MALDEN, MA — A vintage clothing retailer started in Cambridge more than 50 years ago expanded for the first time, opening a second location in Malden's Edgeworth neighborhood. Business owner Nephtaliem McCrary continues the legacy of Great Eastern Trading Co., founded in Central Square in 1968, at Great Eastern Vintage on Highland Avenue.

The shop sells curated and affordable vintage clothing and accessories, classic formal wear, vinyl records and more. McCrary looks forward to adding a unique element to Malden's business community.
