ClintonATLANTIC A VEINGARRET IANTIQUESBY EILEEN PLATZIn 1955, John Anderson came to New York from his parents%u2019 farm in Indiana. Settling in the Heights, because he found it to be just the right mixture of small town community and City sophistication, John has called the Heights and Cobble Hill home ever since and has become one of the neighborhood%u2019s growing corps of spirited merchants.John's shop, THE GARRET ANTIQUES, deals mainly in American and English period furniture. His inventory is a diverse, eclectic one as a quick survey of the deep, roomy shop will indicate. Side by side, one finds a velvet Victorian sofa, a Queen Ann tilt top bird cage table and an 18th Century American Hepplewhite mirror. Secretaries, decorative screens, chests of drawers and gloriously framed oil paintings compete for adoption into local brownstoners' decorating schemes. John accounts for the store%u2019s eclecticism by admitting his reluctance to pass up any piece that's beautiful and interesting regardless of period or origin %u201c I've never regretted any purchase I've made,%u201d he observes, %u201c but I sure have regretted passing things up.%u201dInterested in acting, John came to New York originally to pursue a career in film making.After some minor movie roles, his career shifted in focus to producing and directing. This orientation culminated in his position as a Far Eastern representative for a major filmmaking company. A year in the Orient rekindled John%u2019s love of antiquities that had been part of his Indiana boyhood. %u201c My parents always had a great respect for the old people as well as objects,%u201d noted John. %u201c The family farmhouse was full of goodies from earlier days, much more prim itive Americana, however, than you would find in New England,%u201d he continued.After his filmmaking stint in the Far East, John was looking to try something new. Admittedly artistic with a design bent, he was encouraged by his friend George Boan to get involved in antiques. Boan had one of the first antique shops on Atlantic Ave. eight years ago. He and John became associates in the business, but now John, operates THE GARRET himself as Boan is relocating to Concord, Mass.Over the years the shop has developed a reputation for its assortment of Wingback chairs and for unusual upholstered pieces in general. As he became increasingly aware of the problems collectors had with replacement and restoration of upholstery fabrics in antiqueoHOX0.furniture, John decided t could better serve his hi he had some facility forj < upholstery.
