Olle is Norwegian (ya) and enjoys sucking the mold and historic dust out of our collections. Literally.
Bedecked in his very own nametag and rosemalling, this Nilfisk particulate vac is the best friend to a collections curator. Unlike your house vac, Olle actually does remove harmful items from that Eisenhower jacket that the WWII Vet swears “Eisenhower himself gave to him”. Olle features variable suction and speed – the key to removing the debris of life and not the buttons.
At over $1,600 (including several years of bags and filters) he is not cheap. But what a difference it makes to artifacts, esp textiles, on exhibit.
