Items we are looking for include:

Music & Media - Vinyl, CDs, Cassette tapes, VHS, walkmans, video game consoles & games, VHS players, transistor radios, turntables, album art

Vintage clothing - windbreakers, flannel, band tees (authentic), starter jackets, weird prints we swore we'd never wear again, denim...etc

Toys & Collectibles - action figures, dolls, video game merch, lunchboxes, weird plastic things our parents stepped on... you get the idea.

Pop Culture & Memorabilia - Cartoons, movies, TV, sports, mall culture, advertising relics, pins, patches, posters, magazines - if it looks like it came from a bedroom wall, locker door or record store, we want it!

Other stuff - Skate culture, retro accessories, analog tech, furniture and stuff that makes people say "Oh my god, I had this!"

 

If you use items from the 70s, 80s, and 90s to CREATE your own goods or create items that were popular during this time, this is also allowed. For example: VHS or video game table lamps, bowls made from records, SCRUNCHIES!, bedazzled items...etc.

OR

$120 - One 10x10 space - no tables included, you are responsible for bringing all your own display items and tables. Your space must be set up for people to walk INTO, not around - as there will be other vendors next to you. (Up to 2 spaces max)
