I'm a broadcast Camera Operator, Film Maker and collector with very similar taste to Phill's. I first learned of "Dr Russell" from watching an episode of "Desert Collectors". Your beautifully shot and edited film has reacquainted me with him. I think it's just superb. I can't fault it. I am now enjoying the episodes of "World of Curiosities" and look forward to more! (I think I definitely need to travel west to meet Phill one day and hang out in the Imaginarium.)
@@potrzebie74 Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and for the kind words! I’m sure Phill would love a visit and so glad you enjoyed the documentary/series. Brendan
I remember the first time I stumbled across this place! It was amazing, I could spend hours in there. I was greeted at the door by a rather curious looking optometrist kit and most interestingly post cards from a long time ago. It was nice to stop and read what was happening so long ago. Then there was a pile of porcelain dolls legs which my grandfather kept similar in his japanese puzzle box. There really is something for everyone. How wonderful to learn more about this place and it's quirky owner. What an interesting man. I think I will just have to wander back down now. Thankyou for the video.
@@vaavaablcksheep thank you for sharing, I felt the same when I first entered The Imaginarium. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for our little series follow up ‘World of Curiosities’ coming soon!
Don't mean to be a downer but I wanted to visit his store again while I was in the neighbourhood for a work lunch today, and I had some time so I tried to find the place. Then google told me he had close down last year and was trying to make it more online while he travelled overseas looking for more antiques to collect.
@@mrfriendlyguy Sadly due to rent increases for time being Phill has closed the shop. He will be at Artisans & Collectors Market Nov 30th, Dec 1st and also sells in Donnelly’s Auctions. Hopefully a new shop next year!
❤ the positivity and the heart felt warmth !!! And yes it is an awesome antique store 🙌
Thank you for watching! Please subscribe for our follow up mini series, coming soon 🙂
