What a great sounding shop! I looked it up and saved for reference and hope to go someday. Thanks you for the story and introducing a wonderful quirky place. And I'm getting the book by Greg King as well. My husband just read another book, The Wild Trees, by Richard Preston and this sounds like a good companion to that. While waiting for your own book on Trees.... I love your new It's Good To Be Here so thank you for starting it. I always look forward to your emails!
Delightful! Your newsletter always makes me smile. I had sent one to my sister a week or so ago, and she wrote back today, “I looked up Amy Stewart, she is a hoot!” We’ll be doing a future buddy read of one of your books!
Excellent! Thank you for creating and sharing such a fun and illustrative narrative on these wonderful oddities and those who collect them. Love your sketches... particularly the brothel matches. Delightful read on this nearly full moon evening.
Perfect post for this time of year. Reminds my of Ripley’s Odditoriums.
The Heddy Lamar story always floors me! The “A Mighty Girl” blog has a neat mini bio of her and some other multitalented women throughout the ages.
More than anything I deeply wish to have an Odditorium store and museum. Would there be anything more fun?
Loved this tour!!! Love your posts!
Thank you!

Nice to have Greg king at powell’s.
Definitely!
What a fun report, thank you!
So glad you liked it!
Creepy stuff always fascinates me. Your museum story reminds me of the voodoo shops in New Orleans. Tons of odd and creepy things! 👻 👽 🧙♀️
yes, I'm always up for looking through a shop like that!
What a wonderful surprise. I am delighted to be receiving this. Thank you.
Well thank you, I am delighted that you're delighted!
So very cool! Thank you!
