In addition, The Roadshow Furniture Roundup is looking for large pieces of furniture within 50 miles of Atlanta. Complete furniture submission rules are available online or by dialing the toll-free information line (see above).

Programs taped this summer will make up the 16th broadcast season of Antiques Roadshow, which will air on PBS in 2012.
