Talk about a glowing endorsement.

Kirk Bowren, President/CEO of NBC Universal Employees FCU, creates classic-auto themed lamps, which he sells on his website, www.bomalalamps.com. Among his most ardent fans is NBC superstar Jay Leno, a well-known antique automobile enthusiast. Leno owns four BoMALA lamps, including one that's a permanent fixture in his Tonight Show dressing room. Leno had even selected one of Bowren's lamps to be featured on his Tonight Show set desk, until a last minute design change nixed the artwork.
