The Lester Glassner African American Experience Collection, 1850-2005

25 boxes
The Lester Glassner African American Experience Collection contains black collectibles, black memorabilia, negrobilia, black americana, and black ephemera—the term or phrase is a matter of personal choice. Nevertheless, they all refer to a vast array of items made in, or with the image of an African American. Mr. Glassner amassed the collection to document overtime how the African American community and culture was represented in the United States; It was a decision made well before Black Memorabilia became a capital letter phrase, before it became the rather controversial racial/economical/political issue that has concerned black as well as white collectors ever since.
