For the second time this year, a sell out crowd at Bramptons' Shoppers World in September gave us some fine surprises and extraordinary finds.

Niagara's most elegant shopping venue.

It was the Pen Centre that was host to the Roadshow during the second week in September, on the Autumnal leg of our 2004 Canada-wide tour.

The St Catherines community turned out in force over two exceptionally busy days, presenting us with a spectacular array of treasures which included the historically important alongside the valuable, through to the rarest of rare and the best of the best.
You'll have to watch out for the new TV series, 'Treasures that Talk' for some of the great stories, dramatic finds and surprises that turned up here.  The 'Pen', as its endearingly known locally, became our 20th 'SELL OUT' event of the tour, taking the Dominion wide treasure trove tally to a staggering $22.5 million with 5 more Roadshows still to go!

It was the firm belief of the early mariners and ship builders, that a proper figurehead was a symbol of good luck for a vessel and all who sailed in her.

But not for the Pictou steamship 'Fairie Queene' carrying passengers and mail bound for Charlottetown.

She was mysteriously lost in the straits of Northumberland off the Nova Scotia coast on October 7th. 1859. Now, nearly a century on, her figure head, the carved wooden head of a horse, was discovered by Alex Miller, buried on the shoreline. It has now passed down to his family following a stint in the Pioneer Museum in Gravenhill, which closed in recent years.

What happened on the voyage remains a mystery to this day, with only the 'Old Giddyup,' knowing the fateful truth.
