Powerful Images and History,
By
This review is from: The Art and History of Black Memorabilia (Hardcover)
Wow! One of the first books that I've found that doesn't talk about Black Memorabilia as commodity but rather as a history. There are no prices guides attached to the pictures. The book is a time line of black history. It's not incredibly detailed but still nonetheless very powerful. The items in this book are photographed beautifully. Lester V. Buster shows wide range of images: slave shackles, dolls (from Mammy to Mr. T), images of blacks in advertising (from derogatory and dehumanizing to that of Black American heroes). This is a very powerful and informative book for anyone, especially historians and collectors.

A Beautiful Book About Beautiful People!!!!!!,
By
This review is from: The Art and History of Black Memorabilia (Hardcover)
I am not a black memorabilia collector but I enjoyed this book for its array of historical facts concerning the history of African Americans. Larry Buster wonderfully illustrates this book with over 200 photos. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Black history and collectibles.
