Editorial Review for Alamo Antique Mall – by Lise Harwin
Behind Locked Doors
The Alamo Antique Mall, in three floors of the historic Paul Anderson building, deals in quality, which is reflected in the goods and their prices. The first floor is filled with dishes, jewelry, and glass items, much of which is locked away in glass cases. Fortunately, the helpful staff is quick to unlock the doors, exposing a bevy of colorful pieces. Anyone with an eye for the Roadshow will thrill at the art glass and mission pottery.
Weight a Second
With 75 different dealers displaying their goods, you're sure to find some unusual pieces. A "Guess Your Weight Machine" ($1,750) sits next to a fainting couch ($525) on the second floor, and one dealer retails swords for all you samurai out there. Be sure to visit often, since what's here today is often gone tomorrow.

In September of 07 I was in downtown San Antonio for a wedding and happened to wander through this wonderful place. I saw a stunning old picture of the Virgin of Guadalupe that I thought I couldn't afford to splurge on at the time. In December, I had second thoughts and called them and it had been sold and returned and was even reduced in price. So i thought it must be meant for me. They worked with me to reserve it till I could get it back to Houston (which turned out to be quite an adventure) and they were always kind and accommodating. Lovey was especially sweet. It just got to me now in mid-January and I couldn't be happier. I will always make a point of stopping by there every time I go to San Antonio, and you should, too.
Pros: Huge selection and variety, wonderful staff
Cons: Parking is a little bit of a challenge, but worth it.
