These people obviously don't know what they're talking about because they're not from here. The best of New York vintage shopping or the hunt for items appealing to more esoteric tastes was over and done with by 1997 to be exact. And that's a fact.

And the vintage items this store carried were so much more exciting too!! From various authentic Victoriana to Roaring Twenties attire, the musty smell was intoxicating. At this latest location, I noticed a remarkable decline in variety and a graduation to clothing of later eras which, I suppose, generate more money. So good riddance, I say! At least Reminiscence is one store which has remained consistently crappy in its theme throughout the decades. I remember when Love Saves The Day closed and I'm actually very pleased with its New Hope location because the feeling is the same and even intensified. Sure it's an overpriced tourist trap, but I support this establishment nonetheless for being as I remember it to be. So what I'm saying is this: Due to the rising cost of rent, many of these vintage stores downgraded into '60s / funky '70s junk shops before closure and relocation. I prefer to see this place close because it's lost the feeling and its contents have changed so much. One word: consistency. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-74554539615021558592015-03-14T15:43:37.004-04:002015-03-14T15:43:37.004-04:00Reminiscence is long gone from 23rd Street.Reminiscence is long gone from 23rd Street.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-334222395103357492015-03-12T21:54:07.185-04:002015-03-12T21:54:07.185-04:00Great place.

I'm surprised it held on this long and in that part of town which over the last several years has become a real corporate-boring-ville. I would usually go in there to browse since they had records, but every time I would I could only think that the store's days were numbered.<br /><br />This is the city we live in. Very sad. It's like unceremoniously dismantling a great work of art that has stood in one place for generations and generations.<br /><br />Oh well.

You can find all kinds of unique and colorful pieces in there. My favorite was a mod 60s shift dress in large blocks of purple, orange and yellow. This is a prime example of a small business worth saving.Laura Goggin Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517481509431547970noreply@blogger.com
