It's been a long time my friend

In March 2011 we moved into our new place on Park street in Bristol and now we have a whole floor with a very eclectic mix of vintage. Ranging from beautiful 1950s pieces to lookin magazines and beano annuals . It is a treasure trove up there. Everyday we have new things arrive so regular visits are a must. Sadly the website is still out of action all this time later, but we are working on being able to open again soon.

Daft Cars


We sell the Top Gear Book Daft Cars, primarily because my Dad had the car on the front of the book when i was a kid, The Amphicar.

This was in the early 80's when they were already a bit of a rarity.

If I remember rightly there were only 7 working ones in the U.K.

It is easy to see why, Dad was always working on it and after every trip in it, it needed to be worked on again!

It always felt like it was sinking when it was going along in the water, and it actually did a couple of times . You also needed an enormous 4X4 to yank it back out of the water, which is not ideal.

For all of its faults it was great fun and exciting to go out in , not least because none of us including my dad could swim.

It certainly drew a crowd, though because it really did look like a triumph herald that had accidentally driven into the water and was somehow managing to keep going!

Christmas Cards

For the first time, this year we have added a Christmas Card section to the website . MOMA NY box sets of gorgeous elaborate and rather exclusive cards.
From a 3D Santa in an aeroplane to a marvellous

We also have several Modern Toss Cards which have always been a firm favourite in the shop.

If you are in the market for some downright rude Christmas cards with a good dose of Bah Humbug you will never go wrong with Dean Morris cards.
