From the years of slavery through the years of civil rights, images of black people have taken many forms. Some of these images were positive and some negative and stereotypical. Together they help us see and measure the history of racial attitudes in America, and make up the growing field of what is called Black Collectibles. These collectibles help to chronicle an important aspect of American history. Hundreds of these items are gathered together for Images in Black: 300 Years of Black Collectibles, and are illustrated in full color. Tin toys, banks, games, trade cards, music, tobacco, food products, and many more items are included in this book. The text helps the reader understand the history, and the price guide makes the volume useful for evaluating the market in black collectibles.
