Wild Bill Nostalgia Center. Wild Bill's Nostalgia Center

A fantastic shop stuffed with a variety of strange and wonderful stuff, ranging from scorpion necklaces to Magic 8 Ball telephones. It's hard to say what's more amazing -- the inside or the outside. The outside walls are adorned with celebrity icons (Hendrix, Marilyn Monroe) and side show art. There's also a VW bug sticking out of the front wall under a huge image of the man himself, Wild Bill.
