About the shop

Pink Elephant Antique Mall is a massive 30,000 square foot multi-vendor antique destination housed in a historic 1929 high school building on Route 66 in Livingston, Illinois. With 40+ vendor booths, the mall offers an extensive variety of antiques, vintage collectibles, memorabilia, and roadside Americana. Customers consistently praise the vast selection requiring hours to browse, with highlights including vintage license plates, carnival glass, nostalgic candy, and unique finds.
