About

Part museum, part rock-n-roll thrift store, Johnny Angel's Ginchy Stuff is a must see for any music lover. The namesake of the museum, and Johnny Angel and the Halos, has been collecting all sorts of music and entertainment-related memorabilia and keepsakes throughout his career, going back to the 60s.

The museum portion boasts autographs and pictures from almost every era and genre you can imagine, with some truly impressive items on display. The other side has an immense collection of some of the most random things for sale, all under the watchful eye of Johnny himself.
