The Philadelphia Print Shop, now in its 40th year, contains a trove of antique maps of local counties and municipalities as well as cool old-timey posters, historic prints and rare books about whatever strikes her fancy: animals, train travel, fine art, botanicals, the Wild West, the World Wars, you name it,

And we received a very nice review on Google:
Such a wonderful space, with a treasure trove of gorgeous prints. I brought them an antique print of Philadelphia that had been in my family for generations. But truthfully I never appreciated the print, and kept it stored for years. I reached out to David for guidance. I brought the print into the store and was truly overwhelmed by their knowledge. I ended up leaving it on consignment and in under two months it sold. The advertising and research they did on the print far surpassed my expectations. As a result the print sold for a remarkable price to someone who has a true passion for early Philadelphia prints. I cannot recommend this store highly enough.
