Comprised of over 1,000 objects, the collection incorporates lithographic and photographic postcards from the early 1900s to promotional lampoons to paragons of twentieth century black leadership.” …. R Sadinsky, University of Kentucky Curator of Collections & Exhibitions. (excerpt from this book) This is a collection of thoughts and images Mrs. Quisenberry has gathered over the past 30 years. The book contains color photos of actual postcards from the late 1890s through the 1940s, that reflect the mood and attitude of this era – this was the popular media of those times. Throughout this collection you will learn much about the history of American culture and ourselves.
