This is a MUST see, when visiting SF. It is one of the most unique antique and ephemera mercantiles I’ve ever been too. The owner Mark and his staff are incredibly knowledgeable and very kind. It is like a museum you can interact with and purchase. I now have some incredible pieces I’ve added to my stationary and ephemera collection. Hope to photograph a wedding one day there. Such a beautiful event space where they hold regular artists markets.

This place is absolute magic. Mark is such an engaging person and brings life to the space! There were so many things to look through you could spend days entranced in the treasures mark has collected. Will absolutely be back.
Wonderful visit❣️ Jaw dropped when we walked into the store, but before that, you must ring a door bell for admittance. I thought maybe I should know the secret hand shake too 😆 It was like walking back in time when you get inside. Beautiful antique wooden cases for old stores, old printing presses, old papers, etc... Hope we get to visit again soon.
This place is amazing and they have a great friendly staff. It's like a walking back in time. All the cabinetry is amazing and the amount of material they have is insane. Tons fo cool old packaging, tins, labels, and more. Definitely a must see while in San Francisco!
