young vac collector

[perc-o-prince]

I just saw a teaser on CBS for tomorrow evening with Katie Couric. Seems they'll have a young vac collector on there? Did anyone happen to catch this??

It's Kyle from the VCCC. He was on Leno and the Megan Mullaly show as well.

as Pete said

Thats Kyke K. from Michigan, he's been on the Megan Mullaly show, Jay Leno, and the Today Show so far. He's 12 I think, and has already amassed a collection of 200+ vacuums, including a 1908 Hoover model O!

Wasn't our Fred (HooverWheelAway) on Leno years ago?

Excellent little film clip starring Kyle and his vacuum cleaners.Now lets get other collectors on Jay Leno,and the Megan Mellaly shows-with washers dryers,etc.I have a Pennys vacuum-a "Hoover" but not the one Kyle has with a cordreel.Mine was stored outside-was given to me.In the process of fixing it up.Its bag is in terrible shape.May have to get another one.Outdoor exposure doesn't do the vinyl and zipper any good out here!
