My time at the Volo antique and thrift shops

[Jjpayne]

I was going to use pictures of the place in a question but there were so many things to share I felt it would do better as a mytake

This starts with me standing next to a real terminator prop used in terminator 2 sent from Florida

Before I go any further I should probably at least show you some parking lot pictures

'Its not very glamourous looking but it shows that it is on big property this auto museum and mall is in Volo IL and going back to the main building for a second, it was too much money with my budget to spend 16 dollars for a ticket but I can look at some of the things they offer and see the malls for free part of that was the terminator

Another part was the bat signal

and the animatronic beagles which they brought back to life for volo

They also had a showroom with classic cars for sale

but on to the free pictures, I will just let the mall pictures speak for themselves. I tried to get the right pictures that could give you an idea of the feel of the place

Its almost like it had its own culture unique to it, past junk and to something else. At first I thought it was junk but then you kind of get lost in it.... but I will leave you with some interesting toy and game section pictures

Wow! It bigger than Branson, Missouri antiques mall , it looks like I would have to get a motel to spend all day there. Lots of memories put there. And I'm only 55 years old. Great job 👍 on the pictures. And I'm not going to say you used up a lot of films to take some pictures. I'm thinking you used a digital camera?

[skyboy64]

[skyboy64]

[Jjpayne]

You could easily have spent a whole day but it's only open till 4pm :(

I was just in Branson recently and went to the Titanic Museum on the strip. There is a lot to do there for sure. We did go to one antique store but it was mostly all consignment stuff. Then we went to some Asian Buffet. Where is this antique mall? Next time I visit my sister I'll hit it.

Glad you enjoyed your trip and nice pictures.

If you return, try not to get terminated by the Terminator, kicked in the nuts by Betty Boop or ran over by the Batmobile.

[Jjpayne]

Fair enough :)

[SydneySentinel]

Ohh fun!! Thanks for sharing, JJ!

[NickiB]

I think i would have fun there

[NickiB]

Thanks for mho

[Jjpayne]

You are welcome!!!

[Daniela1982]

Wow, I could probably spend a whole day there just looking through the antiques and the old cars. This is in Hollywood? I have never even heard of the place before. I may have to plan a trip there. I guess I don't get to the LA area much. I just pass through it on the way to Lake Isabella.

[Jjpayne]

Hollywood would have more stuff this is in the state of Illinois near chicago

[Daniela1982]

All I saw on the sign was Hollywood. There is more than one Hollywood?

[Jjpayne]

It was a theme :) not a location

[VeggiePizzaDude]

Damn! Those cars are seeext! Wish you got a close up of those iron beasts I mean just look at them. Seriously just imagine being inside one of those things, do you have any more pictures maybe from the interior?

[Jjpayne]

Nope... But I'm sure you can look up the volo car museum on Google images

[OfDeath]

Some cool stuff there man. A lot of junk too lol.
I wonder which little knick-knack has gone unsold the longest.

[Jjpayne]

That would be a fun game to try to figure that out

[Lliam]

Looks interesting. I'd probably see a lot of things that brought back memories. hahaha

[SirRexington]

I have no idea what this this is but its random and I like it.

[Cactusqueen]

Oh cool! I love checking out the old stuff

[Jjpayne]

It's pretty fun!

[ChiTown33]

ThAt T2 prop is bad ass!

[Jjpayne]

And like I said it's real and came straight from the movie :)

[anonymityisbliss]
