While walking the back streets of Leadville I noticed this old antique shop. Was the building just an antique itself or was the shop still doing business. Well on some afternoons it does open, which was confirmed by a neighbor but not before 12 noon. What afternoons? Beats me. There was a phone number so I guess you'd have to call to find out. Could be a very interesting store to get inside but I wasn't hunting for antiques, just photos.

What an interesting building. I'll bet you could get all kinds of interesting photos inside the building if/when you have the opportunity to go back when they are open.

I've stopped a couple of times passing through Leadville in the afternoon. No luck. I guess if I really wanted to get inside I'd call the phone number & arrange a visit. But Leadville is not "around the corner." Thanks for taking a look.
