    Owner Ray Tillotson spent years as a performer and working backstage in theater and film, and now works closely with costumers to find the right vintage duds for their films. Credits include Gus Van Sant's "Drugstore Cowboy" and "My Own Private Idaho." Clothes date back to the 1890s, which means that some items are delicate.
