JW Blast from the Past

Thrift & VintageVerified

About

JW Blast from the Past in Lakeside operates a single-vendor antique and vintage shop on Moreno Avenue, curating collectible furniture, mid-century decor, retro kitchenware, and estate-sale finds under one roof. The store's inventory of period pieces and local ephemera intersects with the archival mission of Lakeside Historical Society on Maine Avenue, where East County San Diego's heritage is documented through photographs, maps, and donated artifacts. Merchandise rotates through consignment intakes and estate acquisitions, with single-vendor curation ensuring each item is authenticated and priced before it reaches the showroom floor. The Moreno Avenue location positions the shop within Lakeside's secondary commercial corridor, sharing the neighborhood's resale ecosystem with CBC Thrift Store on Woodside Avenue. Inventory spans pressed-glass Depression-era serveware, cast-iron cookware, vinyl record collections, and solid-wood case goods from the 1940s through 1970s production eras.
