What a pleasant, quirky and interesting shop! My husband and I wondered around for almost an hour admiring all the antique maps, documents and books. It was very lovely.

Going here was an experience that felt like stepping back in time. The building was from centuries past and the inside was filled with surprising finds in every nook and corner. We had expected everything to be very expensive based on the locale, but we were surprised at how reasonably priced the merchandise was. It was all carefully organized so that we could find what we wanted to see. The sweet lady behind the desk, in her lovely London accent, told us exactly where to look for some obscure items. We live locally but took our out-of-town guests. This will now be on our list of must-see places in Savannah.

This place is amazing! There are so many old maps, documents, books and more from all over the world. Time really got away from me in there and I wish I didnt have to go. If you are looking for antiques on paper this is the place for you!

An amazing store that takes you back in time - old maps, books, ads from varying time periods. The owners were lovely with a very cute king Charles cavalier who snores while you browse. Dont miss the lovely backyard!

Stumbled across this place while exploring Savannah. It is incredible, we spent a good 45 minutes in there but couldve stayed for much longer. There are maps from all over the world during different time periods, along with prints and maps from many wars. There are also very interesting prints of trains, old fashion, automobiles, and planes. A very kind couple owns it and are enjoyable to talk with.

Stepping into this shop was pure delight. The kind lady at the front welcomed us happily and told us where we could find everything. We ended up spending over an hour digging through the drawers and marveling over everything. We were so engrossed in the selection we couldnt believe how long we had been there when the shop keeper let us know she needed to close up. After making our purchases and leaving we realized we had stayed 30 minutes past open hours and she didnt say a word of complaint and was more than friendly while checking us out. I cannot wait to come back to this store every time Im in Savannah going forward!!!

The owners of this shop, John and Ginger are both knowledgeable about maps and prints. They have categories of maps for all the nations and states and prints on everything from roses to freak shows. It would take a person a week of 8 hour days to see all their prints.

I spent 2 hours in here and could have spent 10 more hours easily. If you love old maps and old photographs this is probably one of the best stores Ive been in.

If youre in Savannah you have to visit V and J Duncan. It makes you think of a store that would be in Diagon Alley...there are prints, maps, and books from all over the world. Savannah is a place of fascinating history and much of it is preserved at V and J Duncan.

I hardly ever write reviews but the man sitting at the desk was the nastiest, rudest man Ive ever encountered. I was actually shaking & crying to be treated in such a way. I would give negative stars if I could. Thankfully I got a better, cheaper print on Ebay. Run from this place.

It is packed with nice old maps and lithographs. An irresistible place for those who like it. You can spend as much time as you can to find bargains.Some are upscale, but you can get a lithograph from the 1800s for around $ 10. I saw various antique maps in the US, but this one is quite reasonable.I liked the hand-painted lithographs made in the 1880s, so I bought them for $ 35 ☺︎(Addition)When I revisit the next day, the hand-painted Peony lithograph is $ 30 with a 40 * 50cm frame! It was so nice that I bought more.Take a closer look not only on the shelves but also on the walls inside the store, there may be bargains.
