Most of the items date from the 1920s to 1950 and you
might even find a 1950s Radio Flyer Wagon or an original
1940s military issued Hamilton watch. It’s always an
uncertainty to see what might appear, which is half the fun.
The store changes inventory seasonally. In the summer, there
are watering cans and 48-star flags; in the winter pick up
tree ornaments like Grandma used to hang.
