second-hand treasure - View this location on map bakersfield isn't big on tearing down old buildings; they just become reconfigured. a 1949 woolworth's storefront has been converted into the city's biggest second-hand store, and it is a tchotchke-hunter's delight. the store, now called the five and dime antique mall (661-323-8048), subscribes to the dictum that one man's junk is another man's treasure. here is the place to snag second-hand jewelry, poker-chip trays, world series of pool beer steins and kitschy cookie jars that andy warhol would have loved. a pristine royal typewriter was recently bought here for the obscenely low price of $35.
