From the reviews

Anyone who thinks vintage books, records, comics, costumes and memorabilia have no interest needs to stop in this lovely store. The owner's knowledge is encyclopedic! The books are conserved and shelved with great care, and the experience here is so, so positive on several levels!

★★★★★ — A, Dec 2024

Excellent vintage store for books, music, VHS, old magazines. The owner is very knowledgeable. Take your time in this store: there are real movie customers worn by famous actors and actresses on display. Lots of Star Wars merchandise!

★★★★★ — James, May 2022

They are remodeling so it looks cluttered but I am amazed at the place. Beautiful movie costumes and lots of vintage books, magazines, CDs, vynil and more. Worth the trip.

★★★★★ — Andy, Nov 2025

This place is really amazing. It has an extension collection of old and more recent books, music CDs and LPs, movie memorabilia, magazines, toys, comics, and numerous other items. Very organized, too, and many older books and various items are wrapped in plastic, which is a nice touch to keep them protected.
