Now


& Then

 
Here's a very old picture of the site where our store is now. Our
best estimate for the date of this image is between 1914-1930.
The work done to convert these houses is truly amazing.
I'm not sure it is even done today. Basically, they "raised"
the old 1st floor (and above) on jacks, and inserted retail space in its place.
The original cellar was left in tact, and numerous column supports were added as seen above.
Then, approximately 50 years later, we became the tenant in 1978.
You can click the image to enlarge.
E-mail us if you can ID the truck, and from that or anything else
nail down the year.
Special note to Alan Moon: The sign on the panel truck says,
"Expert Hat Cleaning" ..... Wer Hat Mehr  indeed!



What's new & coming soon
to our Pittsburgh Store:
For various reasons, many items that we stock in our store are not for sale on the web. For example, many wooden games 
like Crokinole, Go, other Classic games, and especially CHESS need to be seen, touched and compared to recognize the
quality & workmanship. A picture can be very misleading, so stop in and browse.

A final restock of Letters from Whitechapel until a new company grabs it. (Mfr is going out of business)

Get Bit a NEW Card game 2-6 players. Great filler, fast play & easy to learn. Cute bits representing swimmers trying to get to shore before the shark piece tears you apart piece by piece in hangmanlike fashion.
