January 2008 • Page 12 the NEW CENTURY COLLECTOR SHOP PROFILE: JITTERBUG ANTIQUES & TOYS

We have all heard the phrase “buying back our childhood”. Well, they were talking about Jitterbug Antiques & Toys. This place is fabulous. That big red fire engine you wanted when you were 5, they got it. That Barbie doll, along with all the cool things that go with it ……. They got it. Trucks, cars, tin soldiers, boats, trains & planes, whatever. You name it, they got it. Oh yeah, they’ve got other antiques too. But for Jitterbug, it’s really about the toys.

People come in from all over the world, some with great antique knowledge and others who have never been in an antique shop before. I really enjoy finding a wonderful item and selling it to someone who really appreciates it. I love it when people get excited to find something they have been looking for a long time.

Dee has a knack for digging out an endless variety of fabulous toys, and he’s able to do most of his buying for the shop locally. At one time relying on garage & estate sales, and auctions to buy good items, he now has many long time customers and others who just bring items into the shop to sell.

Along with his business at Jitterbug, Dee has been doing shows for about 20 years. He does a variety of shows in Utah, along with shows in California & . Dee say’s “Shows are a lot of work and expense nowadays, but they are fun. We enjoy the traveling, and usually turn shows into a mini vacation”. Dee Jackman & his mother Gwen, who helps watch the shop

When Dee Jackman met his wife Kay, she had already been a long time collector, and it didn’t take long for Dee to catch the bug. While Kay’s tastes were very eclectic, Dee caught the antiques virus with toys. In 1980 Kay took Dee to the Redwood swap meet, where he bought a 1934 Ford Coupe made by Hubley. It was green with black rubber tires, and he paid .50 cents for it. That was the start of Dee’s toy collecting. Dee loves trucks, trains & airplanes.

Jitterbug Antiques was the brainchild of Kay, who in 1983, after years of collecting, decided to give up her job in the insurance business, and do something she loved. Incorporating her eclectic tastes with Dee’s love of toys together they created one of Salt Lakes truly unique antiques shops.

First located in the antiques market at 251 So. State, a large building where each dealer owned his own store, in 1995 jitterbug relocated You won’t believe the toys at Jitterbug to their current location in the heart of Salt Lakes “Antique Row”, at 243 East 300 South. The shop is about 1000 square feet, with 600 feet dedicated to toys. Lionel, American Flyer & Marx trains, Wyandotte, Hubley, Tootsie, Smith Miller & Tonka cars & Trucks, and just about any kind of vintage toy you would hope to find. The balance of the shop is glassware, jewelry, vintage kitchenware and other antiques & collectibles.

Dee Retired from his job in the tire industry 1n 1995, and at that time took a more active roll in operating Jitterbug. When his wife Kay passed away in 1999, Dee continued running the shop with the help of his mother Gwen. Together they keep Jitterbug an interesting If you get a chance to be down town, take a few minutes and drop and fun place to shop. Dee tells me that he does not consider running by Jitterbug. You can have a little bit of your childhood back too. the shop a job; it’s more of a hobby. For Dee, it’s an absolute Joy, “It It’s a great shop, and well worth your time. is the only hobby I have ever had that pays for itself”.
