Re: [ARSCLIST] Recordings of lynchings?
Dear Roger,
I meant to reply earlier and was a little surprised that no one else
seemed to notice your comment. I'm not one to jump to conclusions, but
are you saying you sold a postcard depicting a lynching to a unknown
person for profit?
The postcard may be evidence of a serious crime. The victim's family
could be deeply hurt by the circulation of this image. Surely it would
be better kept in a reputable institution than circulating with unknown
"collectors"?

I actually sold a couple of these a few years back on eBay...

They made post cards of it with prominent citizens in front. The
postal service at one time had to make rules that no such cards would
be delivered...
