Your uncle has just passed away. You discover his
stash of naughty items from the local burlesque theater or
strip joint.
Don't burn them!
Don't send them to the
landfill!
Tell me about them!
They may be worth $$$!

I collect exotic dance memorabilia from burlesque
theaters, carnival "cootch" shows, strip joints of decades
ago, today's gentlemen's clubs -- wherever the striptease
was and is seen.
Such items include:

Tobacco advertising cards and photographs of early
burlesque queens.
|
Burlesque theater handbills, programs, and posters.
|
|
|
Strip club advertising such as matchbook covers,
postcards, and trading cards
|
Strippers' publicity pamphlets and photographs

|
|
"Pitch Books" about stripteasers sold by candy butchers
|
Magazines focusing on burlesque such as: Cavalcade of
Burlesque (1950's)

of the 1950's and 60's, and today's Deja vu Showgirls
|
