About Us

We've been collecting antiques for about 45 years....We were established in San Juan Bautista with our warehouse for 25 years. 

The name "Fat Willy's" originated when the owner, Bill, at 21, was working on a crew putting reflector markers down on the highway. Everyone had a nickname but Bill, so the manager of the highway crew gave him the nickname "Fat Willy" and it's stuck with him ever since.
