Abstract

Blank note cards and one greeting card from eight different publishers reproducing photographs of muscular black male physiques, some nude, by several American photographers. Nineteen of the cards feature tipped-on real-photo analog prints. With the exception of three cards, all include the envelope and are sealed in the original clear mylar sleeve; 11 have a sticker on the verso of the sleeve from Wild Card, a gay gift shop in San Francisco’s Castro District open from 1996 to 2018. Also, five black-and-white laminated bookmarks from one of the card publishers, Brothers (Oakland, Calif.).
