| - The Charleston Antique Mall is a really fun place, filled with all kinds of really interesting, unique merchandise. The place is huge, so it'll definitely keep you entertained as you walk around, and there's a little something for everyone--pin-up pictures, jewelry, tiki stuff, old casino memorabilia, cowboy boots and tooled leather purses, TV and movie merchandise, a lot of awesome mod furnishings... I even saw a taxidermied bat there on my last trip! The staff is really friendly and the booths are well-organized, especially considering the sheer volume of stuff there is! Some of the prices can be a little questionable, but that's typical of antique malls, in my experience.
I'm a big vintage clothing fan, so of course that's what I focus on. There's some vintage clothing and accessories throughout, but most of it is concentrated in three rooms--one for men's, two for women's. It's one of the better places to buy vintage in Las Vegas--the prices are halfway between Buffalo Exchange's and the Attic's, and I'd say the selection is comparable to the Attic's, maybe a little better. The pieces are really great, too--a lot of beautifully preserved, very glamorous clothing from the 50s and 60s. Even if you don't wear vintage, you'll have a great time looking!
I highly recommend a visit, whether you're a native looking for some new home furnishings or a tourist looking to see what Vegas is like off the strip.
