RPPC KKK March On Washington DC, c.1920's
In the mid-1920s, the KKK marched on Washington, DC a number of times, to show their power and brought groups in from around the U.S. Crowds as large as 30,000 may have been in attendance, but not likely to be the 100,000 to 200,000 that the Klan had promised. Time Magazine of Sept. 20, 1926 said: "The Washington police were prepared for the convocation Klansmen. Every policeman on the force was called on duty. A regiment of Marines guarded the U.S. Treasury Building. But all the Kleagles and Grand Goblins climbed out of stuffy trains, put on their night-shirtish regalia, paraded peacefully without masks. At their head was Hiram W. Evans, Imperial Wizard, dentist of Dallas, Tex. Shrewd businessman, he smiled, wondered if all those behind him had paid their dues. There were floats: "Miss 100% America" and "Little Red School-house." During the next two days, the mighty Kloncilium met to ponder on next year's schemes, probably to re-elect Imperial Wizard Evans for another four-year term." The 5 historic real photo postcards offered here are original, and are from a life-long collection of important social issue related postcards. We believe these to have been from the 1926 march and parade. The cards are not postally used, all are in Near Mint condition, with exception of one that has a verticle crease from top to just below half way down the horizontal card. Backs are RPPC, with SSSS stamp box, c. 1920s (1924-29 known usage). These images are very rare, were not generally known to exist in this format, and would make an important addition to a social history collection or Black history archive.

Father Cox, Founder, Unemployed (Jobless) Party, 1932, Blue Shirts, Labor Movement
This great collection of historical labor/political movement real photos comes from the David Grubbs Collection. The central character in the story of the "Unemployed Party" of 1932 is its founder and leader, Father James Cox of Pittsburgh, PA. The Unemployed Party pursued the politicians of the day, demanding change to the horrible conditions and treatment of unemployed workers during the Great Depression. He organized his followers, known as "Blue Shirts" and made the trip through Ohio and Pennsylvania to Washington DC, there presenting his demands to his Congressmen on the steps of the Capitol. They proceeded to Creve Coeur, MO (St. Louis) in the summer of 1932 to organize his 'Jobless Party'. Cox became the party's Presidential candidate, running against (and being defeated by) Franklin Roosevelt. His march and rally on Washington, DC took place only months before the Bonus Expeditionary Force (veterans of WWI) showed up to build their tents. This was a very troubling time in American history, and Father Cox and the "Blue Shirts" of his "Unemployed" or "Jobless" Party were a central part of the movements espousing change for the common man. This fantastic RPPC collection is complete as collected by Mr. Grubbs. Each card has 'liner notes' in ink on front for publication, and has photographer shutter settings, time of day, and other specs on back along with the photographer's name, Charles F. Lemic, 214 Oregon St., Corliss Sta., Pittsburgh, PA. All are AZO with squares. This would make an amazing contribution to museum or labor movement archive. The "Blue Shirt" rally in St. Louis at the race track is fantastic, and when put all together this collection pretty well completes the history of Father Cox's "Jobless Party." About 24 images are from St. Louis, MO Raceway (Creve Coeur Jobless Party Convention), 20 are from Washington, DC and the other 12 are from the route of the Party of the Unemployed. The Washington, DC rally dates of January 8 to 12, 1932 are documented, with names, places, times, etc. A book could (and should) be published from the material in this lot. Condition is mostly Excellent with writing on front. A total of 56 different images are in this lot.
