This place offers a wide assortment of 19th-century etchings, engravings, and maps, many of them antique (some are 400 years old), and all of them reasonably priced. Other outlets have minor displays of these collectibles, but this place has the finest. It's usually best to discuss your interests with Mr. Ramsey, the owner, so he can direct you to the proper drawers. His specialties include The Bahamas, Civil War-era America, and the history of African-descended peoples. He has a collection of military items, too. The shop also features a selection of primitive Haitian art.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
