The Iceberg Slim Appreciation Thread

Robert Beck/Iceberg Slim is one of my favorite authors. He was thee BEST selling black author in America for years. He also gave square society a glimpse into the secret world of the black hustler, especially the even more esoteric world of the PIMP.


Here are some photos of this dark Prince:

Him and Donald Goines are my favorite authors of all time. Not because of pimp shyt, but because of their uncanny ability to bring you into their world. I'll add more later.
