About me: We opened in December 1996 in what we like to call a "cozy" space. We have since moved twice and are now firmly entrenched in the heart of Central Square, the best neighborhood in the Boston area, right across the street from the famous Middle East night club.
We like to call the shop a pop culture superstore, stuffed to the gills with new and vintage items of a particular nature. If you dig pinup girls, robots, Mexicana, 50's kitchenware and cowboys you'll be right at home.
we also make a lot of our stock ourselves so it is possible to custom order all kinds of fab stuff.
come on by the shop or check us out on the web at www.buckmerc.com.
below you will see just a few of the images that are available on our products and a few of the products themselves.
Who I'd like to meet: People with a sense of humour who see the point at NOT shopping at the Gap, Starbucks or Wal-Mart.
Howdy everyone...Miss Tess & The Bon Ton Parade will be playing their first show ever at the Regatta Bar (Charles Hotel, Harvard Square) with special guest James Rohr on piano. This is an important gig for us and we could really use your support! Thursday, Oct. 9 @ 7:30pm, $12. Tix available at www. theregattabar. com

Please come and see us?

The Paradise Lounge

Boston, MA 02215
From The Sonics to The Cramps and beyond, party like it's 1969 with blown out cuts from the fiercest animals in rock n roll!
DJs Mary Widow and J. Cannibal spin RAW & RARE 60s punk, garage, hard psych, international surf, psychobilly and scuzz. Plus cheap pool, go-go dancers and cult/horror films projected all night long!
We're
throwing a pool party on Sunday, but you can leave your bathing suit at home! Get
your mind out of the gutter, kids it's a Burlesque Billiards Bash at Flat Top
Johnny's!
For only $5 you can play pool all night for free, while the booze
flows freely and the tunes play sweetly! Mix and mingle with fans and members of
your favorite burlesque troupe!
This event is being filmed for a short documentary
on The Boston Babydolls. It would mean a lot to us if the place was crammed full
of happy, smiling people, playing pool!
