Box lots usually, that also helps me aquire a lot of crap I don't want or can't give away,but just can't bring myself to throw away. I've probably got three truck loads of good crap. Oh yea Black stuff. It's kinda tuff to find and can be in many different fields. I like hunting for it kinda of a challenge and never on the E. To easy.If ya seen the pic I had of Uncle Mose a while back those bring decent $. The rest is reasonable. On note. Whoppie Goldberg has or had a crew of traveling pickers and buyers building her a collection. Must be nice. (in reply to lobeycat) Post #: 10

That is a really neat piece. Haven't seen it in a while.     Black memorabilia is hard to come up with in my area, postcards now and then. I have a few of them someplace as well. Its a shame a person can not dislplay everything they have. I guess some folks actually can, but I could never come close to doing it. (in reply to capsoda) Post #: 12

Living in Georgia I have seen items like this for years. I have a "PUBLICITY CLIP SHEET ": FOR THE 1938 movie "HARLEM ON THE PRAIRIE" which touts that it is the 1st all "NEGRO WESTERN". One clip says "THEIR SIX-GUNS SPIT COLD-BLUE RHYTHM AND RED HOT SWING ! THE famous  actor HERBERT JEFFERIES is the star.[ One of the actors, I can't recall his name right now ,later was in AMOS AND ANDY] THE last I heard there are no known copies of this film. There were two more" HARLEM ON THE" movies made.
