I've recently made a b.vikki vintage Flickr account and through it have found so many great online vintage retailers and vintage photo and ad archivists, collectors, and lovers. Among my discoveries was the
JSCU Archives flickr account.


About
JSCU - from wikipedia:

It is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church. JCSU is also a historically black college. JCSU offers an assortment of academic programs, aimed at ensuring that its graduates are prepared for success in the workforce. JCSU is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP), and Council on Social Work Accreditation (CSWE).

The photos uploaded by the university to Flickr are great!
