Rust & Dust Since 1932
 A Seattle institution for nearly eight decades, Hardwick’s is currently in its fourth generation of family members manning the shop. Business dates back to the days of the Great Depression when Charles Dean Hardwick set up shop in 1932 after losing his real estate company in the market crash. The shop was originally a secondhand store and Charles used his own office furniture as the store’s original inventory. He also purchased and sold used goods from customers and stocked factory seconds and damaged freight from Milwaukee Railroad and Union Pacific Railroad.
