History and Relics has a jammed packed show for you this week. We’re in Washington D.C and will be taking you on a visual tour all around to many of the different sites including Arlington National Cemetery, a tour of many of the memorials such as the 9/11 Pentagon, Lincoln and Jefferson memorials as well as the War Memorials for WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.
We’ll even take a stroll down 16th Street at Black Lives Matter Plaza, right up to the fence outside the White House. We’ll then hop on a boat and take a fun daytime cruise out on the Potomac.
Lastly, we’ll make a quick stop at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History where the original flag that inspired the Star Bangled Banner is located as well as Dorothy’s ruby red slippers from the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz, we’ll see a signed baseball from Babe Ruth, costumes of C3PO and R2-D2 from Star Wars, the Return of the Jedi, Edith and Archie’s chairs from classic TV show All in the Family, and even President’s Lincoln’s top hat we wore the night he was assassinated at Ford’s Theater in 1865.
There’s just way too much to see here, so kick back, relax, and enjoy the show right here on History and Relics.

Another great episode John and Dana! One of my favorite TV facts; the original Edith and Archie chairs were acquired by the production from a Southern California secondhand furniture store for reportedly less than $20 for use in the show's pilot episode. They went on to star in eight seasons, and after the final episode of Season 8, believing it to be the show's last, they were donated to The Smithsonian Institution on September 18, 1978. However, in the weeks that followed, the network would order another season of the show, but the original chairs could not be reclaimed from the national collection, so a second set were specially designed and fabricated for the final season. A mill was found in England that produced custom textiles and fabrics were handmade to match the chairs' original fabric, then laboriously distressed with a wire brush and other tools to simulate the original aged chairs. The cost of producing the second set of chairs exceeded $15,000 in 1978.
