Catalpa Trading Co

Really cool little shop filled with tons of great stuff. Felt like a kid again. Staff was really great and friendly. Definitely will be back again to spend more time in here.

I really liked this place. So out of character for the area. Also signed as The Magic Shop. It sells all the junk advertised in comic books of the 50's - 60's. Just fun to walk thru. Highly recommend.

A nice little shop for joke novelties, magic paraphernalia and toys. The real magic (no pun intended) is when they have a magic show in the back of the shop. There was not one this time, but 2yrs ago we caught a show just before it started by chance. It was great!! A nice little theater steeped in old magic banners like the side show Era, and a very good magician that was very fun to watch. We didn't plan on catching the show, but it was too interesting to pass up. Glad we did. We all had fun and built a great memory. I should have checked when the show was this week. I would give the place 3 or 4 stars for the nostalgia of the merchandise, but the show bumped it up to a solid 5.

This establishment is definitely a premier destination in Berlin, Ohio. It is simply brimming with nostalgic gifts/collectables, classic practical jokes, and amazing magic tricks. These features alone make the shop a standout attraction but the true draw has to be their incredible, professional magic show. Staged in an intimate theater (in the back of the storefront) the show features a modern resurrection of the classic illusions of magic! Young and old alike will be thoroughly mystified and entertained. Be sure to stop in during your next visit to Amish Country!

This place Is awesome. They were doing a magic show and we went to it and it was pretty cool

I love stopping in here. There is always some nostalgic treasure to find and if you're lucky you will see a magic trick or two!

Very fun little shop. They have tons of items. They also do magic shows which I am disappointed to have missed out on when we were last there. We had to leave before it started. Will definitely go back when we can.

If you like magic you MUST visit while in the area. The owner was just the greatest and he made my day as soon as we walked in. The magic show was fantastic!! Just so so much cool things to see and buy. I had to buy a tshirt before I left just because I truly enjoyed it that much and had to have a piece to remember it by.

Worth the stop! This place was very fun and the fellow that owns it is very friendly and personable... He's an entertainer, so any reviews you read that state "the guy wouldn't leave us alone" don't understand this fellows giftset... If he didn't want to invest energy/time into you, he probably wouldn't be a very good entertainer, right!?!?! Something I noticed during our 1 hour visit (so much to see), was he goes out of his way to greet everyone... He then pops up throughout your visit to entertain you! The store owner and his store are top notch and you/ your kids will not regret the fun break you made for them during your "not necessarily kid friendly a majority of the shopping day"! We will be regular visitors every journey to Amish country we make!

Such an amazing quaint place! Sooo much stuff jam packed but so amazing! Take your time! We were lucky enough to meet The Magician Madrhikin himself! We loved talking to him about past times and seeing his love for magic! That honestly made the trip!

They now have a beautiful venue called Madrhikan's Theater of Magic! I just took my daughter and niece there today for a 2 hour show. My 17 year old daughter said it was "Awesome!" Family friendly and great humorous entertainment, as well as spectacular illusions that will amaze you. An excellent value, don't miss this while visiting Amish Country!

For me, no trip to Berlin would be complete without a visit to this store. As an amateur magician myself I can almost always find a new tri k or prop I do not have yet. Their selection of vintage and novelty candy is sure to brin]g out the kid in everyone. Ray and his staff are always fun to talk to and are sure to put a smile on your face. On my next visit to Berlin I will be sure to catch the live magic show. _

Wonderful place to visit. More than just a store. They will demo any of the magic tricks and recommend good ones for you and your family.
Be sure to see the magic show. Family friendly show. The shows honors the great era of magic.

Creepiest and weirdest place ive ever been. Too much happening at once. Old fella offered to show me his secret room, I exited shortly after. All in all a good time. Wouldn’t take children in there as they may not exit, if not, notify local deputies!

This is a MUST SEE in Berlin. Walked in needing some magic acts for children and walked out with exactly what I needed. No high pressure. The "Magician" was very passionate about his trade and did not try to over sell me on items I'd never use. Was very refreshing, plus entertaining!

A step back in time to find all the gadgets and toys seen in cereal boxes and comic books from the 50s and 60s. Great folks own the store and stock it with new and vintage novelties. Also many collectibles from vintage TV shows! If you can't find something you like here, you're not looking!

What a great little shop! Want to go back to see what we missed

This store is amazing. A magician owns the place. All kinds of magic tricks for sale. Lots of games and gag gifts. A fun place to enter. We always stop in and buy something.

This is wonderful place right in the heart of Berlin and all the shops.. the games and gag gifts will take your memories back in Time with reasonable prices friendly staff and even has live magic shows

This is a fun little shop that my kiddos love to stop at. The owner shows off some fun magic tricks and the kids always find a toy or trinket they can’t live without. 🙂
