I "discovered" this treasure trove establishment when my daughter...several years ago...began taking her three young children there to pick out Christmas gifts for Nana. And the treasures that now populate my home. A German WW1 gas mask: my grandsons were in their delight with flatulence phase; a beautiful vintage No5 Standard Underwood Standard Typewriter: they still urge me to write a blazing and swashbuckling tale of villians, heroes, beasts, and epic battles of good, evil, and bravery. A 19th century New York City wooden police truncheon and a vintage horse crop: since they were very young, Nana has threatened to "flog" them when they become too boisterous. My threats were met with laughter. There are so many more beloved gifts. Today Nana brought home another Elm Street treasure of her own: a beautiful old wheelchair. I was asked if I was going to put it on a porch to support a flower pot. Absolutely not! No harmful elements or geranuims for it. The chair now sits comfortably surrounded by my prints and other ecletic pieces. All of which I love. I wish I could give Antiques on Elm Street 10 or 50 stars!
Oh Kathleen never realized you were "nana" and look forward to the grandchildren coming yearly for their unique purchases!!! Happy you found another treasure and hope to see you soon!!!

I bought this lovely blue-gray bookshelf here and one of the employees, Susan, was kind enough to carry it for me from the shop to my car! The store is very large and packed with a variety of things. I would return here for the customer service alone.
Sandy thank you for your kind words about the shop and our vendor volunteers!!! We will certainly let Susan know that you recognized her!!! Please come back soon and enjoy that bookshelf!!!

Loved exploring your store today! We are 'outta towners' BIG time, but we knew New England had a historic past, and thus many adorable finds. Can't say we were even slightly disappointed with your selection! You may [yet] see us again.
We welcome you back anytime!!! Thank you for your review ❤️
