You never see these anymore, and for good reason, because they can be interpreted as demeaning to a signifacntly beautiful culture of people in our country, athough in this day, they have become highly collectible objects of art, and viewed mostly as such by prominant collecters of Black Americana and some types of African American Art.

Up for auction we have

A VERY RARE Antique Black Boy Figurine

Little Black Sambo Like Porcelain Bisque Figure

He is positively precious as he appears to be pooping into somebody's open suitcase!

A tiny little guy, he measures 2 1/8 inches high by 2 1/8 wide including the "potty"

He is clearly marked on the bottom in a round, life-saver-type of circle

GERMANY

(with three little dots . . . between the Y and the G)

There is a neatly constructed hole manufactured into his back side which apparently can be filled with water. When held upright after filling, we presume it would appear that he's relieving himself...although we have not tried this ourselves.

My guess is that a true collector of these will know all about it.
