About This Item
Chicago: Geo. Lauterer Corp, 1972. Staplebound. Good. Quarto, 15pp., illustrated. LACKING one leaf (pp. 3-4), and with the order form torn out. A few stains and small creases; overall in good condition. Despite the missing page, an otherwise wonderfully illustrated catalog displaying the bejeweled and otherwise well-appointed ceremonial regalia used in the IBPOEW and its female auxiliary, the oldest extant African-American fraternal organization in America. Aprons, gloves, gavels, collars, emblems, books, etc. all abound. A highly ephemeral piece; we found none similar separately listed in OCLC. An important visual document from the era just after the Civil Rights Movement, when these kinds of segregation-era organizations with long and proud histories were in a state of flux.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
