During each episode of Collector’s Call, Whelchel checks out some incredible private collections of nostalgic memorabilia. With the help of professional appraisers, they discover what the items are really worth and offer a trade with another valuable item that might be perfect for the person’s collection. The collectors must decide if they want to give something up in order to add something exciting to their assortment of pop culture products.
