#HumansofCamden — Johnnie Hawkins

“I saw thousands of people from around the world visiting Camden, so it seemed the perfect place to open a vintage toy room in the basement. I sell vintage toys because I love toys and I’ve collected them all my life. But, the world has changed compared to 44 years ago. Now, children’s toys are digital and electronic, which is a shame. From the 1960s to the 2000s, toys were toys, and our shop is a great for customers wanting to recapture their youth and find some of the best vintage toys that have ever existed. I can’t think of anywhere else in the UK with the right vibe to sell these products, Camden’s quirky nature just fits.”
