 What a find!! This book is fascinating, although not in perfect condition. It is cloth bound, and worn on all edges, the worst on the top and bottom.The name of the church it belonged to is stamped on the interior of the front cover.  This is a fabulously wonderful book called: POEMS by John G (Greenleaf) Whittier. The book is only in good condition, but for a 123 year old book, WHAT A FIND!! |

Be sure to leave your email address with us at the store, as we are now notifying our customers of storewide sales electronically. Storewide discounts will be at least 20% and up to 30% and possibly more off. Per our usual policy, Items already on Sale and marked Firm are not reduced by the sale percent. We just added a Sports memorabilia dealer to the shop, and he has lots of Minnesota Twins STUFF!! Our jewelry Department still does VERY well. There are also a couple of dealers offering Jewelry to wear once and give to the kids...it is that inespensive!! These same dealers offer some great hidden treasures to those willing to hunt. They rarely sort the jewelry, they would rather pass the savings on to folks who only need a "one day" piece, or the dealers, who "re-purpose" and up-scale simple jewelry to one of a kind art. Antiques Downtown also sells Caromel Colors paint, the desired paint of many of the furniture restoration artists at the shop. Our furniture leaves nothing to be desired!! We have every style, and shape you would ever want. I would say we offer the widest selection of distressed black furniture in the state of Minnesota. 
 Elk River is a sleepy little town located on the Mississippi river in Sherburne County of Minnesota. In 1995 Beth Ramsey opened Antiques Downtown on Jackson Street in Elk River. The building has seen a lot of history. It has been a Furniture Store, and because it was a furniture shop as well, the natural companion to the Furniture Store, was ....well.... a Mortuary... No Kidding! They built the caskets in between constructing the furniture. Sometimes, I really think I hear a ghostly creak or groan there.Prior to becoming Antiques Downtown, the building housed Johnson's Department Store. Being the kind of community that retains a lot of it's population, we see a lot of former clients of Johnson's come in saying just this: "I used to shop here when this was Johnson's". That alone is a fine tribute to Johnson's and their customers. Antiques Downtown is a multi-dealer Antique Mall. It is pretty much a co-op. There are three floors and approximately 50 dealers, leasing booths in the mall. Each dealer is responsible for merchandising and stocking their own booth. I have four booths and a couple of locked cases that I will talk about later. Antiques Downtown 309 Jackson St Elk River, Minnesota, 55330 763-441-1818 Hours: 10to 6 Monday through Saturday 12 to 6 Sunday
