Wanted

 

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)

Magazines featuring strip clubs, such as Cabaret of the 1950's and 60's, and today's Deja vu Showgirls

Advertisements of "shake dancers" performing in "juke joints"

Videotapes of strip performances in carnival shows, clubs, and theaters.

Costume items, Such as G-strings.
