The Spinach Can Collectibles and Popeye Museum is a fantastic place! It features an impressive collection of Popeye and other character figures. The owner is incredibly friendly; she even offered treats for our dog when we visited. This is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to collect some memorable Popeye memorabilia!

Wonderful shop in a fun town dedicated to the Popeye comic strip and its history, characters and creator. This shop has the full range of Popeye collectibles and a museum that is stock full and will leave you smiling. The lady we met that day managing the shop was very sweet and helpful. Nice experience!

My wife and I visited there with my brother and his family back in 2008, and it was perfect timing since the Popeye Festival was already in full swing that weekend. It was really cool seeing the collectible items there in the store, and we also met Denne Kornechuk (from Canada), a Popeye impersonator and he looked just like Popeye! Interesting fact: Denne was born in 1929, the very same year Popeye was created! Very nice guy, and we got to pose for a picture with him. We also saw a guy and a woman impersonating Bluto and Olive Oyl but they were not very good likenesses (I don't think anyone can out-Bluto the actor Paul Smith or beat Shelly Duvall as Olive Oyl in the Popeye movie). Go check out the store. Really neat!
