Here is a link to the kind of thing I'm talking about: My http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-MEMORBILIA-VINTAGE-SALT-PEPPER-SHAKERS-N-R_W0QQitemZ200080387226QQihZ010QQcategoryZ29459QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem roommate collects these items and sometimes I'm ashamed that my black friends to the house because I feel I have to explain that my roommate is not racist and that they collected only for its historic / antique value … My roommate and I are white. What is your opinion on this type of collections?
I own my own antique shop and sell these items very quickly to different people. I also I have in my own house along with a lot of other antiques and collectibles primitive. They are considered an important part of our history and should be considered as such. If you have questions about of these items in your home, you should be able to discuss their interests and history of these elements.
