About

My wife and I are both long retired and over the years we’ve collected many types of antiques and other objects. We have purchased from auctions, thrift shops and numerous online sites but much of what we have was inherited from parents and friends who have passed away.

Our primary focus at this stage of our lives is to pass on the items we’ve collected to a new generation along with the knowledge that goes with them. Hence this website.

We live in an old house (shown in the header above – almost 200 years old) in Whitby, Ontario (just East of Toronto) which we purchased as a fixer-upper more than 50 years ago. We have restored, renovated, added on and updated it so that it will be 3 separate heritage apartments

We’ve sold more than 2,000 items on Ebay and Etsy over  several years but this website is a new venture. 

The transition is a largely manual process and somethings aren’t landing properly, so if you see anything that seems ‘off’ or wrong, please let us know at email@oldwhitby.ca.

There are about 200 items here now and we’re adding about 100 more every month so keep coming back. In the meantime if there is something in particular you are looking for send us an email – we may have it. 

Also please sign up for our newsletter. When we’re a bit better organized we’ll be sending out regular messages about new items, specials, etc
