The purveyor of goods on this site has been a collector of “things” since his earliest memories.  He collected things that were interesting, as well as things he was quite sure he would need in the future; i.e. an R.C. Allen manual typewriter.  As surprised as you may be that such a machine has not come back into vogue, items like this have moved from the idea of utility to the notion of being an antique.  It has now reached a point that he must share his treasures with all of you.    This site is also meant to convey the experience of Main Street in small town America…a simpler place and time.  Enjoy the stroll down memory lane for some and for others simply enjoy the journey.
