FINDING A TREASURE: TREASURE HUNT

DIANE SAWYER (ABC NEWS)(OC): So, before the break, we showed you these two paintings, and asked if you could [1]pick out which one was worth a million dollars.

DIANE SAWYER (ABC NEWS)(VO): Here it is.  Did you guess it right?

DIANE SAWYER (ABC NEWS)(OC): As we said, it's the fantasy of anyone who has ever [2]wandered into a thrift shop, to find the treasure that changes your life.  As ABC's David Wright tells us.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): When Andy Fields took his family to Vegas, he [3]hit the jackpot.  Not at the casinos, but [4]the garage sale.  He bought this picture, not even realizing what he has.

ANDY FIELDS (FOUND WARHOL DRAWING): When I was [5]reframing this, underneath this picture, there turned out to be this.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): One of the earliest Warhol's, worth a lot more than the $5 he paid.

ANDY FIELDS (FOUND WARHOL DRAWING): He said let's start at $2.1 million.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): Remember these flowers?  The Indiana man who paid 30 bucks for them at a thrift store was surprised to see a picture of his painting featured in the board game "Masterpiece."  The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston [6]bought it for $1.2 million.  A Philadelphia man paid $4 for [7]this old copy of the Declaration of Independence.  [8]An original, sold at auction for $2.4 million.  And retired truck driver Terri Horton spent five bucks for a painting she doesn't even like.  It may be a Jackson Pollack, worth more than $50 million.

TERRI HORTON (RETIRED TRUCK DRIVER): [9]Just blew me away.  I thought, my god.  Something this ugly, to me, and my girlfriend, [10]we were going to throw darts at it.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): Today [11]with appraiser in tow, we went to the Council Thrift Shop in LA.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(OC): So what are [12]our chances of finding the mega millions?

JEFFREY MORSEBURG (ART CURATOR AND APPRAISER): Probably [13]one in thousands.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): As he was telling us what to look for...

JEFFREY MORSEBURG (ART CURATOR AND APPRAISER): You see that it has a printed title.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): He got a call.

JEFFREY MORSEBURG (ART CURATOR AND APPRAISER): Oh my god.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): Someone in Lincoln, Nebraska, looking for answers.

JEFFREY MORSEBURG (ART CURATOR AND APPRAISER): If it's a real painting, it's going to have texture.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(OC): Did they say where they found it?

JEFFREY MORSEBURG (ART CURATOR AND APPRAISER): She found it in a thrift store.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): At this thrift store, [14]the biggest bargain to date wasn't art, but [15]sneakers.

JACK PEREZ (COUNCIL THRIFT SHOP): Walked by, saw them and I said, you know what, Sophie, [16]let's put these on eBay.

SOPHIE (COUNCIL THRIFT SHOP): Air Jordan.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(OC): $1,100 for sneakers?

JACK PEREZ (COUNCIL THRIFT SHOP): Yeah.

DAVID WRIGHT (ABC NEWS)(VO): [17]One person's trash may be someone else's jackpot.  David Wright, ABC News, Los Angeles.
