If you don't like clutter and chaos, this isn't the place. But if you're okay with that, this is a…read moretime capsule step into multiple different worlds. Records, books, posters, machines, furniture, newspapers, paintings, bullets, typewriters, vases, you name it - all across the shelves ceiling and yes, floor. Just be careful and understand where the owner is coming from, and it's a fun time. Ricky even played some rocking records, and I left the store with my friends with an 8 dollar 1966 Rolling Stones vinyl record.

Exploring Murphy's Curiosity Shop is like falling down the rabbit hole in Alice & Wonderland. You…read morenever know where you're going to land, but it's quite the trip! If you are looking for a specific item, Ricky will help you find it, though it may take a bit of time, as the shop is not logically organized and challenging to navigate. But if you're not in a rush, it's super fun to explore. A few years ago Ricky helped me find a gorgeous antique end table; more recently Ricky found a frame for a painting and framed it for me... he has a big collection of frames and artwork. Then he helped me find a marvelous collection of interesting containers, from old candy tins to used fancy cigar boxes (I use them for gifts of dried fruit I preserve or other things). Yesterday I left with two beautiful teapots of different styles and sizes. I've posted some photos of my Murphy's treasures below. This weekend I'll take a look at fountain pens for my daughter. I'm sure I'll return many more times for all kinds of interesting things, useful and decorative. You're not going to get flea market prices here but Ricky tries to be fair and will look up the standard going price of an item he's not sure about. So if you can leave your need for tidiness and order behind, text Ricky that you want to come, open your mind to all kinds of collectibles and get ready for an adventure.

How sad to see this Marin County Jewel close. I can't understand why, with numerous Brick & Mortar…read morevacancies the landlord would raise the rent astronomically and lose this Marin County Institution! Susan was great and a Bay Area treasure. I entered her early teddy bear contests back in the late 70s and wish her well in retirement! As I read through reviews here 98% are 5 star positive but I see a few that made me realize what Susan also put up with over the years. Completely clueless basic mall zombies that called the store dusty or cluttered when it was a beautiful artful well themed museum of antique toys and bear travel (the theme of her books). With everything for sale, how much fun! One off base reviewer even thought she didn't get proper service because she was black, how precious, off base and hackneyed is that complaint. Especially if you know one of Susan's most popular books and matching teddy bears (she designed with the Steiff Company) were all about traveling in Africa! Those that got it will really miss this unique toy store that was in a class by itself. Thank you Susan for 40 years of preserving the lost craftsmanship of our past!

A treasure of a toy shop with toys antique and new, curated and displayed with imagination and…read morecare. Where else will you see part of an old wooden ship loaded with stuffed animals, a Noah's Ark with a turkey in charge? Or an Egyptian sarcophagus from a set design for Indiana Jones next to a sizeable camel stuffie. Or an antique Underwood typewriter in its case or a set of illustrated journals of a bear who has traveled to Paris, to Egypt, to the Chelsea Flower Show in London, to Africa! A must visit for everyone! A you must go soon as Mme. Susan has seen her rent quadrupled and survival is challenged. Please support her!
