Manager Cindy McMullen always provides a warm welcome!

A favorite browsing spot on the way to Comic Experience, The Other Shop is like your clean and neat Uncle Buck's basement. His stash of old Playboy mags would be filed by the Centerfold's hair color; his rabbit foot keychain collection sorted by size and color and hung neatly with cleverly managed hook-and-eyes.

During this visit, I fell in love with locally designed handmade pillows and funny stuffed animals made of patterned vintage fabrics and scored a ring I suspect was made by a designer I've always admired (I have to remember to look into that!) and a terrific vintage dress in a great print with swell buttons and a soft sateen finish for only $30. I now wish I'd bought the faceted black pearl necklace for $70, but at the time figured I'd leave a bargain for the next Betty. Right now everything is 20% off (a bi-annual sale) so I was even more delighted with my finds (Dammit, I really should have have bought that pearl necklace for my niece's graduation gift).

Cindy McMullen manages this collective of 14 dealers who each work in the store two days a month and take turns designing window displays. If you're a dealer or designer interested in renting a space, give Cindy a call at 415.621.5424.
