Fun store, almost a museum, but almost everything's for sale! The prices are fair, and the variety is amazing! From vintage clothing to a Yugo, you'll find it here.

Lots of items that we saw from the 40's and up. Some of it is in surprisingly great shape! Applegate dishes without scratches or chips! Nifty old stoves that need tlc to be used or resold on any of the apps, TT, FBMP, IG etc. It's a fun couple hours to explore the past. ðŸ¤
