --> 18:31.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
there are all the Westinghouse
employees and he leans over
18:31.333 --> 18:35.533 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
and he says to me, "Kathleen,
I want you to narrate it."
18:35.666 --> 18:38.366 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
Well, there's no way you
say no to Mike Collins,
18:38.500 --> 18:39.800 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
so I don't know,
18:39.933 --> 18:42.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
before I knew it, I
stood up there and I said,
18:42.366 --> 18:46.166 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60%
"Well, I'm going to show
you Mike's home movies,"
18:46.300 --> 18:49.066 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:27.5%
and I said,
"his vacation to the moon."
18:49.200 --> 18:52.233 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5%
And so, everybody laughed and
I felt really you know, calm.
18:52.833 --> 18:56.966 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5%
And so, then we went to the
VIP dining room at NASA,
18:57.100 --> 19:00.533 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and NASA had given us
these Apollo food tubes.
19:00.666 --> 19:04.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
So, I hid the Apollo food
tube under his napkin,
19:04.833 --> 19:06.766 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
so he picks up his napkin
19:06.900 --> 19:10.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:30%
and he says,
"What the hell is this?"
19:10.833 --> 19:13.566 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:70%
And I said, "Well you of all
people should know what it is."
19:13.700 --> 19:17.833 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
And he said, "Yep I do" and he
grabs a sharpie and he puts,
19:17.966 --> 19:20.466 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:37.5%
writes on here,
that you can see,
19:20.600 --> 19:22.666 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
"Kathleen owes me a martini."
19:22.800 --> 19:27.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
And in fact, he actually wrote
it, in, when he autographed
19:27.333 --> 19:31.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:47.5%
the book, you know,
"Kathleen owes me a martini."
19:31.300 --> 19:35.033 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:67.5%
So about two or three years
later, at a space conference,
19:35.166 --> 19:38.933 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:60%
there were open bars all
around and there was Mike,
19:39.066 --> 19:41.700 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:45%
talking to people,
I went over to the bar,
19:41.833 --> 19:44.066 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
I got a martini and
I went over and I said,
19:44.200 --> 19:47.100 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
"Mike, I deliver
on my promises."
19:47.233 --> 19:50.200 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:45%
And so, it kind of
had really good closure.
19:50.333 --> 19:51.533 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
ROSS: Hmm.
19:51.666 --> 19:54.633 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
GUEST: And really
touching moments,
19:54.766 --> 19:56.533 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
my birthday is in July
19:56.666 --> 20:00.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:60%
and NASA had a party for
me in the backyard of a NASA
20:00.433 --> 20:04.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:62.5%
executive and Christa had
presented me with this plaque
20:04.300 --> 20:07.133 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
and it says, "Good friends
are uplifting"
20:07.266 --> 20:09.333 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
like we, we were very close.
20:09.466 --> 20:11.433 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:37.5%

of it she writes,

"We already have a
lifetime worth of memories.
20:14.233 --> 20:15.900 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
Love, Christa."
20:16.033 --> 20:21.366 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And so, and then what was
really sad, after the accident
20:21.500 --> 20:25.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:67.5%
coming home and seeing even
this Christmas card from her.
20:25.733 --> 20:27.766 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
It was great talking
to you at JPL,
20:27.900 --> 20:31.333 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
I do think a mini-reunion should
be scheduled for some time

20:36.000 --> 20:37.600 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%

20:37.733 --> 20:43.000 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:65%
And it was um, this little

20:43.133 --> 20:46.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%

a flight suit and, and
20:50.433 --> 20:52.233 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:32.5%
going through
astronaut training,
20:52.366 --> 20:55.266 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:35%
it was just an
extraordinary experience
20:55.400 --> 20:58.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:47.5%
and the astronauts,
you know, get all the credit
20:58.433 --> 21:01.633 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
as their boarding the orbiter,
but it's the, it's the, it's
21:01.766 --> 21:04.733 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
the engineers, the scientists,
the people that are working
21:04.866 --> 21:09.033 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
24/7 to make that flight,

what I have at home.
21:24.100 --> 21:26.166 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:32.5%
I would have,
it would have been,
21:26.300 --> 21:28.133 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
I'd of need a U-Haul

