BDE's Auction Channel and CBS team up. cbs.com Is It The Real Deal? Friday, March 31, 2000 - 09:00 AM ET New York -- "The Real Deal" is back! This is your chance to let our experts evaluate your old stuff and decide whether it's junk or gems. We've teamed up with The Auction Channel. On Friday's Early Show we'll kick off the series, which will be airing regularly through the fall. We'll be looking at collectibles and some not-so-collectibles and we'll tell you what makes these items valuable. Our experts from The Auction Channel will examine items we've collected and then tell us what they might fetch at an auction and what similar items have sold for at auctions. The owners of the pieces we're featuring will also be on hand to share the stories and the history behind their prized possessions. ITEMS SCHEDULED TO BE FEATURED ON MARCH 31 Animator Chuck Jones' drawings ? (Chuck Jones created Pepe le Pew, Wile E. Coyote, Road Runner, and he was an animator for the Grinch, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig and Elmer Fudd). A Mork and Mindy Radio Puff Daddy's Yearbook (yearbooks with famous people pictured have become extremely collectible). Things to look for with yearbooks: who owned it, whether it's signed by the famous person and the condition. Fruit Labels (original fruit labels used on crates to ship fruit). 3 Little Pigs Toys (anything Disney is extremely collectible). If you would like to get your "stuff" on "The Early Show" for future segments please e-mail us with your name, phone number and a description of the item you'd like to submit or write to us at: The Early Show CBS News C/O Leigh Goldman Balber 524 West 57th Street, 7th flr.
