  • Limbo was a boutique which was opened in 1965 by Martin (Marty) Freedman, originally at 24 St. Mark's Place between Second and Third Avenues in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The shop moved to 4 St. Mark's Place on the same block in 1967, and closed in 1975 (giving way to another counterculture clothing store, Trash and Vaudeville, which catered to punk fashions for 41 years at the address). In the May 1968 issue of eye Magazine, Norman Steinberg described Limbo as: "...the East Village clothier of the 'tuned-in' generation." He went on to write: "For the uninitiated, Limbo is much more than just a clothing store. It is a social, intellectual, and entertainment experience that appeals to people of all ages, races, creeds, colors and political persuasions." In his 2016 memoir, American Dreamer: My Life in Fashion & Business, Tommy Hilfiger recalled: "Limbo was the best clothing store in the world. [I] wanted to make People's Place feel just like it, only even cooler." In her article, "The Birthplace of American Vintage – How East Village Shop Limbo Made Secondhand Clothes Cool," for New York Magazine, 50th The Cut, Ada Calhoun reported: "Nearly everyone who made the East Village scene in the late 1960s has a Limbo story."
