Collectors of all ages find treasures at Willmar's Antiques on 1st

From the outside, Antiques on 1st is unassuming. Tucked into the corner of a modern strip mall in Willmar, the shop leaves a lot to the imagination from the outside. But just inside the door, the friendly faces of owners Phillip and Jodie Schultz welcome customers to explore the space they've transformed into a mini antique mall. While the couple owns the shop and maintains part of the inventory, 32 antique dealers bring a mix of eclectic items into their booths. Phillip and Jodie Schultz, owners of Antiques on 1st, greet customers with a smile at the front of their shop at 1807 1st St. S., in Willmar, Minnesota.

You might find a vintage Barbie doll, an autographed photo of an Elvis impersonator, an antique fishing lure or a piece of carnival glass to complete your collection.
