Hi folks!

I got a scan of a newspaper concerning a 51 years old Lego fan, who has
built a whole town in his subterrain rooms. Now he has come out and shows his
stuff including some train layout in a museum (he owns one to two million
bricks in total).

I don't know how, but Lego got aware of this collector two years ago and they
invited him to Billund, where two employees of the Lego Company talked for
hours with him.

Regards,

Ben
