Dear Cheryl,
  You might want to try British museums that exhibited
Egyptian forgeries (especially from 1890-1920 when
Britain occupied Egypt)I know their was a whole
Egyptian industry that sprang up in reaction to
European demand for anything and everything from the
region. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to find
that someone would take these forgeries and try to
turn them into an exhibit. Hope this helps and Good
Luck!
