Black Americana Postcard
Price Guide : A Century of History Preserved on Postcards
by Joseph L. MashburnBook Description
The first-ever comprehensive Black postcard price guide. It values, lists and
illustrates (with over 550 images) thousands of blacks on postcards from 1893 to 1980 and
contains not only cards from America but also those from all countries in Europe. There
are near complete checklists of hundreds of artists who painted beautiful children and
finely attired adults, of cakewalks and minstrels and comical situations. Shown also are
those that sterotype blacks and use demeaning racial slants and vulgar captions that would
be unthinkable today. The Real Life chapters lists works of hundreds of postcard
publishers who sent their perssonel through the South to photograph black at work and
play. Advertising, Real Photos (some extremely rare that include those that were
politically motivated as well as some of the cruelties of early lynchings and riots),
Sports, Entertainers and Topicals are also covered. Although it illustrates the unpleasant
and difficult times, it also relates the great strides that the African American community
made in their efforts to gain equality. This book is a must for all students of black
history, postcard collectors, and collectors of black ephemera.
