This place is the real deal for top of the line automotive, petrolianna, vintage advertising, and overall Americana. Period. Restored items are as near to perfection as you could get, and the number of items that are so scarce as to be only one of a handful left in the world, is amazing! The gentleman who owns the business is, as another commenter posted, a "real deal vintage guy" who was blessed enough to have lived and worked during a portion of this golden age of American pride, craftsmanship, and when even commercially functionally machines, we're designed as pieces of art.
Despite my only looking around with an eye for future purchases, he took a great deal of time to talk with me, educate me about some of the rarer pieces, and share some of his own experiences in the hobby. He is a genuinely nice, down to earth person who cares about taking time for others and ensuring these treasures are not forgotten. Ditto for his staff as well. I will definitely be back when I again have a space for some toys.

John was a great guy to work with. As a matter of fact, after calling two other dealers leaving messages for a call back - he was the only one who returned my call.and fast too! He was real and honest. I had already checked on-line to see what I thought my slot machine would be worth, and he was VERY fair! In a matter of days we made a deal and I couldn't be happier!
