Before owner Art Modell moved the Browns to Baltimore 30 years ago ago, the Browns played in old Cleveland Municipal Stadium (which was actually designed and built to attract the Olympics). At the open end of the Stadium -- where the baseball bleachers were located -- were the cheapest seats available for a Browns game. Usually overflowing with loud, obnoxious, and seriously drunken spectators, it evolved into a home-field advantage as the noise level made it difficult for the road team to hear their quarterback's signals. This area ultimately became the place to be. Someone began barking and throwing dog biscuits on the field; it caught on and the bleacher area became known as the Dawg Pound. When the Browns returned in 1999, the new owners tried to maintain the tradition, but the new stadium just didn't exude the same charisma (in other words, it was too nice). 

Anyway, Emerson produced this nice 3'x5' flag which epitomized the spirit of the old Dawg Pound. It's a very nice silk polyester flag, with their "Poly-Tuf" header and o-rings. It's surprisingly durable, as we see some of the old versions still flying in the area during football season from time to time. A wonderful gift for anyone who attended games in the Dawg Pound (if there are even any survivors) ...

A few things to know about Jeff's Curiosity Shoppe:

Welcome aboard! We're delighted you stopped in. But first, a brief history lesson:

We began with a single store -- Jeff's Vintage Treasure in 2018 -- with Shopify and sold mostly vintage sports products. Because some customers wanted newer items as well, that same year we added a second web site
-- Jeff's Treasure Chest -- to the mix.

The second store did well, and we became obsessed with other "niche" stores and began to accumulate inventory for them. The desire to add these other options led us to the decision in 2022 to eventually consolidate everything under one roof, which also resulted in the new name. You'll notice some of them on our home page, and that's only about half of what we have planned (unless we come to our senses first).

It will probably take quite a while to list everything we have, so check back often, and we're always open to your suggestions -- really!

As far as store operations go, some key points:

1) Shipping: Right now, it's U.S. only. Unless it's the holidays, or a weather situation (as we recently experienced) we always try to ship within 24 hours, but we officially ask for a 2-day window.

2) Returns: Our policy is we don't accept returns, and here's why: In the six years when running both of our original stores, we had 2 -- count 'em, 2 -- returns: One was for a Oakland A's hat that the manufacturer tagged "adult" but turned out to be a youth, and we also shipped a White Rose replica St. Louis Cardinals T-Bird instead of a nearly identical Indians model... yep, that one was our mistake. The point being that to date there has not been a single complaint over the quality of what we sell. And with people getting what seems to be an "Amazon" mentality when it comes to returns, we really don't want to travel down that road. However, know that if you have an issue with anything we sell, let us know and we'll do our best to make it right. Fair enough? (See our Policy and/or Contact Pages in the footer at the bottom of any
page for more detailed information).

Enjoy your visit!
