A new project is now online. Listen to the sounds of those who remember a different time in our city's history. If you know of others who would be willing to share their stories, let them know about this project. There's nothing like hearing from those who were there!

Genie Abrams spent her early years in the City of Newburgh- and moved back a few years ago. As an author she has recounted those memories in a new book "Louey Levy's Greatest Catch", a work of fiction, but based on some real characters and real events.
We at the Palatine Shop are proud to carry the book. We have signed copies available at $15.95.

Celebrating Our First Anniversary, Saturday, December 5!
Newburgh has a rich history and as we've discovered over the past year, it's appreciated by many people, even those who have left long ago.
Our case is now packed full of antique Newburgh souvenirs. If you haven't visited us lately we've gathered quite a collection. We're continuing our successful limited edition postcard series. We're up to #44 and won't stop until we're up to #52. Check out our wall display. And click on the link at the left for the list of all of them so far...
Recently we were given the opportunity to offer some samplings of the work by a Newburgh business that's been getting some great press recently, Thornwillow Press. Their items are usually seen in high end retail shops in NYC, but through our shop, we now have a selection of holiday offerings that are quite impressive. Below is a photo of the folding table lanterns. They come packaged in these trifold envelopes and fold flat for shipping and storing. They make great gifts! We also have packages of 10 letterpress holiday cards with envelopes and great gift tags that also make incredible tree ornaments.
Last year we got many requests for the laser wand that lights our sidewalk in front of the shop after dark. Holography artist, Rudie Berkhout, developed these a few years ago. We're now stocking the Laser Wand, a laser pointer with a custom diffraction grating the splits the laser beam into galaxies of points of light. Currently there's a comprehensive exhibit of his life work in Catskill at the Union Mills Gallery, 361 Main Street, through January 10, 2010. This is the largest exhibit ever of his work and it will be moving on to museums around the world from there. His holography work is breathtaking!
We still have signed copies of "River of Dreams", the history of the Hudson River by Hudson Talbott, but they're going fast! We also have a selection of Mary Evelyn Whitehill's ever popular greeting cards, reproductions of the 1891 Nutt's Newburgh and the 1909 program. Great gifts for those who appreciate Newburgh's great history. Check out our offerings at the bottom of this site. Stop in on Saturday and say hello! Thanks for your business. We look forward to introducing several new items in 2010...
