Overview

Enter this nugget of a shop and you will feel as if you just entered the Western branch of the Smithsonian. Its four rooms are crammed with turn-of-the-century items that are true antiques rather than just stuff with dust on it. Wooden chairs, phonographs, ironing boards, desks and tables abound. There are also arcane antiques like toothpick holders, pocketknives, watches and even an odd serving plate with the busts of Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower. Book hounds can find hardcover editions of Zane Grey and Sinclair Lewis. Trades and consignments are accepted.
