Paxton Gate - The Mission


If you think taxidermy is a dying art, go to Paxton Gate and take a class on how to stuff your own mouse. If that's a bit too hands-on, you can buy one dressed in a cute little outfit, in a shadow box. Paxton Gate also sells mounted bugs, animal skeletons fossils of all types, bell jars, pedestals and other decorative items for those whose taste leans towards the macabre.

I probably buy something here two to three time a month but have yet to buy any of the taxidermy items. It's one of favorite stores in the neighborhood, and it's fitting to have 826 Valencia next door.

Found your blog site from LinkedIn. The idea of a stuffed mouse is great. What about a stuffed ex?
