The Season 9 opener for the A&E show "Hoarders" featured the eclectic collection of Las Vegas resident Lonnie Hammargren. Some of the items are quite remarkable, and curiously, one particular item, an Apollo boilerplate, was essentially dismissed by their hired expert (Mark, from the Clark County Museum System) because Mr. Hammargren lacked documentation about the item, though a keen eye can clearly see that it is a legitimate object.Many other large space-related items were shown on screen at various other times.

The place is known as the Hammargren Home of Nevada History. It is open to the public two days a year every October. Since 1971, the Hammargren Home of Nevada History as been the residence of retired neurosurgeon and former Nevada Lt. Governor Lonnie Hammargren, M.D., and his wife Sandy. The home has become world renowned for its collections of Nevada history; especially Las Vegas memorabilia, casino signs, movie and stage production props, and other unique artifacts from around the world.Lonnie and Sandy Hammagren open their home once a year during Nevada Day weekend to allow the public to view their incredible collections. | |
