Black memorabilia is still one of the hottest items being collected today, although it is growing harder and harder to find good pieces. This new book helps the collector see what is available in the market place, with full color illustrations of hundreds of items. They include kitchen items, like wall pockets, mammy memos, salt and peppers, cookie jars, and more, as well as advertising, household goods, and ephemera. Each is shown in full color and is accompanied by the current market price. Prices differ in from coast to coast and auction prices differ from shop prices. Prices are also affected by condition and availability. As this area of collecting continues to grow, more and more examples find their way into the market place. For the experienced collector or the novice, this is an invaluable reference. It definitely needs to be added to your black memorabilia library.
