Joe Ley

Today I finally visited Joe Ley Antiques for the first time.  It was everything I had hoped for.  Eerie dolls that looked as if they belonged in a horror movie, bicycles hanging from the ceiling, and vintage beer signs galore among other treasures.  It was a museum of odd collectibles, and I will definitely be going back.  I didn't buy anything, but going just to look is fun enough for me.  If you're looking for something free and entertaining to do on an early weekend afternoon, I select going to Joe Ley Antiques on Market and just wandering around.

"Composition Mechanical Baby in Highchair-working order"  I don't know what that means or what it does besides look creepy as shit.  I don't want it to move.

Love this guy.

Every good antique store has weird clowns.
