In 1998 and 1999 he served as guest curator for the African American Museum in Dallas, Texas, to exhibit the country’s largest private collection of Negro League memorabilia under the banner Triumph Over Adversity.

A previous exhibit was created of African Americans on postage stamps from around the world, entitled “Stamps of Recognition.” The 80-panel exhibit toured the United States for three years in the late 1990’s, featuring stamps, coinage and signatures of more than 60 prominent African American Jazz greats, abolitionists, writers, historians, actors and entertainers. In 2000, he served on the United States Postal Service Advisory Board for the “Legends of Baseball” stamp series.

His last exhibit was: The National Pastime in Black and White: The Negro Baseball Leagues, 1867-1955, by Exhibits USA, which toured nationally from 2003, with a final destination of Dayton, Ohio, in April of 2006.

One of his exhibits debuted at the Bruce Watkins Cultural Heritage Center: “Benjamins in Black,” a historical overview of African Americans on monetary issues by the U.S. Government and American businesses. The 18-panel (now 22 panels) display features such notables as; Booker T. Washington, George Washington Carver, Azie Taylor Morton, Louie Armstrong, Marian Anderson and other prominent personalities.
