Okay crazed fan if you were in adoration of Blinky I don't think this is a place to go worship a clown. Rather it is an amazing nook to stumble upon a sanctuary that Blinky has preserved himself. I walked in and was transported to another, well time, and place. Despite another review I read here, Blinky had a big smile in spite of an oxygen tank, answered all my questions and offered extra help and ancedotes. Like anyone I am sure he has good and bad days. I fell in love with the space. He is an obvious music lover (various jazz and 30's era musicians were being played when I was in) and historian and really the best way to see the shop is to stand in one place (it is tiny) and take it all in. If you want a space that is in a linear order and everything has its place this may not be for you. If you want to discover living history go to Blinky's. As a plus packrat antiques is on this block also....

Pros: character, living history, great place to discover

Cons: not for those who like shopping to be orderly
