Black collectibles (circa 1920 to 1950’s) produced in several countries (USA, Japan and Europe).

Usually feature black people in stereotypical situations such as performing household duties. After the 1950’s (post civil rights movement) black collectibles were considered insulting and derogatory and many pieces were destroyed and production of these pieces came to an end. However, in the 1970’s interest in these pieces returned especially among high profile African Americans. Black Americana collectors have brought profile to these pieces resulting in prices to rise.
