This amazing shop is a time warp in a busy 2016 world. Stamp collecting seems to have faded out in the USA, but this store is worth poking into. The staff are dedicated and passionate about coin collecting, stamp collecting, and antique post cards. The shop looks untouched and could have looked the same in 1952.
I was given amazing help and found many gifts. It is clear that the proprietors know their business well. While Milan rushed around us outside, the store was like walking into a set from Hogwarts. There were items everywhere. Great for finding an unusual and historic gift to take home. Easy to find a piece of Italy or Europe for the folks back home here, with a unique historic touch.
Any stamp or coin collector would enjoy a visit. But I think the shop's appeal is broader than that. I stopped in on a whim, and was glad that I did. It is great to see that shops like this still exist. I am grateful to the owners. They have a great web site too, which is discovered upon returning home.
Thank you for bringing the old world hobbies back to life. The shop is two minutes from the Duomo Cathedral plaza. It is off of Via Spadari (near the Hotel Spadari) at the intersection with Via Cesare Cantu. read more
