If you grew up in a certain generation, the close ties to nostalgia from that time are hard to resist. I know that even as I grow older, I still look back on earlier times in my life with fondness. This connection is different for everyone of course. No matter what generation you grew up in, there’s one New Hampshire vintage shop that is sure to bring back memories and it’s a place where you can definitely lose yourself in.

R.S. Butler's Trading Company in Northwood opened in the spring of 1991 as the site of a once-a-week barn sale.
