Description: BLACK COLLECTIBLES SOLD IN AMERICA by P.J. Gibbs, Collector Books, KY, 1987/1996. From a prolific author of books about antiques comes this study of Black collectibles. From the comic and controversial images of American blacks by 19th century artists, to the Art Deco style of the 20’s and 30’s, WPA artists of the depression, to the quite different images of the Civil Rights Movement of the ‘60’s this book depicts the full range of collectibles. “This book will discuss the Black Collectibles market focusing on the controversy; Black Collectibles trend and development; prices of Black Collectibles [1987]; where to find Black Collectibles; collecting; classification of Black Collectibles; and a guide to using this book. A number of selected color photographs and a list of museums with Black memorabilia have been included. The intent of this book is not to present information about every company, individual, and country that made Black Collectibles, rather the attempt is to give the reader enough general information to gain some understanding about the different types of Black material culture that he or she will encounter.” 8.5“ x 11.5“ softback in very good condition. 294 pages.
