Trash and Vaudeville

Trash and Vaudeville is a clothing store on East Seventh Street, characterized by a split entrance that leads into two distinct rooms. Founded in nineteen seventy-five by Ray Goodman, the boutique originated on Saint Marks Place. It became a fixture of the local rock and punk scene by stocking items like bondage pants, studded belts, and band t-shirts at a time when such styles were difficult to find elsewhere.
