Hollywood Treasure on Syfy - Mary Poppins' bag, Wicked Witch's hat

[doconeill]

Something reminded me of this, and thought others here would be interested due to the Disney...one of the new shows on Syfy is Hollywood Treasure, with Joe Maddalena (Profiles In History auction house). The first episode will feature a segment on Mary Poppins' carpet bag, found in a basement, and the second episode has the Wicked Witch's hat.

Part of the story behind the bag that didn't make it to air (I met Joe down in Orlando last week as part of the Digital Press Tour), was that part of the marketing campaign for the movie's release with Kraft foods apparently raffled the bag off - filled with cash. The winner was only interested in the cash, and gave the bag to another family member...

Oh, and the first two episodes air Oct. 27th...

I'll have to try and catch it...although I'll be out of town on the 27th.
