Billy's Antiques & Props


So there's this store on Houston street in Manhattan that I love. Billy's Antiques and Props. [livejournal.com profile] raelala was actually the one to discover it, but it's just so wonderfully creepy, and Billy himself is quite the character.

Anyhow, I thought I'd compile some of the photos I've managed to amass from this place

It's completely awesome. We hit it up whenever we can, and Billy... while looking intimidating is a very lovely, sweet man.

You should definitely go!

Wooow. That place looks like it's bursting at the seams with stories.
Great little peek with the pictures :)

It changes all the time too. He's always got something new and he loves to show it off. One day it was a mint condition antique top hat, the other it was a Nazi Uniform from World War II.

The place is really really unique. The website (http://www.billysantiques.com/) is just as fun

And yeah, I don't think anyone is going to be buying that dildo for personal use.

My ABSOLUTE favorite picture of the dildo's is one [livejournal.com profile] raelala took of Billy holding one of them (http://www.flickr.com/photos/raelala/2957555116/in/set-72157602218788277/). Priceless!

You'd love it! If you're ever in New York you should definitely swing by: Houston and Elizabeth Street, one block west of Bowery. It's completely worth the visit!

Seriously weird. I'll have to check it out if I'm in the neighborhood.

Most definitely. It's a small but very trippy shop.
