Unusual appliance collector searches for museum benefactor
CBSN
In the shadow of the Colorado Rockies lives a man with a mountainous dilemma. For years, Lee Maxwell has been collecting antique washing machines, but he's running out of places to put them.
When Maxwell was first interviewed by CBS News in 2018, he had built a warehouse to hold all the objects of his obsession. Now, there's yet another warehouse behind that one, once again filled with nothing but hundreds of washing machines.
"I do have a problem," Maxwell, 92, admitted. He also has a Guinness World Record: In August 2019, he was awarded the honor for having the largest collection of washing machines in the United States. At the time, he had 1,350 devices.
