Article on Retro Appliances

Hello all,

My name is Samira Jafari, I am a reporter with the Associated Press bureau in Atlanta.

I am working on a story about the rising interest in appliances from the 1950s. I have spoken to many designers and antique experts, but now I am looking for people who simply love collecting this stuff. The more you have around the house, the better.

Please e-mail me within the week if you are a Georgia resident who would be willing to be interviewed about 1950s appliances and photographed.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Sorry. I tried my best.

I would probably have a better chance of persuading him if you could send the air tickets for his airflight to Georgia, to me, as soon as possible. Leave the name on them blank for the time being; I can easily fill them in. I look forward to your response.

Hi Samira,

We have an Internet club for collecting antique electric mixers at:

I am not aware of a major collector from that part of the country, but ask on the forum there to see if anyone is from your area.
