It was a cold and windy Sunday in January when Scott Garvie and his daughter decided to go antiquing. One of their stops was the 15,000-square-foot Historic Burlington Antiques and Art Emporium in Burlington City, N.J. While going up and down the aisles, the two stepped back in time, seeing vintage items from the 1950s and 60s, taking Garvie back to his childhood. They viewed items from the early 1900s and earlier 19th century antiques. Other items, such as Cracker Jack toys from the early 1930s, early cameras from the turn of the 20th century, coins from the 1800s and 1900s, early telephones, early advertising signs, and too many other items to list were all looked over and for sale. Suddenly, Garvie saw an old carpenters tool chest that bore his fathers initials, AG, and the year 1953 was carved on the top. After a minute, he recognized it, sent a photo to his sister, and soon after, bought the toolbox/chest. The dealer who was selling it was in the shop. It turns out he purchased it at an auction in the area a couple of months ago. Garvies sister was excited about the find, and he decided to give it to her as a present. His family heirloom has now been returned to the family. With 60-plus active dealers at the Emporium, you never know what you might find. The Emporium is open six days a week, closed Mondays, and located at 424 High St., Burlington City, N.J. Happy antiquing!
