for the record. . .

we've changed our name. . .

You may still call us "the antique shop" or "the antique shop on the square"--it doesn't matter to us--one of our dealers insists on calling us Trojan Antiques so you might hear this when you call us.

We are still located at 66 West Court Square, Troy AL 36081

Ann and I decorated a tree at The Johnson Center using vintage plastic Santa and reindeer ornaments. Snow covered every branch and ornament--we made a mess but it was beautiful!

Christmas Open House was successful in spite of the cold, wet weather.

But now it's time to move on to another season--Valentine's Day or "V Day" as it is affectionately called. We are all decorated and in the "heart" spirit! Check back for updates!
