Lost Eras has easily become one of my favorite shops to explore; hidden just outside of Chicago, it stretches far and narrow, crowded with lost treasures. Walking through it, it’s hard not to begin imagining the stories of the objects that turn up in its walls, and the people that once held them. Not to mention the building itself is a piece of history, as in the 1920’s it was home of the night club the “Club Detour” which had many artists play in it’s halls such as Louis Armstrong, Count Basey and Ella Fitzgerald.
