Spectrum In Black - Poems By 20th Century Black Poets Vinyl Record Album
This rare two-record album includes forty-nine poems by twenty-eight 20th century black poets. These poems were chosen from hundreds of published and unpublished poems, many of which were presented to classes on tape and discussed with students and teachers. The poems included here were chosen to be recorded because they represent a spectrum of modern, black, poetic expression in structure, theme and emotional content. The protest, love, anger, personal incident, historical perspective, and portraiture inherent in these selections offer insight into 20th century black literary America. 
Both records are very very close to NM, extra conservatively graded, high gloss shine only a couple very small, very light cosmetic marks keeping these from full NM. Jacket also has very little,light signs of wear, excellent bright clean artwork.
