Everybody has a memory, you know, like the ones that make you tingle every time you hear a familiar love song on the radio, or see an old toy that you cherished as a child, or smell the aroma of coffee brewing in a percolator. Those memories are tangible and powerful. Whether you were a child of the 30s when Roy Rogers was your hero, or a child of the 80s when the Red Power Ranger was your hero - we were all children once. Some of us will always remain children - even if only in our hearts! Whenever you venture into Antiques, Toys Collectibles & More, owned by Anna Tropea, those memories are renewed and relived in the most wonderful of ways.

Antiques, Toy Collectibles & More is a "packed-to-the-rafters" store where memories are found and made. Every corner is jammed with treasures, toys and tidbits of history, entertainment, function, fun and nostalgia. Whether you are a serious collector or an occasional treasure hunter, you will love this unexpected find on West Shore Road, across the street from Warwick Vets High School. There are collectibles and toys for tots and teens, and children of all ages.

This cozy gem of a find is filled with a wide array of both new and vintage toys, children's picture and comic books, kitchen gadgets and housewares, distinctive jewelry pieces, used DVDs and classic editions of magazines. You can also find unique porcelain figurines, glassware, china, and silver pieces. If you a fan of vinyl records (including 45's!), then come check out Anna's incredible selection of original Elvis, Beatles, Moody Blues and Beach Boys albums.

Antiques, Toy Collectibles & More also has a stock of Magic Cards, Pokeman, and Yu-gi-oh cards. Check out Anna's huge collection of new and used die cast Matchbox, Hotwheels, Johnny Lightning, and Maisto vehicles, including an extensive assortment of vintage and current cars from 1/18 to 1/87 scale, and vintage foreign HO-scale fire department vehicles.
