Make extra money. Trade in your old (not gold) for cash!

We all know that times are tough and we’ve seen the commercials about trading in your gold, jewels and other pirate’s booty for cold hard cash, but we at Antiquities International have another idea. Why not sell your off your “oh, these will be worth money someday,” items.


Antiques, collectables, vintage memorabilia and autographs can bring in a lot of dough and Antiquities is the bakery. This not-so-subtle store is more like a museum of music, movies, historical and political and classic Americana memorabilia. Toby Stoffa ‘s Antiquities houses one of the largest collections of refurbished pinball, arcade, candy and cigarette machines, plus numerous restored cash registers, scales, Victrolas and other antiques. This mega-gallery also has movie props and vintage and collectors’ items including Star Wars figurines and Ron Lee Disney™ figurines. 


Not only does Stoffa’s empire consist of some of the most rare and special autographs, but because she has been in the business for over 27 years, she has built incredible relationships in the antiques and memorabilia community. Therefore, she can tell you just by seeing emailed pictures of your Aunt Gertrude’s antique scale or your impressive collection of baseball cards how much they’re worth. And the best part is that Antiquities buys directly from collectors like you or will even sell your stuff for you on consignment.

Don’t have a stash in the attic? Now’s a great time to become a novice collector by perusing eBay and scouring yard sales for fantastic finds. You know what they say, one man’s trash is another man’s pay dirt!
Check out Antiquities’ website and write us if you have anything you think we might be interested in, and who knows, maybe you’ll see something you just have to have.

From the King of Rock to the King of Pop, Toby Stoffa is the queen of memorabilia in Caesars Palace.




It may be Caesars Palace, but Toby Stoffa is the queen of Antiquities International, a staple of the Forum Shops since 1992. This not-so-subtle store is more like a museum of music, movies, historical, political and classic Americana memorabilia. Not to mention all the modern day novelties of your beloved icons. From I Love Lucy mugs to Bob Marley throw blankets, there is something for every budget and preference. In fact, Michael Jackson was a friend and client of Stoffa's for 12 years and she was proud to give the dedication speech for his Las Vegas Star of Fame.




These autographs and historical treasures are not merely secured in Ziplock bags. Each piece gets the special treatment with artistic and detailed presentations. Antiquities does all of its own framing, using only the best museum-quality frames and UV-resistant plexiglass. Stoffa and her team understand that these are not only investment pieces, but also personal to each customer, so custom presentation and framing choices are always available.

 Not only does Toby Stoffa’s empire consist of some of the most rare and special autographs, but because she has been in the business for over 27 years, she has built incredible relationships in the antiques and memorabilia industry. Of course, all of her items are backed by lifetime certificates of authenticity from not only Ms. Stoffa but also from third-party expert graphologists, again, from Stoffa’s decades of antiques and autograph experience.

She has connections to finding the most incredible historical items such as a Civil War New York Seventh Regiments Officer's coat and tails from 1861. But, why stop there? Stoffa houses one of the largest collections of refurbished pinball, arcade, candy and cigarette machines, plus numerous restored cash registers, scales, Victrollas and other antiques.





The best thing about Antiquities is that the inventory is constantly changing, so if you cannot find your dream jewel in Stoffa’s impressive crown, there is a very good chance that she can track it down for you. Her expert team works closely with its clients fostering lasting relationships. In fact, most people who buy from Antiquities become repeat customers. After all, collectors collect!

So, whether you’re in the market for an Elvis Presley postcard or the King of Rock’s signed scarf, visit Antiquities International where queen of memorabilia Toby Stoffa reigns seven days a week.

From Abraham Lincoln to Zoltar the Fortune Teller

Antiquities has cultivated long-lasting relationships with collectors, historians and other reputable treasure seekers in the antiques and memorabilia world. Therefore, we have had decades of direct access to thousands of historical, celebrity and novelty items.

Looking for that one hard to find piece?

Contact us to help find the special items you need for your collection. Who knows, you may just find something you never knew existed, but now just have to own for yourself. 

Featured today is an Abraham Lincoln Autographed Military Appointment.
This is the actual appointment Abraham Lincoln signed appointing Hammond as Surgeon General during the Civil War! It is signed by President Abraham Lincoln, and Edwin Stanton as Secretary of War. This is a major document and to make it even more remarkable, on the back of the piece is William Hammond's actual membership certificate in the American Philosophical Society, dated and signed October 21, 1859. There is quite a bit of history that will be included with this piece. Also, framed on the left of the display, you will find the original shipping tube in which this document was sent to William Hammond by Abraham Lincoln!

For a little at-home fortune, you can have Zoltar the Fortune Teller. 
Impress friends, and learn your own fortune! This classic arcade novelty is perfect entertainment for your home or business. The machine takes one-dollar bills in exchange for the animatronic gypsy's advice. Zoltar's crystal ball lights up, his hand, head and eyes move as he speaks various fortunes. Then, a written fortune is dispensed from the machine. Perfect for a lobby or game room.

These are just two treasures from our vast collection.
