The American Museum of Paramusicology (AMP) holds a rare vinyl copy of queer, Quaker, activist, and musician Bayard Rustin's “Elizabethan Songs & Negro Spirituals.” The props department for director George C. Wolfe's recent Netflix biopic Rustin used a hi-res scan of the AMP's album cover to create a likeness in the film.