me shooting from the hip on
21:30.666 --> 21:33.400 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
all of this, I mean
it's so historic,
21:33.533 --> 21:35.033 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to be able to place a value
21:35.166 --> 21:39.000 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
I mean is it 30,000, $50,000,
21:39.133 --> 21:41.466 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
as you say it's priceless um,
21:41.600 --> 21:45.266 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
I'm almost embarrassed to
try to put a price on it.
21:45.400 --> 21:48.400 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
GUEST: I was just blessed
to have met, you know,
21:48.533 --> 21:53.133 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
all of the Apollo astronauts
and to get their insight and
21:53.266 --> 21:55.766 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
I remember talking
to Eugene Cernan,
21:55.900 --> 21:59.400 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60%
and we were flying here,
flying there, you know,
21:59.533 --> 22:02.833 align:start position:15% line:10% size:52.5%
giving a keynote here
and there and I said, "Gene,"
22:02.966 --> 22:06.066 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
I said, "This is all like
a kaleidoscope and it's
22:06.200 --> 22:11.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:70%
all reeling and I can't even
process all that's happening."
22:11.233 --> 22:14.733 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And I said, "One day this
is all going to be over,"
22:14.866 --> 22:18.500 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and I said, "Does the
experience diminish?"
22:18.633 --> 22:21.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
And it was really touching
what he said, he said,
22:21.766 --> 22:25.600 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
"No, Kathleen," he said,
"It actually becomes..."
22:25.733 --> 22:29.333 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:20%
he said,
"More, more relevant."
22:29.800 --> 22:32.566 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
And he said, "Because you're
gonna realize there were
22:32.700 --> 22:37.233 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
people that was, were as
qualified and many more
22:37.366 --> 22:40.966 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
qualified and by the grace of
God you got selected and
22:41.100 --> 22:45.900 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
you actually," you know, he said
something, it's not really a
22:46.033 --> 22:50.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
burden but, but you have, you
have to give back, you have to
22:50.433 --> 22:54.633 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
share, you know, why you've been
chosen and experienced this.

brought in for us today?
23:22.600 --> 23:25.133 align:start position:25% line:10% size:52.5%
GUEST: Thank you, um,
I brought a photograph
23:25.266 --> 23:26.600 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
of my grandmother.
23:26.733 --> 23:30.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
Um, I came basically to find
out about the frame to see if
23:30.300 --> 23:31.966 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
it was handmade.
23:32.100 --> 23:34.233 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:52.5%
My grandmother was in
approximate early 20s before
23:34.366 --> 23:36.833 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
she had any of her kids and uh,
23:36.966 --> 23:41.800 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:60%
she was born in 1895 and
way before my time obviously.
23:41.933 --> 23:45.766 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65%
But uh, the photograph was
from my grandmother to my mom
23:45.900 --> 23:48.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and then when my mom passed
away, she wanted it to go to
23:48.700 --> 23:51.900 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:57.5%
her youngest sister and
my aunt passed away about
23:52.033 --> 23:54.033 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
a year ago and now it's mine.
23:54.166 --> 23:56.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And I used to spend summers
with my grandmother
23:56.366 --> 23:58.000 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
at her farm in Maryland.
23:58.133 --> 24:01.600 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
She lived in Forestville,
Maryland and at that time
24:01.733 --> 24:06.266 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Forestville was farms and dirt
roads and such like that,
24:06.400 --> 24:07.733 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
not like it is today,
24:07.866 --> 24:11.533 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and she had a full-time job
with the federal government.
24:11.666 --> 24:15.000 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
She ran elevators and also
24:15.133 --> 24:17.833 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
maintained her farm with
my step-grandfather.
24:18.266 --> 24:19.866 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
GENICE: Well, great.
24:20.000 --> 24:23.433 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:77.5%
Um, what I loved about when you
brought this photograph to me,
24:23.566 --> 24:26.100 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60%
number one that it was a
member of your family.
24:26.233 --> 24:27.200 align:start position:37.5% line:10% size:27.5%
GUEST: Mmm.
24:27.333 --> 24:28.600 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
GENICE: And that you had
very fond memories of
24:28.733 --> 24:29.900 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
spending time with her.
24:30.033 --> 24:31.166 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
GUEST: Mm-hm.
24:31.300 --> 24:33.500 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
GENICE: And so there we have
her posed quite elegantly.
24:33.633 --> 24:35.433 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
And then the frame,
as you said...
24:35.566 --> 24:36.666 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
GUEST: Yeah.
24:36.800 --> 24:39.800 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:57.5%
GENICE: This beautiful,
walnut, Victorian-style frame
24:39.933 --> 24:44.366 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:62.5%
with all of this carving,
these flowers, just add the
24:44.500 --> 24:48.300 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
elegance to the photograph and
a lot of times we just don't
24:48.433 --> 24:51.766 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:42.5%
see these pieces,
as far as the framework,
24:51.900 --> 24:53.766 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
with all of the, uh, wood
24:53.900 --> 24:57.366 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:47.5%
seemingly being one
piece that's carved out.
24:57.500 --> 25:00.900 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:55%
And so I was just very
intrigued and drawn even more
25:01.033 --> 25:04.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
to the photograph
because the frame enhances it.
25:04.233 --> 25:06.200 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
GUEST: Yes, I think
so too, mm-hm.
25:06.333 --> 25:08.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
GENICE: So of course, people

26:37.733 --> 26:40.300 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:57.5%
item for me, I've never
missed an episode and
26:40.433 --> 26:42.900 align:start position:10% line:10% size:75%
I always said, "Wouldn't it be
awesome if we could come on down
26:43.033 --> 26:45.433 align:start position:25% line:10% size:52.5%
and take part in your
wonderful show."
