Congratulations Hans!


I agree with Tom, Mike's collection couldn't have found a better home! I also had the pleasure of meeting and visiting Mike in his home about 10 or 11 years ago. Norm Brown took my son and I to meet him. Truly a great guy, great cook, and an awesome host! And his collection was the largest I've ever seen! Think he had over 600 vacs at the time, and about 300 kitchen appliances. He served sloppy joes, coleslaw, chips & dip, for lunch with brownies for dessert, and I remember we had to move vacuums out of the way so we could sit down at the table. All homemade (except the chips of course) and all delicious. He also had an extensive and well organized paper collection. Manuals and brochures were in sleeves in binders, and he also showed us several old Consumer Reports (I think from the 40's) he had. Truly a memorable day spent with a great guy and his awesome collection!

Jeff
