If you work in film/TV production or design industry , for sure you already heard about…read moreuffnervintage, at least once. Uffnervintage is "The" reference for vintage clothing in the US for the last 25 years. The owner, Helen Uffner, is a sweet- heart that will make you forget that we are living in 2012. Her collection goes from 1820... She worked with movie like Titanic, Assassination of Jessie James, Out of Afirca... Unfortunately her show room is not opened for the public, but its defenitly a place to check if you have the chance to work in the industry.

I am a costume designer for theater and film, and I will say that Helen Uffner Vintage Clothing is…read moreone of the best sources in the country and certainly an indispensible resource in New York City. The collection is vast, the quality is excellent, and the range of sizes is terrific. It would be impossible to do a period movie or play without Helen Uffner. And don't be put off by "Long Island City". It's literally 10 minutes from Times Square on 5 different subways, 3 different subway lines; and is about 30 paces from the subway entrance.

In our short visit we determined which of us was a *villain*, found some very clever disguises, tried on a cape and tried to fly. It was a awesome time. Oh and this place is actually a learning center for the kids! Disguised as a store. So clever! The staffer/volunteer in front told us there are actually several of these shops set up across the country. ie: Pirate Supply Store in San Fran and the Bigfoot Research Institute in Boston.

My awesome little friend Max loved his evil blob containment device, and he still hasn't made it to the store yet. Brought a friend who was visiting from Los Angeles here the other Day and he was such a sport he tested out the cape on top of the cape tester machine. Given that he's a creative and works with tons of kids I figured the experience would be priceless. End result: it was. He ate it up. Can't wait to hear how much he loves the Time Travel Mart - in Los Angeles, and the Pirate Supply Store in San Francisco. Dave you're an incredible guy! Love the way your brain works, and how contagious your ideas are. http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/dave_eggers_makes_his_ted_prize_wish_once_upon_a_school.html Date Rating: 10 (This is the BEST place to take a person with a beating heart. Just take a peek into the tutoring room in the back with all of the happy kids and volunteers. If your date doesn't think you're cool because you know about this place - dump them immediately). Pick up Scale: N/A (Bring your own friends the people here are fun to talk to but not a place for mingling). Strong Suggestion: Take the train, walk a few blocks, enjoy the restaurants nearby. GREAT afternoon activity, lots of fun things to see and do nearby.

I don't have a little girl any longer but if I did I would surely take advantage of all the activities and merchandise in this store. The basics of the story is that Eloise is a young girl who lives in the "room on the tippy-top floor" of the Plaza Hotel in New York City with her nanny, her pug dog, Weenie, and her turtle, Skipperdee. I'm sharing photos I posted previously with my review. I was fortunate the day I visited I had the store to myself. I felt welcome and not pressured to make a purchase. I highly recommend for you and your children.

Despite going to college in the area and going to Lincoln Center so much, I admit I had no idea…read morethere was a Julliard Store until I started hunting Inciardi machines. Staff here were super nice, especially when I wanted to keep hunting more prints and need more tokens. The store itself is really a treasure trove of souvenirs, musically inclined tokens, and other items that would make great gifts. I picked up a little Bob Ross finger puppet for my FIL - they collect the artist ones of the finger puppet collection. I think I saw more selection here than at most museum gift shops. I'm so glad I stumbled on this place by accident by hunting prints because I can see myself coming in for random gifts for people now.

Over the past year, it has become harder to find anything here beyond standard repertoire. I…read moreordered a Delius piano solo that took eight weeks to arrive, and communication with the store was painfully intermittent with me having to follow up constantly. In the end, it would have been faster to order it myself online. More recently, I tried to exchange a gift I received, a biography (not a musical score), that I already owned. I simply wanted to exchange the biography, which was clearly unread, for a different one that was actually more expensive. I was happy to pay the difference. I even had the physical receipt. Both were full-price books, not discounted items. The exchange was declined under their umbrella policy. I understand having a policy in place to protect publishers, but it would be clearer to simply state "All Sales Final on Printed Materials." Instead, the language references "copyrighted materials," which suggests there may be exceptions, when in practice there are not. I want to support a neighborhood brick and mortar music shop. But when selection is limited, flexibility is minimal, and communication is inconsistent, it becomes difficult to justify staying loyal. I am disappointed to say, that I will likely purchase my scores and books elsewhere going forward. At times, the store feels oriented more toward internal or institutional purchases than toward the musicians and readers who live in the neighborhood.
