Past Image

Owner Willy Ong set up his this vintage store, stashed away in a forgotten mall, 21 years ago and hasn’t looked back since. His stock arrives weekly from places like Hong Kong, London and cities in the US and Australia, which keeps things moving and never boring. The tiny space is crammed full of antique vinyl records, china sets and, of course, toys. Among the highlights we found were a 1949 Popeye wind-up toy ($2,000), a 1975 Charlie Brown jigsaw puzzle ($20) and Homer Simpson robot ($60). Feel free to browse and fire any questions at the knowledgeable Ong. Our only grouse? It doesn’t stay open for long during the day, so make sure you get there before closing time.
