The Archive

This place is definitely in our favorites now if we are in the area. The staff was super sweet. And they just have some crazy amount of interesting stuff. It is definitely a dig and find mission when going there. It's really fun and something different. Looking in file cabinets, boxes, and displays. I felt like I just wouldn't be able to get through everything in hour. We didn't even get to second floor this time.

We try to make a few trips out a year. If you love rummaging and hunting for all books and ephemera, this place is for you. Huuuuuuuge with lots of rooms. The upstairs is also packed, usually everything $1 each. Sometimes you can fill a bag for a few dollars. Owner and help are easy going and fun to talk to. It's obviously what they love to do.

Prepare to spend hours here, it's pretty awesome

Beautiful old books with stories to tell. First time here today and I was blown away with the selection and range. Thought I only spent 20 minutes in here - it ended up being an hour and a half. Will definitely be back. Everyone in there super friendly and helpful! Thank you guys again. Loved everything I got - I hugged them all lol

Different shop but in an amazement. So much to look at plus they have their online auctions. Fun place!

Very cool, one of a kind place. If you are looking for old media of any kind (books, magazines, photos, papers, CDs, DVDs, albums, etc.) this is the place to go!

the archive has a great selection of books, cds, dvds, and other stuff. love the vibe in here 10/10 will visit again.

The sale was great! We got so many books! Great service!

This place is a true gold mine of vintage goods, ephemera, nik-naks and forgotten treasures. Easily lives up to its name. The staff is pleasant and helpful. You could spend days if not weeks here, and still not have enough time to truly scour the whole place. If you're a fan of old magazines, books, ads, posters, prints, war-time memorabilia, vintage family photos, or just want a place to dig through cheap CD's, tapes, vinyl, VHS's and DVDs, you will love this place. Just make sure your afternoon is clear and beware it smells like a dusty attic.

I’ve been going to The Archives for over twenty years and it holds a special place in my heart. It’s one of my very favorite places to visit and stay for hours. Dale is a dear and has always been kind to me even as I came out as trans eight years ago. He’s never once misgendered me and I feel completely safe there. Please go check out this local treasure. There’s no place like it anywhere. Love it. If I could give more than five stars I would. ❤

If you enjoy books of any kind, you will not be disappointed.

If you are interested in local history, you are sure to see something you to peak that interest.

Comics ✔ Records ✔ Antiques ✔ Incense ✔ Options ✔

And, the second floor has MORE BOOKS all for between $1-$5. Remember to get up there should you visit.

The only problem is time, keeping track of it after entering this shop. So please give yourself some leadway should you visit and maybe set an alarm if you have other obligations.

I love this place. Thank you!

Awesome place to search for history and local treasures, give yourself time

Contacted the auction side of the business to sell a variety of pokemon cards. I had no idea how to sort/categorize the hundreds of cards my kids had accumulated over the years and I was looking for a way to get the most out of what I had. The Archive was able to put the cards together in lots that yielded the best results. They were great to work with and I can't imagine that I would have gotten more if I tried to sell on my own. Highly recommend.

It's a really fun place to look around. Plus, the little dog is so friendly and loves being petted. Magazines and newspapers from the 50s up to today and all kinds of other nostalgia.

Great place to look for those unique books!

Auction site was awesome! Tank was so cool. I can't wait to bid more with you guys :)

Real nice and accommodating people with the products you are looking for.

Great place. Dale was very friendly and he has a large selection of books. Definitely worth checking out. And while you're there, make sure to give some love to Dolly!

The staff knows everything they have and believe it or not, they know where it is. Very interesting place, if they don't have the book your looking for it doesn't exist.
Keep an eye out for Dolly, she is awesome

Hands down the best online auction I have dealt with. Besides having cool stuff, they really try to keep shipping costs low. I recently won an item from them that WAS as pictured but wrote to Scott to ask him to look for a missing part that I did not catch was not in the picture. He went above and beyond to make me happy - even though it was not the fault of the auction. Highly recommend them!!!
