Goth culture (Subculture)

This collection contains books, issues of magazines and catalogs, manga, and a pin, all collected throughout the 1980s and 1990s by Charlene Fossum, a Black goth who grew up in the Philadelphia area. Items were either purchased by mail order, from stores in Philadelphia, or stores in New York City (e.g. Tower Records), and are connected either to alternative goth subculture or to Japanese style and culture.
