Easter Egg: Lot #1888 is a reference to the original Aunt Jemima image of a "mammy" caricature that depicted female slaves as happy to be enslaved, who cared for the white family of the slave owners and ignored their own. The caricature portrays an obese, coarse, maternal figure. She has great love for her white " family," but often treated her own family with disdain. Although she had children, sometimes many, she was completely desexualized. She "belonged" to the white family. Unlike Sambo, she was a faithful worker. She had no black friends; the white family was her entire world.
