Then Corey meets a man selling an autographed jersey of famed New York Yankees icon Lou Gehrig. Can he reach deep and catch the Iron Horse's jersey or will he strike out swinging?

Uncovered at a yard sale, will this artwork turn out to be a hidden masterpiece or a case of mistaken identity? And later, a woman hopes to sell her classic 1950s clapping chimp toy. Will the Old Man and Chumlee offer to play nice or will there be too much monkeying around?

It's a blast from the past for the Pawn Stars when they check out a huge collection of mini bikes from the 1970's. Will the guys saddle up and buy the micro machines, or will they hold out for the full-sized counterparts? Then, an early 1900s baseball bat swings into the shop. Will Corey and Chumlee hit a hum-dinger of a deal, or will they let it walk? And later, Rick is presented with a piece of mail flown by Charles Lindbergh on the Spirit of St. Louis. Will he soar to new heights for this historic piece of airmail or will the negotiations stall out and take a nosedive?

The Pawn Stars say their prayers when a guy brings in a ring believed to have been owned by a Catholic Cardinal. A symbol of status and power in the Church, does Rick see a chance for cathedral-sized profits, or lose faith in the item's worth? Then, a woman pops in with a collection of four antique pistols from the 1800's. Will the guys load up a giant offer, or is this deal shooting blanks? And later, Corey and Chumlee remember their own high school days when they check out John Wayne's yearbook. Can this deal be voted most likely to succeed, or will the seller look like the class clown?

After taking a joyride on a rare 100 year old monster tractor, Mike and his brother Robbie take to a property packed with amazing steam engines and rusty relics.

Later, the guys head to Whidbey Island and find a graveyard of car grills and a 1947 Chevy pickup.

The guys pick a Pennsylvania warehouse and find a rare comic book that gets Mike s "spidey" senses twitching.
