Black people and Dress, 1920s
Collection by The Many Black Histories
Black people and Dress, 1920s board created by Kristine Maitland . I am a proponent of citing sources when possible - to my mind the photos lose their significance & relevance when there is no context. My thanks to the Toronto Vintage Society, the Toronto Burlesque and Vaudeville Alliance, as well as members of the Society for Creative Anachronism for their assistance. Images displayed here are not owned by the poster and shown here for educational purposes.
